Round 1 Playoff Pool Champion REVEALED

Now the moment you've all been waiting for - it's time to announce our first round winner in the 2007 Blogger Playoff Pool!

Drumroll please...

Wait, wait, stop the drums. What is this I see? Two winners? That's unpossible!

And yet, that's what happened. You see, I had a tiebreaker built in for exactly this occasion, and...it backfired. Turns out I needed a tiebreaker for the tiebreaker. What are the odds, right?

Okay, kick up the drums again.

The winners:

Duncan from FlamesBlog

and

Matthew Macaskill from Current Habs History

Congratulations, guys!

As their prize, each winner will get to select two of the other pool competitors to write a loving and heartfelt post about their respective teams - that's a lot of Flames and Habs love out in the world! I'll announce the "winners" as selected by Duncan and Matthew here as soon as they make their decisions.

We kick off the second round tomorrow night and all 34 poolers' picks will be available right here for your perusal and general entertainment, so be sure to stop by and see everyone's predictions.


Oh, and for anyone who wonders if I tried to rig this thing in my favor...I finished 30th. Out of 34 players. Yay.

Ooo! Ooo! Was I last? That was my goal. Winning is for suckers. I learnt that from my team.

Congrats to my counterpart in his victory, may those I have chosen enjoy their writing of the Habs! :D

Muahahaha.

Hey, how do we know who you chose?

You'll find out soon enough... hehe

My picks are in, I figure CC is just waiting on Duncan's picks or she merely hasn't had the time to get the info out to those who have this awesome opportunity to write about the Habs and Flames... :D
