  5. I'm decent enough to feel bad that I don't respond to Rothko. But, that doesn't mean I respond to Rothko. And I like Sisley.

  6. It's an upset! It's an upset! Sisley ambushes Rothko with nine votes against two! Rothko leaves the Tournament, and Sisley moves on against T. Rousseau later this week.
