Final Predictions are in!!! This year we have a total of 45 predictions with the overwhelming majority predicting us to be a 4th seed in the west. @BlazerWookee, do you want to toss your seed prediction out there? Ill give you a one game advantage, lol. No one predicted a below .500 average or worse and the majority of predictions have us in the 51-54 win range (not enough time at the moment to do the numbers for the actual average. Ill get to that later and toss some numbers down on this. With that said... EVERYONE is still on track after last nights 1st game win!!!!!! I cant wait to toss some green into the colors!!!! Black = undecided....still in the running to be correct Red = Blazers have blown by your prediction and you have lost. Green = the lucky winner/currently on point KingAlbertoJrSpeed..............64-18......1st seed Nhawz..................................61-21.......2nd seed RipCityDSCPL........................61-21......3rd seed Dougnsalem..........................60-22.....2nd seed rotary111...............................58-24......1st seed Fonzthecpt1...........................58-24.....2nd seed RR7.......................................57-25......2nd seed chevyrunssometimes.............56-26......2nd seed Chris Craig............................56-26......3rd seed theprunetang........................56-26.......3rd seed BlazerWookee.......................56-26.........N/A BlazerAce..............................55-27.......3rd seed RickyJoe................................55-27.......3rd seed riverman...............................54-28......3rd seed e_blazer................................54-28.......3rd seed stampedehero.......................54-28.......3rd seed Fun in the Sun.......................54-28......4th seed Nate......................................54-28......4th seed BBert....................................54-28......4th seed BoBoBREWSKI.....................54-28......4th seed BonesJones...........................53-29......3rd seed julius.....................................53-29......4th seed PtldPlatypus..........................53-29......4th seed Shaboid.................................52-30......4th seed MARIS61...............................52-30......5th seed BigGameDamian....................51-31.......4th seed yuyuza1.................................51-31.......4th seed Trackjack..............................51-31.......4th seed blue9.....................................51-31.......4th seed KeepOnRollin........................50-32......4th seed BlazerCaravan.......................50-32......4th seed andalusian.............................50-32.....4th seed Blazinaway............................50-32......4th seed Orion Bailey..........................49-33......3rd seed OSUBlazerfan.......................49-33......5th seed SlyPokerDog..........................49-33......5th seed Eastoff..................................48-34.....4th seed honkicracker.........................48-34.....4th seed Pinwheel1..............................48-34.....5th seed Darkwebs..............................48-34.....5th seed Rhal......................................47-35......5th seed trailblazer18.........................47-35......5th seed WillG....................................47-35......5th seed HCP......................................46-36......6th seed Dougall71..............................44-38......7th seed Still looking for any suggestions on potential prizes, etc, but we can deal with that in the second half of the season. Maybe no one wins cause the Blazers finish with 65 wins and bring home a ring!!!!!! I would like to give away a prize for this, however I'm not sure how to do it. I would like to give away a pair of tickets to the final game, but how do we know who is the winner BEFORE the game? plus with that short of notice will the winner be able to attend? Are they even in this state? I just thought it would be awesome for the person who is right to be able to attend the final game for so closely predicting how this years team will do. Anyone have any thoughts on how best to do this?
Not much to track for now. This time last year we were 4-2. This year we are 3-3. Last year we went on a tailspin at this point for the next 25 games or so. This year, we should play a much more even keeled type game, with less drastic swings ans we should learn how to close games out quicker than we did last year. My question is this. IF and probably when we make a trade, if it is a significant trade involving two or more of our rotational players, should we allow everyone to provide a modified prediction for the remainder of the games?
BUMP!!! A couple things of note. We can only lose 13 more games for King to be correct. We do not look like that will happen A trade might fix everything and put King back into the throne. Black = undecided....still in the running to be correct Red = Blazers have blown by your prediction and you have lost.

However, It is still a mathematical possibility, so we must reserve judgment until it is indeed a fact.
No pleasure taken. Just the amount of shit I got last season for agreeing with the "experts" and under selling our boys....... I thinks it's worse to be blinded by your fandom and drastically over sell on them. Just wanting those with unrealistic expectations that are now freaking out to not forget that.
