Now it can be argued that only Archer ( I agree with JAY) is in the top ten.

Let's share opinions as to WHAT HAPPENED.

Champions were outsourced to lower cost of living countries like everything else so the prize money would seem like it is more ....

Have you heard the term, 'You gain strength through Adversity", well they did and we aren't.
