    If Jesus doesn't pick, Homer goes with Union and Genk. Doh!

    QFs


    Results:

    Results
    1. The Doctor 1-0 Blueshirt (Sparta Rotterdam X2-FC Utrecht 1)
    4. Mark - Lloo Postponed

    2. Jesus Petry 1-1 Homer Simpson (Cercle Brugge X2-Genk 1)
    3. Jesper Lauridsen 2-1 MH (Freiburg 1-FC K%ln X2)


    What happened?

    4. Mark - Lloo
    Go Ahead Eagles 1X - Heerenveen 2
    Lille 1 - Strasbourg X2

    Mark picked Heerenveen and Lille. Lleo didn't pick. Therefore, the
    Mark would get the best outcome of the two matches he picked. Lille
    lost to Strasbourg 4-1. Go Ahead Eagles versus Heerenveen was
    postponed (was always scheduled to take place?) on February 11

    So, I could ignore the postponed match and give the win to Lleo, but
    it seems to go against the spirit of the rule of favoring the player
    who picks. Therefore, I declare this a postponed match.

    The make up game will be based on the midweek Champions League
    matches. Stay tuned

    Congratulations, you just failed the evil gamemaster exam.
