yes I must say I was disappointed in losing last night, I really thought we had a chance after taking two of three from the As. Oh well there is always next month.

The final two:
abregmanfan 14-12 124 RS, 115 RA InLuhnowWeTrust 14-12 128 RS, 119 RA
Actual: 14-12, 128 RS 93 RA
abregmanfan: off 4 on RS, off 22 on difference of 26 InLuhnowWeTrust: off 0 on RS, off 26 on RA, difference of 26
Hmmm...this hasn't happened before. A tie. I'm thinking a one-game sudden-death prediction. Tomorrow's game (9/1). Closest wins. Thoughts?

Get your votes in for tie-breaking procedures, if any. Otherwise, co-champions (kissing the sister).

Make them wrestle for it (or do your tiebreaker thing)

Numbers verified. I think it should go to InLuhnowWeTrust due to the fact that he nailed the RS prediction. We predict three groups: W/L, Runs Scored, Runs Against. He got 2/3 of the groups correct, and if I learned anything from Meatloaf, Two Out of Three Ain't Bad.

So, abregmanfan and InLuhnowWeTrust: Predict the score of today's game before first pitch. Closest wins, winner take all.

August Record 14-11, 128 RS 93 RA
abregmanfan 14-12 124 RS, 115 RA Endangered! -4 RS +22 RA 26 off
InLuhnowWeTrust 14-12 128 RS, 119 RA Endangered! 0 RS +26 RA 26 off
RS differential will not change at this point; RA differential will not change before 22 RA runs are scored. Highly unlikely in a loss.
talshill 15-11 130 RS, 108 RA Endangered!+2 RS +15 RA 17 difference
astrosdoug 15-11 111 RS, 91 RA Endangered! -13 RS -2 RA 15 difference
astrosdoug can only tie with a 1-0 Astros win. After that talshill takes the differential lead.

Doing a one game prediction like this only works if both contenders make a prediction. I still say it should be Luhnow because he got 2/3 of the predictions 100% accurate.

well he is the only one who submitted a prediction for tonight's game and damn near nailed that so I am in agreement with the batman. Luhnow get's the mercedes and the field pass for the next month this month.

Luhnow get's the mercedes and the field pass for the next month this month. That's why I think making a one game prediction off doesn't work since both of them didn't make a prediction. Abregmanfan may not have even known he was supposed to make one.

Abregmanfan may not have even known he was supposed to make one. If the goal is to force it to a single winner then the playoff system works just fine. If the Astros had of lost 9-3 with TrustinLuhnow predicting a 7-4 win then my sense would be that Bregmanfan would of won.

Since Abregmanfan didn't make a prediction (even though he didn't know to do so) and InLuhnowWeTrust did (and nearly nailed it), the August championship goes to InLuhnowWeTrust. Congratulations! I figure it's the same principle as drag racing; if one scratches, the other wins by simply driving down the track (at least, they used to do it that way).
