    Lassie strikes me as preferring colder places:
    1. Sweden
    2. Zaragoza (colder most of the time, and anyway colder right now)

    only two votes for Lassie, so first choice wins. Lassie's picks are:
    1. Las Palmas
    2. Spain

    And here are the results:

    Final
    The Doctor 1 - 3 MH (Bosnia-Herzegovina 1-Finland X2)

    Congrats to MH, who, with his 4th Cup win, takes sole possession of first place in the all time ranking of Upt Cup wins.

    Bronze medal matches
    Homer Simpson 1 - 2 Jesus Petry (Portugal 1-Serbia X2)
    Lassie 2 - 3 Werner Pichler (Las Palmas 1-Zaragoza X2)

    After a promising start to the Cup campaign, the BOTs fall back to their recent unimpressive form. Bronze medals for Jesus and Werner.

    7th place playoff
    Futbolmetrix 0 - 1 Jesper Lauridsen (Ibiza 1X-Almeria 2)

    Seventh place playoffs suck...

    9th place playoff
    milivella 0 * - 0 ixion martin (Leganes 1X-Oviedo 2)

    Then again, pipping milivella by one position...bwahahaha!

    11th place playoff
    Mark 0 - 1 Jackson (Ponferradina 2-Burgos 1X)

    Wooden spoon for Mark. Are you sure you wanted the playoffs?

    We take a one week break to take care of organizational issues, UPT will be back in two weeks.

    Homer Simpson 1 - 0 milivella

    Playoffs suck.
    Really the whole point was so that it'll look more impressive when we win the League next season. Think of all the media attention that a team that ends bottom of Division 3 and wins the Cup would get. Well isn't ending dead last in the Cup and then being League Champions just as impressive?
