It looks like everyone at the top of the leaderboard is going to start splitting up since their picks are all different.

@wolfmanhowl, very nice card on your part.  Gutsy call going against Sandro.  I was very clost to doing the same thing, but in the end, went with the general consensus.

Mann is going to beat Pat I think.  Who has the nade tat?

No, Chris Saunders has one on top of his right hand.  I saw it when they showed the weigh-in stare down.

I'm not sure, but there was a guy on a recent TUF season that had a straight razor on his elbows "because they cut people".  I thought that was at least mildly original.

Agreed.  But Saunders is a lot tougher than I expected.
