Around the globe in 500 words more or less this is what is happening, Lets start with Europe they seem to be the topic these days in Sports especially the World Cup and is it the French or Croatia I think the latter may surprise them but it will be a shock I read where they will be the second smallest Country to win if they do ever that sounds hard for US we lost to Trinidad-Tobago not sure of the name but they were smaller than Galveston, Texas I hear. Anyway in Polo in the UK in the British Open it may have been a shocker as RH and Big Ben Solemoni a Yank took down the undefeated Park Place in what I would guess was an upset in the second game it was four very determined English Players knocking out Alfi Investments with 2 Pieres on it maybe not an upset as El Ramso is also undefeated but doing well all on there own. So one yank makes it through to the semis and there will be one more tomorrow as La Indiana and Michael Bickford duel it out with Big Boy J and Valiente. Next door in France as St Tropez it is another set of yanks doing well as young gun Grant Palmer seems headed to the finals of the 10 goal and Pop Geoff Palmer still has a chance but have not heard results for the 15 goal played today I think.
On this side if the planet in Greenwich it is some old favorites of Santa Barbara doing well Mariano Gonzalez is doing well and in a run to get to the finals of the Silver Cup with Postage Stamp and Mrs Gundlach also 2 players who were often here Kris Kampsen and Matias Magrini are dueling Mr Gonzalez .
Here is California it was a very good opening as Klentner Ranch was getting thrashed by 5 in the second and got going and whipped up on FMB, defending champs of the PCO to go to 1 and 0 and also getting there was Lucchese surviving a big time war with in Sol De Agusto and the De Narvaez family in OT as they roll on . So Sunday will be fun but why is Jimmy Newman one of the few people who knows how to make 3 games matter in a four team tournament . The Rincon League also had a finals today as Mrs Hanna Zavaleta took down her Honey Julio as WHY NOT took no prisoners and smashed NOVIS in the James Colt finals.
Why is there a draw for second round with 4 teams ??????? This makes it a 3 game tournament ! Winners Play Winners and Losers play losers it makes it a much better Tournament and always will and I do not see why Professional Mangers can not see this, am I WRONG ?? Everyone is still in it after 2 games so the 3rd one is important , just a question ?? Like announcing it brings a crowd and the game to life.
see ya
Crowder- The Skene was a 5 team tournament, not 4. So teams only played two bracket games not three. Next time you have questions on the format feel free to call me and I would be happy to explain. Melanja
