    I’m no math major (like some nerds in here), but if my numbers are right we should be slightly north of 30.

    Question for the masses, though not BIF related (or is it? :thinking_face:).

    Recently I've been sending a larger percentage of bottles around than in the past and I don't have much experience with bottle shippers, just flat rate boxes. Is there any particular six bottle shipper you've gotten offline that you'd recommend or is it just kinda buy whatever?

    I know most are Styrofoam but I thought the spirited shipper might work as well.

    Thanks!

    So very generous of you to offer to pick up the Cable Car @Snrubnivek !! That was a long time want of mine, and I splurged and bought one when I was at Toronado in SD. Someone should definitely take them up on that offer, that's a hard one to tick for most, and most especially a satisfying one for anyone that is attempting to tick the BA top 250!

    I don't go after the top 250 nearly as hard as I used to some years ago, but I did get to enjoy another whale to me today, thanks to the deep cellar section of the Porter beer bar. [​IMG][​IMG]

    I don't know much about the baseball, but I only saw 5-6 people answer so I figured I'd participate.

    1 96-66
    2 Yes
    3 Olson

    1. Considering the remaining schedule is pretty light, I will say a finishing record of 98-64

    2. They will make the playoffs and hopefully prevent those pesky Indians from making it(Twins Fan :stuck_out_tongue:)

    Great offer. I am happy I didn't read your post after having a couple beers because I would have been coaxed, but I definitely don't need to be buying more $$ beer right now!
    Have fun in SF!

    Love to see some die-hard baseball fans in here, and love to see small payroll teams doing well, like the A's. Looks like my Mets won't make it so I'll be pulling for the A's throughout the playoffs.

    I think they'll finish 97-65
    Yes, they'll make the playoffs
    And while Olson is a good bet, I have a feeling Canha is going will hit more HRs, just to mix things up.

    This is super, super tempting - this might be a fun one to bring to our DLD pre-share. Has anyone jumped on this yet, Kevin?

    Not yet. Not surprised though. $80 retail for 1 bottle is kinda crazy.

    I had the chance to to Wisconsin yesterday, and the results were a lot better than Iowa. My recipients will receive some Wisconsin love in their packages.

    Small random strike on its way out. I'd assume a Wednesday arrival, Thursday at the latest.

    Alright, so here's the entries in my LIF. Remember the 3 ?'s:
    1-What will the A’s final record be? If there isn't a tie, the correct guess of this question will win the LIF.
    2-Will they make the playoffs (Wild Card game included).
    3-Which A’s player will hit the most home runs between tomorrow’s game and the end of the season? (starting w/Friday's game)

    **If you replied and I missed your entry, just let me know.

    I just realized that @bstoos is bad at math (or he may think there'll be 4 games rained out the rest of the season wit 0 make up games). @bstoos let me know what your new guess for total wins-losses & I'll make the update. Cheers and good luck everyone.
