    Team Oracle (USA)

    Do you believe in miracles?!?!?!?!

    If Team Oracle wins today's race, they will have overcome a 8-1 deficit to win a Best-of-17 series in sailing. This feat has never, as far as I know, been accomplished in America's Cup history. I shall open the biggest USA beer possible if we win.

    I don't know anything about this sport but a buddy of mine said that there aren't even any Americans on the team. He said its pretty much Australians.

    If that's true you may want to open a Carlton Draught

    My guess would be either sailing matches, or fights between David Hartman and Tony Mastro.*

    Anxious to hear myself...good poster

    Murrica! Wow, what a comeback! Even more amazing that USA started this series 0 to -2 from a foul in a prior race.

    The new boats are awesome.

    I referee intramural sports here at MSU. I'm only a mere college student here. I usually do volleyball and basketball. Also, I wear a ref outfit to all MSU basketball games.

    This thread is hilarious... I'm all for the cannons idea. Add in some eye patches and a jolly roger flag and we now have PIRATE WARS!!!!

    Cowherd's rant about the America's Cup the other day cracked me up. He went on and on and on about how stupid it was.

    are you trying to get shot? if not, can you please jump out there and call a foul every now and then?

    For one of the out of conference games, a ref did come to me to ask if a ball was in or out since I was standing right by where it went out. Usually the refs do come by and we have a few laughs as I mimick them pregame.
