If you'd like to get a head start on picks, the fancy new pop up comments are where to put it. We'll have a big preview for the finals up before the week is over.

  2. Cool. I like the pop-up thing.

    I think one of the teams will take it in 6, but I don't know which.

    I guess I'll take the Pens in 6. I changed that back and forth a few times. It's a toss-up for me.

  3. ...maybe I should just go with whatever Chris picks to be safe. ;-)

    Pens in 6 it is though.

  4. pens in six, hopefully the kids show up...or all of detroit's goalies blow a tire...

    honestly though, I think Sid is the single driving force here..kid will not lose...and his game responds fiercely to competition (be it against fans, critics, his match-up or goalies). I don't think there is a rival to that intensity in Detroit. Ah, I sound like such a woman...aside from gushing about Sidney, I could talk about the Pens all day. The coaching staff is air-tight, Shero is on, Maffy is solid, Conks won them like, 30 games, solid d, two franchise players and Sidney's never-say-die attitude...the team dynamic is absolutely perfect on paper.

    Not to take anything away from Detroit...they're solid as well...but I just don't know. I don't think its their year.

    ...plus my roommate is a Detroit fan, and she was nervous over Nashville...

    anyway, I'm looking forward to a good, competitive series...if nothing else, Sidney and the kids are good for ratings...and we need that.

  5. Horrible misrepresentation of my picks there. I clearly stated they were strategy picks to try and gain on people. Psch. Whatever, Ryan.

    Pens in 6.

    Working like a charm...

  7. Also,

    2 straight rounds with zero points, and I'm still just two points behind Erika. I'm just sayin'.

  8. EXCUSE you.

    but I'm doing best out of the women...which is all I ask for out of life. You just happened to be a bonus...

    and for the record...unless you change your pick, we're getting the same score difference in the end...what was that again?

    oh yeah.

    Erika: some points.
    Jon: "two points behind Erika"

    I'm just sayin.

  9. I might be higher up if I had played more than one round...not that I would've done well in the first one anyway, as I proved in a different pool. The 2nd round I picked better, just not here.

    Detroit in 6.
