No love for Derek Lowe in the individual predictions. - David Mar 30, 09:19 3

  - Aren't I fun? -- nm - David Mar 30, 10:02 1
    - I can think of a few other more appropriate adjectives, but yeah, for now, lets go with "fun". (nm) - musubi Mar 30, 10:11
Can't be any worse than the joey jinx. -- nm - kelly Mar 30, 09:17 6
- Don't make me buy a Adrian Gonzalez jersey. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 30, 09:51 5
  - Don't you dare you SOB, pick a Youk jersey instead. (nm) - musubi Mar 30, 09:52 4
    - Youk is on mine and I like both of them as players....how about I get a Pedroia one? - Will Hunting Mar 30, 09:54 3
      - Deal. Also get a Jon Lester jersey, just in case. (nm) - musubi Mar 30, 09:58 2
        
        I can't...Lester overcame cancer; I'll happily steal a Bucholz jersey though. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 30, 09:59 1
        
        Excellent thinking, you should get one for every laptop he stole in high school! (nm) - musubi Mar 30, 10:09
At least Amy K. Nelson and Jerry Crasnick are smart. - David Mar 30, 09:16 6

  - Tex and who? -- nm - David Mar 30, 09:19 4
    - CC -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 30, 09:20 3
      - Ah. I stand corrected then. -- nm - David Mar 30, 09:22 2
        
        Granted, after that, it's really not worked for years prior to that - Will Hunting Mar 30, 09:23 1
        
        At the time, probably. So, it works about once a decade. -- nm - David Mar 30, 09:25

- It makes me chuckle that it's pretty clear pitching wins titles yet only like 10% of them pick either the Phillies or the Giants who unquestionably - Will Hunting Mar 30, 09:19
- they'd rather be wrong by a team coming out of nowhere than be wrong by missing the obvious/expected choice. -- nm - znufrii Mar 30, 09:17 9

    - also the hegemonic desire to reinforce rather than challenge commonly held cultural ideas. - znufrii Mar 30, 09:21 7

        It's not like it would even be worth his time - znufrii Mar 30, 09:36
        
        wait did he quit? what? -- nm - amanda jones, transitarian Mar 30, 09:29 2

        oh ok. I would have to kick his ass. I hate when people I like quit. -- nm - amanda jones, transitarian Mar 30, 09:31

And sorry Troy Tulo....they got you as the odds-on NL MVP guy... - Will Hunting Mar 30, 09:16

- Yeah. Terrible editing there. -- nm - Don Homer Mar 30, 09:17
