I wonder how the next 6 rounds are supposed to top that. I was in San Francisco this week speaking on fantasy sports and was able to attend a Golden State Warriors game at the Oracle Arena. The energy was amazing, despite the fact that the Warriors dominated throughout and won by roughly 30 points.
