How did that happen?
There were 4/5 of them at the front, then they suddenly disappeared?

Only Columbia chance was maybe Burghardt
People talk George but he really isn’t a true contender anymore.

ES describe Pippo and Tom as conjoined twins
I would say that its more accurate to describe Pippo as a remora on the Boonen shark
