Hee. I found the thread. We actually didn't bet, but you were arguing the Mets would be worse than everyone but Houston.

I would have won easily.

Walk into the end zone like you've been there...even though you never have been. -- nm - David Nov 16, 10:47 7
- also, quite a bit had to fall in his favor to get there. - groiny Nov 16, 10:49 6
  - Nothing had to fall in my favor. As I pointed out Vegas had 5 teams pegged as worse. I only needed 2 to be right. - musubi Nov 16, 10:50 5
    - sure, keep telling yourself that. - groiny Nov 16, 10:51 4
      - Individual wins don't mattter. Team wins do. I had the Mets pegged as a 74 win team (which it turns out was rigth on). - musubi Nov 16, 10:56 3
        
        right, the fact that you got a Cy Young performance from a 38 year old journeyman had no impact on 74 wins. - groiny Nov 16, 10:57 2
        
        Dickey's CY was surprising, his excellent pitching wasn't. - musubi Nov 16, 11:01 1
        
        the problem with publicly stating things, is sometimes you are wrong. - groiny Nov 16, 11:02

- well, in my defense, I did say the Padres and Pirates would be better..... - groiny Nov 16, 10:41 2
  - Of course I didn't need them, what with the Cubs being....the Cubs. (nm) - musubi Nov 16, 10:45 1
    - I also did not expect them to be as bad as they were either. - groiny Nov 16, 10:46
- I love that there's a Houston exemption. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 16, 10:41 6
  - That was the beauty of it when groiny said it. I had the Mets pegged at 74 wins, and there was no way that was the worst record in the league. (nm) - musubi Nov 16, 10:43 5
    - Had Miami been as advertised, it would have been close. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 16, 10:44 4
      - Not really, Houston, the Cubs and the Rockies all still undershot the Mets by more than 5 games. (nm) - musubi Nov 16, 10:47 3
        
        what was the Mets record vs the Marlins this year? - groiny Nov 16, 10:48 2
        
        You expected the Marlins to sweep the Mets in all 18? - musubi Nov 16, 10:53 1
        
        yes son, you were right. I was wrong. But I would not say I was way off. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 16, 10:55
