2010 NSBB Predictions Contest - Rules & Entries

[CubbieBum]

Welcome to the 2010 Predictions Contest!

 

Laura and Derwood both said I was good to get this going. Contest has the same rules as in the past. They are pretty self explanatory but if you really need them they are in the 2008 thread.

 

MLB.com will be used for all statistics.

Entries due by NOON (CST) on April 9, 2009. This gives everyone the first series in Atlanta to judge what to predict.

 

PLEASE ONLY POST ENTRIES IN THIS THREAD. THERE IS A SEPARATE THREAD FOR ALL DISCUSSION

 

Good Luck and may you finish below me!
