Barely above a AAA team.

We only have to go 6-1 through SF and Wrigley.

Not happening. I predicted 78-84 at the start of season and it is unlikely they will even finish that good.

I predicted that too. Have to go 3-4 the rest of the way. It could happen.

Well if they go to Chicago and sweep the small bears that would make that a certainty! :D

I have stuck with my preseason of 76-86, which appears not likely to come true. At least, I hope not.

What is the fascination with a .500 record ? 81-81 compared to 77- 85 is nearly the same type club. I know for 77-85 it's a losing season and teh 81-81 fans can say 'at least we didn't have a losing year ' . To me, the teams are about the same .. not too good .

Have you changed your theory? It always mattered to you before.

It shouldn’t, but this team used to have standards, so I guess people look for victories where they can find them.
