Like a lot of folks I was pretty skeptical of the boats, but have come to see that at least for one year's go-around they have made for an interesting finals. Oracle has had a few 'match points' and won every one, including today's sweep of two races. If I were a betting man I would still bet on the Kiwis, and I hope they ultimately win, but I enjoy seeing the underdogs make it interesting. How cool would a sudden death race be.

I don't get NBC Sports Two because I'm too cheap to pay the monopolistic cable rates where I live, but I envy those who are following this in real time.
