I get the nuance and the 'nobody knows for sure' I just sympathize for the guy who got sniped at noon today on a card he most likely (not guaranteed) was going to win..... maybe he came over the to and ultimately won the card. Great DiMaggio too!

Agree with this. Hard to convince me that the extra day did anything but give more people more time to think about just going for it.
