Rafa defeats RRBC to win 5th RG title

I’m too emotional to write in a coherent manner, so I’ll let Rudyard Kipling do the talking, with a line from my favourite poem; “If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run – Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it, And—which is more—you’ll be a Man my [...]

I haz a sad. RAndy, Ferru and Juanqui all lost today, which is pretty fail.
