Love Sultan. So much so I can even get over Scherzer's ugly mug in the corner.

I voted for GRAND FINALE because I don't like the way that the photo of Noah in SULTAN OF SWAAT is buried among all that text.

Can't help but wonder if trade rumors hurt Curtis's chances. There might be a grievance filed in Stockholm by his agents.
