My bad

Oops. 4-4 after 4 innings.

I could not have been further from the actual results with my prediction. This goes to show that no matter how many stats you have, you still: a) need to be able to read into them and b) need to be prepared for bad breaks, poor outings, etc... You gut feeling is not enough, and statistics can be misleading.

Point is, close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. All that matters in gambling on baseball is winners and losers, the journey is not important. Some people learn that the hard way.

It it makes anyone feel better, I put my money where my mouth (er, keyboard) is, and bet heavy on the under myself. I lost, and am not currently too happy of a camper.

They can't all be winners!
