Not even yuko chan graduation served the purpose of getting votes, LOL. all goes to wasteeeeee

Unfair advantage to the white team!!! And the Kouhaku went back to the ball system this year! Maybe should we have a "ball handicap" system that adds a ball for every consecutive loss that team is having to give that other team an opportunity to win???

(Although, then again, I'm a fan of some Johnny's musicians, such as ARASHI...)
