In case you missed it, Jim and Anthony are going to keep track of our predictions for how ever long we do The Final Score. Then, in 20 or 30 years or whenever we move on to other assignments, we'll tally up the results and the loser will have to buy the winner a steak dinner or a tank of gas. Whichever is cheaper.
We'll update whenever some sporting event ends that we made predictions on. For example, Orlando ousted Toronto in the NBA playoffs last night in five games.
Anthony's prediction: Orlando in 6
Jim's prediction: Orlando in 4
We're using a 5-3-1 scoring system. Five points if you get it exactly right, three if you get the team right but miss the series length by one game either way, one if you get the team right but miss the series length by more than one game.
So that's three points for each of us!
The current standings:
Rieber 6
Baumbach 3
