Maybe Raiders can update these lines for us on the final 8.

Good luck men.

FSB 12-1

 

[raiders72001]

Uncle B- Heavy action on Uncle B. because of that phenomenal showing in round 1.

Dogball- Would be favorite if not for Uncle B being on fire.

Baseswiz- Put up a nice first round and could be the sleeper.

Doc- Opened at 8-1 and can't be counted out although just a mediocre round 1.

KGB- Tough road going against Dogball and then Uncle B/FSB

Allstar- Opened at 20-1 and is now at 8-1.

Surf- May be some value here at 10-1 and in the easier bracket.

FSB- Caught a break in the first round match up and if he wakes up will be dangerous.

 

[Journeyman]

I want FSB for a nickel....would you take that action raider?

[raiders72001]

Jman- Did you notice that the four biggest dogs MFG, Raiders, General and Nets2 have been knocked out. Maybe I should jump to the other side of the counter.

 

[UncleButternutts]

I'll take you up on that JMan

 

[Journeyman]

Raiders , now if you only capped that White Sox season win total that well,lol.....

Uncle, at 12-1 Funk has value...

Funk is a sleeper.....plus he`s out of that Funk he was in ,,,

 

[Journeyman]

series odds , I`d take a nickel on FSB and Teddy... I don t see the long awaited Butternutts /Dogball match happening..

Good point...I don't think Dog makes it either..

 

[Journeyman]

Headgames continue!

ALPO

Its just starting to heat up!

Which final 8 candidate will win the Playersonly69 Award for whining in round 2

 

[SSI]

I think Teddy wins it all..

 

[UncleButternutts]

Alpo???? Why so quiet man???

I think chuckwagon is laying low,,, worried about making such a bold guarantee..

I think Docdekay will surprise a few, and make it to the finals...

See you in the finals Doc

 

[docdekay]

I am like a blind squirrel the past two weeks. I havent been able to find a nut if my life depended on it. Hopefully by monday I'll be able so see a little clearer.

As for who wins this thing...
I am hoping its someone from the East Coast (and I dont mean how we are seeded geographically).

Dog - NYC
Nutters - The Sunshine State
I dont know about the rest of you guys, but I take geographic origin very seriously. Here's to a winner who watches games in the Eastern Time Zone.

 

[FunkSoulBrother]

You'll see Doc in the finals???

Unfortunatly for you, I'm the Mighty Ducks of this compitition.

Unforunatly for me, that means I will choke in the finals and I have a Queer nickname.

[dogball]

GREAT LINES WORK RAIDERS< EXCEPT INSTALLING UNCLE B AS THE FAV IS A HUGE MISTAKE BASED ON ONE WEEKS WORK

YOU KNOW HOW IT GOES WITH THE MAKERS, NEVER BUY INTO CINDERELLA TO EARLY
