Nearly everyone going with tightly-fought 4 or 5 game results here in R1, and yet we very well might be looking at four straight sweeps.  163 games later and the NL half, at least, was over in 3 games; yikes!  Bad news for the Elite, though, is how we were wrong about both results!

NL Round One Picks:

Phils - 7, Rocks - 6
Cubs - 9, Dbacks - 5

And the news just keeps gets worse... 10 of the 14 of us have already lost our NL World Series representative!

Round 1 Results

Predictor - Score (possible remaining)
NOTE:  0,1 possible remaining implies WS champ out.  2, 3 possible remaining imply WS champ is in.


Octo - 3 (3)
pack - 3 (3)
bcks - 3 (3)
Alec - 3 (1)
Wiff - 3 (1)
Jon - 2 (2)
Drag - 2 (2)
SZ - 2 (0)
Steve - 2 (0)
Lark - 1 (2)
Wheat - 1 (0)
QB - 1 (0)
Youse - 1 (0)


Assuming we'll go # of series predicted, no weights or anything in round 2 and 3.  Either way, I think highly doubt any 2 (2) could win this outright - and I'm too lazy to go through all 8 scenarios.  But there it is!


Please correct me if I'm wrong, this took me like 2 minutes tops.

Octo's own picks make it impossible for either 2(2) to pass him as he has Rockies and Indians picked.  I don't think it's even possible to have a tie for the leader, but I'm not concretely sure.

Jon says scoring goes 1-2-4.  I'll use that.
 

Shep, I can put you in with a * just for fun, b/c obv you wouldn't cheat with those preds ;) .  nah JK, thats a 2 (2) I think, and you are eliminated by bcks anyway.


Alec was late, I'll add a * to him.  Three games were basically decided, and in a 5 game series that is big info!

The World Series is...
Red Sox vs Rockies


Here is the leaderboard, based on 1-2-4 point scoring.  If your winner is alive, it is listed.


Points    Player - rd 1, rd 2 (winner)

7  pack - 3, 2 (Red Sox)
5  bcks - 3, 1 (Red Sox)
5  Octo - 3, 1
4  Drag - 2, 1 (Rockies)
4  Steve - 2, 1
3  Lark - 1, 1 (Red Sox)
3  Wiff - 3, 0
2  Jon - 2, 0
2  SZ - 2, 0
1  Wheat - 1, 0
1  QB - 1, 0
1  Youse - 1, 0
**Alec - 3, 0
**Shep 1, 1 (Red Sox)


** denotes late picks.


The scenarios are pretty dry and obvious at this point.  I'll update this list, which will be really easy, once the World Series is over!

I actually thought the Indians would beat the NYY but I picked NYY because I wanted to see Boston kick their ass again.  Cleveland should have been able to close out Boston but I thought, even down 3-1, that Boston would win the world series.  I made a lot of money on postseason baseball betting though.
