This is the latter.
Both of these two were people that I thought had a good shot at winning this season.
There's very little space left to navigate, but coming into this week, I had them both pencilled in as people I expected to see for at least a couple more weeks.
But that's why you play the game - to see what is going to happen.
And certainly those remaining are awesome as well! (Which should go without saying - but I'm going to say it anyway) and this just gets more and more painful as we go.
Losing these two though? In that same week? Yeah, that's rough...
Thank you to both of you for coming out this mini-season. You're definitely a huge part in what helped make it special.
