USCL 2008 Final Rating List

Another exciting season of United States Chess League action has ended. The Dallas Destiny repeats as champions of the league, beating the Boston Blitz in a rematch of last year's finals. And, like last year, the finals went to the exciting tiebreak matches, where Davorin Kuljasevic and Bayaraa Zorigt were the heros for Dallas, not only winning their regular match games, but also games in the tiebreak match. For his efforts, Kuljasevic ended the year atop the rating list.

Thanks, of course, to the sponsor of the US Chess League, Pokerstars.com. I tried Pokerstars a couple of days ago, and they have a really nice interface.
