I play against the mafia guy who is division 1 more well known as Trofo, i was expecting to see some esports related question on this round, but luckily for the 99.9% of the pool they arent.
About the questions, were a good ones, but everything can happen in everyone of them so i dont know what to expect from this round.

No bro 
Nadal keeps winning, maybe he wants to win one last trophy in Madrid, but old man is so low ranked now in ATP list.
Nadal keeps winning, maybe he wants to win one last trophy in Madrid, but old man is so low ranked now in ATP list.
He's is low in ATP ranking list, he's been in the top 10 since 2005 and only dropped out last year simply because of the injury that kept him out for a really long time, and there was no way he's ATP points would have remained, so, in other words his low ranking isn't a factor decided by him playing terribly or losing his form, but rather not playing at all. Unlike other players around equal rankings currently as Nadal, Nadal will get to play every major grand slam this year, if he doesn't withdraw through injury or other reasons, and he wouldn't need to go through any qualifying phase for that.

I just submitted my answers, there is no need for me to be lurking around over one pick when I could settle for better alternatives

And I am out of the cup, business as usual 
Very good news For me I see there is chance of another rematch with Slissy if we both get passed the next Cup round against Woodie and Dittoup.
Stairs are realigning
Tennis almost proved to provide some clues to my picks, but everything more or less went as expected in Madrid even if it feels like everyone's expecting Nadal to drop his racquet!
Thank you logo bro Nadal keeps winning, maybe he wants to win one last trophy in Madrid, but old man is so low ranked now in ATP list.

It is so sad to be out of the cup this early. 
My players have lost some morale after this early elimination but I'm trying to prepare them for our next game. We need to be ready for a tough challenge against vd309. It is nice to see an F1 question in this round. To be honest I haven't been following NBA regularly this season. But I will do my best on that question too. 
Seeing Palmer among the questions reminds me of how I got eliminated in the cup.

If I remember correctly, the questions for the cup competition have not been published yet. I looked to see if I missed it but I couldn't find it, are you sure?
Round 8 was published and I should have sent the answers within 2-3 hours after it was published. If I missed the cup questions, I would like to answer them quickly

No, they weren't posted yet. Sorry for the confusion. I thought that you are facing jayce in this round and that you are still waiting for the questions to be posted. All good

I think it could work but only in cup games when there will be options for penalties incase there is a tie, and why would anyone deliberate lose to win a point when that means they won't qualify ? that's a conflict of interest every question and points counts towards a person qualifying so if they chose "No" and don't qualify intentionally, yes they'd win a point, but still not qualify at the end o the day, so they win a battle but lose the war.
I'm still not certain that I understand what you are proposing. So, you mean that the question in the second round of a cup week is who will qualify in the first part of the week? If that's the case, then it could work. But that kind of question is impossible to research so it would be more based on luck than on ability to research.
I'm actually not proposing anything my response is directed towards the previous post saying it could work if implemented, but of course there will be something issues here and there towards approaching the best way to put such question into play without possible exploitation or loop holes at first. However, as the boss already said there wouldn't be any need to worry about that, at least for now.
--------------------------
The tennis question is really going to be tough, Alcaraz with a definite tough game, Struff have been really impressive in the past few weeks winning his last 7 games in straight set and most of them are against top class players like Auger-Aliassime, Rune, Taylor Fritz and Ugo Humbert, His last defeat was from Sinner. So, I'm might just wait this out without Alcaraz because he's got a cast around his injured right hand and I don't know if he's fully healed or would be able to play through it all week long, however there aren't too many tough potential match up on his side of the bracket, so it's a really tricky tricky decision here, could probably have been easier If Casper Ruud was on his side of the bracket, given the impressive form Ruud is currently on.

I'm impatiently waiting for the questions to come. I hope it will be mainly soccer and basketball and it will be better in terms of competition 
Other sports may increase the chances of a draw between us, so I would like it to be all about soccer.
May the better man win, jayce. Good luck to you too

Since I don't follow tennis that closely, I thought that he already ended his career and I was very surprised to see him in the tournament. It's pretty admirable that he managed to beat the 11th player on the ATP list (de Minaur) so I guess he still has enough motivation and strength to play against the best.

I'd like to bet on Hhampuz against a rusty Buwaytress team
Yo agree here, this needs a Sportsbet special Hhampuz beat one top guy already, and he did super good in last season cup IIRC
Why you all be hating on me :p
I backed Chi20 all the way last season but I'd back Hhampuz too -- they seem really good at KO comps. I wouldn't bet on myself, every win has been a scrape, every loss has been devastating (refer to my GD).
Hhampuz will have to wait, though, right now it's one of my old rivals...
Now it is time to get back in BSFL title league run and next game is with brother team buwaytress.
Our supporters are ready for another spectacle

Nah, don't worry - we won't have questions about BSFL in BSFL.
Well - maybe later, when we go global and have 20 million players and fans screaming outside of our windows.
We'll see what we can do about betting though. We usually reserve it for the Cup Finals but Hhampuz - buwaytress is a duel worth betting on.

No, no... I don't think it's a good idea to have questions on BSFL. Actually, I'm not sure how would those questions be settled. If one's progression to the next round depends on one questions and it's a question on who will progress, how would you settle that? It would be impossible.
Plus, there will always be suspicion that someone deliberately lost just to get one point. I don't think that we should do that.

He probably mean the next cup questions because those two will play against each another on the cup next round. He even had already submitted his answers for round 8 so yeah that should be in context for the next cup question
@Hhampuz : gosh chill abit will ya mate. Out of the 8 league rounds so far you have been the first submitter for 5 rounds, thats one heck of a accomplishment. As for myself, I havent even check the question yet lol so Im taking my sweet time to enjoy for now

May the worst loser win jayce
It was a tight match, and we had an advantage because you played 2 tiring games this week. Good game slaman29, good luck for your league matches!May the worst loser win jayce

But I don't think I can progress much myself. When I look at my possible competitors, I think I will be eliminated soon
It seems like strong names have always come to me and my next opponent is jayce.
I honestly don't think I'm good at some sports predictions, especially in sports predictions other than football and basketball, I'm weak. Let's see how far I can go in the cup this time.

Cup fixture : Slissy vs Woodie
Good luck to you Slissy, hope this will be a late birthday present ***just a hint I don't plan on leaving the cup any time soon***
It was actually a close one as I thought @MaaManda was going to get me this time around but a change of tactic got the job done and fingers crossed that I can go all the way

Nadal pulling off that win against De Minaur killed my only chance to advance. Congrats on advancing to the next cup round execijutiere.
This is the second time i'm facing vivekdkhyani's team, last season wasn't even close (6-2). I'll do my best to secure the win this time and keep the momentum going.
