spread during this election campaign. To delay the match would defeat
that purpose. That Sam Sloan happens to be a kiddie f*cker is
convenient to my purpose." - Bill Brock (referring to this match), June

ICC!

I didn't watch the match on ICC and I haven't seen anything posted
here. Is the match over?

Since I haven't heard anything, can I assume that it didn't go well
for the good guy?
