| Round One:
Frieght over Pub because Whinnery shuts them down
Tonka over Stockmens and I am calling blow out
Stillwater/Bandits (pick)
Edge w/too much clear across the board over Rocks
Round Two:
PARK VS EDGE.....terrible game one for Park. Young club versus old club. The best batting order in the state will not be benefited as much having not seen and probably not knowing much about whomever Edge starts.
Anyone of the three guys Park could start against Edge could very well dominate...THIS GAME COULD EASILY GO EITHER WAY....I can't go against Park but I am not saying they will win it either.
SHAMROCKS VS Stillw/Bandits....Shamrocks hands down win this game and will then face either Park or Edge which will be no easy task
Bottom Bracket Final will be Park or Edge vs. Shamrocks
WESLEY VS. TONKA......you want to see a great game this will probably be it and may end up being the best game of the tourney. Hard to pick a winner here as well. Wesley is hot and will easily match up on the mound vs. Tonka. Both teams play solid defense and Tonka has a bit of an edge offensively......My gutt says to go with Tonka but Wesley is legit as usual.
MOE'S VS AF.....I guess we will all see if Moe's is legit but if their #1 is not as good as AF's #2 then I don't think they have a chance. this could be one of those games where the Skyline is reminded once again of how they stack up to the other leagues. THEN AGAIN IT IS A PERFECT OPPORTUNITY FOR MOE'S TO PROVE ALL THE DOUBTERS WRONG BECAUSE THEY GET A BYE AND SEE SOMEONE'S #2
Upper Bracket Final: Tonka or Wesley against Frieght and I don't think either of those clubs will want to see Whinnery.......
IN CLOSING I AM NOT PREDICTING IT BUT WE COULD ALL VERY EASILY SEE AN AIR FRIEGHT EDGE WINNERS BRACKET FINAL......they both have favorable match ups.
Tonka, Edge and Wesley are the only clubs who in my opinion can make it back through to the final from the loosers bracket.
Park can't , Pub can't and niether can any of the other clubs.

| I love you OT, hope to see you at some games and in the parking lot after. I think you are selling your team a little short, best lineup we have seen all year and plenty of arms to match.

| Saladmixer......Im sure you will see me. Just remember sometimes there is a rhyme and reason behind every thing I do.
I agree with the comment per the line up but Wooten is no longer a part of the club but they were good already with out him. Hands down best batting order in the state...how could it not be with Fix batting 9?
Pitching...top three guys are probably better then anyone elses top three but the pen is thin this year.....some guys and pitchers are dinged.
Rest assured I still think there is a legit chance of a Tonka Park final.
My boys will probably have more motivation this year to win it then any other year due to wanting to repeat big time.....and not many seasons left for the core group (1-2 seasons at most)
Good luck to you guys in making your run

| OT-
I think you have a few games wrong, only because my team is still in it. Why don't I get back to you in a few days to show you where you went wrong. I love still being your huckleberry this late in the season. Good luck to all the tourney teams.

| "The 17"
I believe I stated it before but I only know one "17".....for those who are informed they would know who Im talking about.
With that being said I look forward to any thing you have to offer...I am the only huckelberry around here....:)
Yet I went out and gave my for fun predictions per game almost for the first couple rounds.
I am sure after round one I will have some adjustments as well as predictions to make.
We all welcome getting any opinions/comments from anyone.

| Moes...I give respect where it is due however the Skyline has terrible match ups this year and as stated before if on the outside looking in.
Moe's is the only chance for the Skyline to lay claim to being relatively legit.

| Regular season games don't normally mean that much to teams from the Riverview and Park National because their league schedules dictate their utmost attention.
All leagues are legit but the Skyline is the weaker league of the four

| Someone should do a strength of schedule ranking system as Im not smart enough to take that on.
Then the skyline clubs would have a better understanding of things.
However one could simply look at some teams, in particular those from the riverview and park national to see the types of schedules the better clubs play outside of their league games.
The skyline clubs especiallt those who want a bit more respect should get over on the other side of the river every once in a while.
Better yet start making some more noise in the tourney.......
