And again..

Oracle took Monday's race by 33 sec. NZ had the favored leeward position at the start, but Oracle got up on her foils and led by 5 sec at the reaching mark. Her lead just kept growing.. It's now 8:8 in wins, but only 8:6 on the scoreboard. I'm really torn - not sure if I want NZ to get another win and end this thing, or for USA to get 3 more wins and keep the cup. If the US keeps the cup, I think things will stagnate. Might make things more interesting in the future if NZ wins it this time. Other opinions welcome..
