The two programs may decide the championship, however, I have every reason
to think that Ed and Jeroen would battle it out to the end regardless.

Everyone here will be watching and anything less would be quickly
pointed out.  I do not expect either Ed or Jeroen to take a dive just
so the other one can win the championship, just the oposite, I would
expect a long draw or a long game to prove the winner deserved it.
