To get a complete list of the teams entered Entries for teams in Sao Paulo Brazil. Now how will you know which teams are good and which aren’t. Well you can read my blogs about it Here is a link which will take you to the four blogs I wrote discussing my thoughts Linda’s Blogs about the contest. If you click on each blog you will get some of my thoughts. You can just copy my entry if you like and make any changes to it you want. But I will say that since I wrote it I think that USA2 might not be as good as I had thought since they have been weakened by the tragic death of Dick Freeman so you probably want to make a change there.
Whom do you pick for the third place? In case of needing a tie-breaker, we will look at the third place pick to attempt to break the tie.
