Cornell!

Cornell, sure, though I like Copley more, the more I look at him.

Candida said...

Cornell, though Copley's got great spirit.

Poor Copley didn't have a chance in this crowd. It's a good old-fashioned drubbing, as he ends up on the wrong side of a 13-1 margin. Maybe he'll do better Francesco Clemente in First Round Elimination.
