Congratulations, Mr. Ellison! Now it’s time to get back to manage your company, which has been flagging somewhat of late.

WE WON!!!!
WE WON!!!!
WE WON!!!!
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
Greatest comeback in the history of sports!!!
Never seen anyone come back from behind like this and take it all!!!
The official score is Oracle 9-8 but, the real story is they won by 3!!!
After being penalized by two races Oracles actual win is 11-8!!!
And! They scored a new world record for completing the race today.
Just Amazing!!!

And nary a mention of what “sport” this might be.
Let me guess:
Kickball?

Very exciting comeback.....Award Ceremony at 3pm Pacific; 6pm East Coast......on NBC Sports ch. 90 on FIOS..
They never gave up and kept fine tuning & finding ways to ‘lighten the Oracle’......HOOOOORAY!

Spithill steered Oracle's space-age, 72-foot catamaran to its eighth straight victory, speeding past Dean Barker and Emirates Team New Zealand in the winner-take-all Race 19 on San Francisco Bay to keep the oldest trophy in international sports in the United States. An analysis of the above would lead the casual observer to conclude that this was a boat race. Key words: catamaran, San Francisco Bay.

Abbreviated as A Cup. :^)
It was a fantastic series.
I was bitchin’ about these boats compared to monohulls but seeing a 72 ft. catamaran doing 46 mph downwind.. just WOW!!!
Coming back from 8- 1 , amazing.
These races are on Youtube if you’re interested.

In 1964 I was learning to steer{?) a friend’s boat in Edgartown Harbor and almost ran into an America’s Cup vessel that was moored there. They were visiting.
I quit my boating life that day.

It’s the America’s Cup, old chap.
Me thinks you haven’t been down to the yacht club lately.
