    I've noticed people have stopped posting on the thread the past week or so lol. Either you're nervous as crap, given up hope, never cared to begin with, OR it's football season and you stopped paying attention to baseball.

    Either way, the season is coming to a close, and the AL East is going at it again this year; Baltimore had the division lead, but lost it last night. The AL Central hasn't changed in 5 months and if the LA Angels do not make the playoffs after signing Pujols, they will be the biggest disappointment in the AL.

    The NL Wild Card is also going at it. The Phillies started to make a come back, but it looks like they are going to come up short (I pray not). Yay the Barves will be in the playoffs for the 25th time and still not win anything. (Also, if the Phils do not make the playoffs, they will be the biggest disappointment in the NL ftr.)

    And not that the Cubs could 'catch' Houston, but the Cubs are now under .400

    And just a reminder, everyone will ship AFTER the World Series (except for rtaps and whoever wins the Championship ahhah). Everyone has a 3 week limit to ship after the last game of the World Series. I have a spreadsheet made up so if you could send me your tracking number, or at least that you've shipped, I can fill in the blank.

    Ein Prosit der Gemütlichkeit
    Prost and Cheers!!!

    Been sitting comfortable at #6 in the power rankings for a month or so with little fluctuation. I'm confident that the Giants can sit solidly through the playoffs.

    Also, are the bottom 15 teams separated from the top 15, regarding shipping? If so, those who know they are knocked out can get prepped to ship to the rtaps, and the rest can narrow it down as the playoffs are progressing.

    we/errrrr they can ship 'early' if they want to. as long as everyone ships by three weeks after the WS. the way I had it before, everyone shipping after the last game of the reg season would have had the eventual winner of the WS shipping also. So I changed the ship date for everyone to after the WS. (the same goes for the NFL BIF.)

    so yeah absolutely if someone who didn't make the playoffs or gets bumped out in the playoffs, wants to ship right away, by all means go for it.
