not that anybody cares, but the America's Cup is all screwed up. Used to have several countries..10+ challenge for it. Now the boats are too #### expensive. Team Oracle's boats coast $110 each. They totaled one of them earlier in summer.
Only 4 countries even competed for it this go around. Way too expensive and exotic now.
I only keep up with it because my grandfather was an avid sailor that kind of got me hooked on it back when I was younger.
