Being the Admin for the site, I'm calling shenanigans on Boss-Hog. He's clearly fiddled with the numbers to make him a winner.
Indeed. And I'll be kind of pollyanna-ish: a testament to not rolling over and dying. This team shouldn't have won 70 games, but they blew that benchmark out of the water. Proud of this squad.
Now go pick Halladay off the bones of the Blue Jays and bring home some hardware in '10.

I had 79, so close.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
I believe the the ORG had an average of 79 wins for this year. So overall, we were pretty close.
(If you guys had just not allowed me to enter the ORG, my 84 win prediction would not have counted and I believe the average would have been on the nose with 78. So it's your fault for voting me in.)

My guess of 68 looked pretty good for much of August, but I'm glad it was really too low instead of too high.
