Just a final reminder: 2.5 hours left to cast your vote if you haven’t already.

FYI, there are a couple of close contests here, with Bracket B being especially tight. Every vote matters!

\*\*Lendervedder \*\* dribbles down the left side. Almost loses it. Two seconds on the shot clock. \*\*Shoeless \*\* head-fakes. Fires! Shot no good. Rebound **Interrobang!?** Four seconds remain in the game. No time outs. All players are in the paint. **Interrobang!?** spins, pops a shot. Up and […HOOOOOOOOOOOOONK!..] in! Does it count? Will it count? Have they given the sign?

That does it for this round.

Some songs are moving on, while others are going home to only think about what they could’ve done differently (was my fade-out too long? were my harmonies not tight enough?).

Here are the final scores:

**Can’t Buy Me Love 33** , I Feel Fine 28

**Help! 32** , Norwegian Wood 29

Hey Jude 20, **A Day in the Life 41**

**Here Comes the Sun 35** , Let It Be 26

The next round is coming up shortly.
