This should work: Quarterfinals picks close 15 minutes prior to commencement. Choose one winner from men's, one from women's. Wager for men's tour = avatar rights. Wager for women's tour = signature line rights. Win: retain rights. Lose: sacrifice rights to Metard (enforced by Central Scrutinizers, aka "Simod?", if necessary.) Repeat for Finals. Repeat for next stop's Quarterfinals and Finals.
Another thing about watching contest (I was thinking about this one in particular), is you can dial in the wave after watching it from your desk for hours. I feel like I could paddle out to Karamas and have a pretty good idea of the set up. Maybe not totally, but not going in "blind" either. I would love to ride that wave when it is glassy and 4-6'!!!! Side note, did y'all see that new flight direct from Newark to Singapore? 18 hours to connect to Indo!!!
When I was in the boy scouts they drilled flag respect into our heads to the point where any time I see the stars and stripes I'm making sure everything is in order. It's a respect thing, and a patriotic thing, but above all a personal thing. When I see the flag it stirs deep feelings mostly relating to friends and family who died defending it. I don't think it should touch the ground. Back to your regularly scheduled programming.....
It is a piece of cloth, nothing more. "friends and family" that died in battle for US (!!) were fighting for something way more important than a piece of cloth. If morons want to step on it, burn it, wipe their nose with it, or shove it up their ass, who cares? They are morons......
I’m with you HH, if more Americans respected this Country, our flag, the Pledge of Allegiance, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, etc. there would be far less of a divide and more unity among the population.
Put your avatar/sig lines up for wager...

Appears Brazilian YT users are trolling this one, up in arms over the decision, and are then called out in English by one of their own, lol...
