Cool heads and restrained hearts are needed as we approach the final turn. Dont breath and dont faint. Just stay focused and feel the energy and let it return. Wise words for anyone who has ever been down and out with nowhere left to turn. Its at times like this when you have to trust the process. Trust the body to do enough and trust the mind and emotions to fall in line.
All our gallant teams have been trough hell to get this far. Many have fallen and been unable to keep the pace. You that are left are the crème de la crème. All winners, but only one will stand at the end.
The Bonus feature is just another way of testing your credentials . Like everyday life, there are wins and losses but there are also opportunities and regrets. Its all in play...
This weeks sword of Damocles asks you to wager your knowledge of the Human spirit against skill. Predict up to 3 teams that will overcome superior (the table does not lie) opponents. 15 points per correct answer. An incorrect guess will be -5.
