BCB Championship Series Contest

by Al on Oct 9, 2007 8:27 AM CDT in News Comment 147 comments

The Cubs failed to advance, but that doesn't mean we can't follow and have a little fun with the NLCS, and the ALCS too.

So -- I challenge all of you to pick the winners of the league title series, and there will be cool prizes for the winners, one per league.

Let's keep this simple. Pick the winner, one for each league. Now, obviously, that will mean many people will get them right.

So, there will be two tiebreakers:

First tiebreaker: pick the number of games to win each series
Second tiebreaker: pick the total number of runs scored in each series

I'll close off the comments in this post just before the first game, which is Rockies/Diamondbacks on Thursday, October 11 at 7:30 pm CT. Have fun and good luck!
