Go to Post If I can make one wish, it would be having Dean and Woodie read one of these writings of mine, so I can tell them "I get it! Give me time and give me inspiration, and one day I will be ready to take over the torch." - Ken Leung [more]

I wonder if the time between matches was not entered correctly at CT. Almost all our matches were exactly 1 hour apart. And, I was a little surprised at the lack of variety in the pairings, we were with and then against many of the same teams.

Maybe we should be thankful we weren't against the same teams twice like last year. But, I wouldn't mind going 45 min or 1 hr 30 on occasion, so we could see a wider variety of the competitors on the field.
