Third round was just Edwards finishing up.
lol How can you hate Brown so much? ??? Thing is, Edwards is a pretty heavy hitter in the LW division. He just hasn't quite gotten over the hump yet like many of them such as Danzig, but that's because Ferocity's been heavily focused on Koscheck. 
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
