I don't want to do any thinking.
I'd just like to see the boy form Kalamazoo win.

Can't argue with Martens based on the finishes he's had in the last three Classics he has fished.  He can catch em shallow, he can catch em deep.  He's a really versatile guy, which I think will be important this time around.  But, honestly, I'd love to see one of the Federation guys win it...

Russ Lane, KVD, Aaron Martens are 1, 2 or 3 w/ Iaconelli and Swindle 4th/5th.

I wouldn't forget about Aaron Martens. However, its usually dumb money to bet against KVD. Add in the fact that no one seems to consider him a contender... I bet he's don't a lot of preparation for this one.

Not a big fan of him, but I think it will be Steve Kennedy...

I don't know about Russ Lane...I think most of the local guys will be following him around to see where he fishes (since he OWNED that lake as an amateur...he has to have some secret unfished water, right?), and that traffic will have a big effect on how high (or low) he finishes...that being said, I'm still going to put him on my fantasy team  ;D

Looks like the "G-Man" is actually The "DQ-Man" :o

Per ESPN,
Trip Weldon just had a press conference here at the Classic announcing that Gerald Swindle's day 2 catch has been disqualified due to "unsafe boating" and some other infractions.

Looks like KVD is doing Real-Real good! Too bad he sold out to Toyota :o
