OK, BEFORE I QUESTION ANYTHING...LET ME FIST SAY CONGRATS TO BOTH OF THESE GUYS. BUT, HOW DO YOU HAVE 2 CHAMPIONS? I UNDERSTAND THAT THEY TIED IN THE POINTS STANDING BUT CAN YOU REALLY HAVE 2 CHAMPIONS? YOU ARE CONSIDERED A "CHAMPION" FOR A REASON. THAT MEANS YOU WERE BETTER THAN ALL THE OTHERS YOU COMPETED AGAINST. MY INTENT BY ASKING THIS IS TO NOT TAKE ANYTHING AWAY FROM EITHER ONE OF THESE GUYS. I AM JUST CONFUSED BY DECLARING BOTH OF THEM CHAMPION. IN MY OPINION...AGAIN, MY OPINION...THERE SHOULD BE 1 CHAMPION. THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN SOME TYPE OF TIE BREAKER.
