AL and NL Championship Series Contest


So the Divisional Series went exactly as I figured they would....if you consider me figuring I'd be wrong on my predictions for all four series as going exactly as I thought it would. I didn't even get one winner.


Then...only one person picked all four winners: LDS winner


Great job ADK Mary. Only off by two games.


The best of seven ALCS starts tonight with the Royals @ Orioles, at 8:00 Eastern and the NLCS starts tomorrow with the Giants @ the Cardinals.


For this one, give us the winner, the number of games and the total runs scored. Give us your guesses before the start of tonight's game.


I'll go Orioles in 6 scoring 40 runs totals and Giants in 6 scoring 34 runs total.


In reality, I have no idea what will happen, but if you do and want to make a wager, here are some odds from Bodog.ca:
