Wow dude ur really good at this. But how can u say Rockets in 7? Before the series started, I had predicted the Jazz to SWEEP the Rockets. Lol and Lakers in 6 GAMES?! How can Denver win 2 games in that series? But dude the analysis is awesome like seriously and the stats u gave in the next column for the NL Central race were pretty good, they flowed right along with the story. I like how you incorporated all the key things for the Brewers to win the division including the power hitters, the lead-off hitters, and I liked how u said that even though some of the players are young, they still have some veteran pitchers and the leadership they need to win the division. My pick? The pick I had was the Cubs to win the division but I don't know man i think it'll be a close one right to the end like last year's NL East battle with the Phillies and Mets.
