…[W]e mutually pledge each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.
235 years ago, those were the final words to the Declaration of Independence. Like any great journey those final words were just the beginning to the creation of a great Republic. Happy Fourth of July. Let’s not forget the courage of our Founding Fathers as they stood tall against the tyranny of King George III. Play ball!

The Power of Math rules Again!
Once again Professor Bruce Bukiet from the New Jersey Institute of Technology has proven that the power of math is a rock star. Bukiet is in the lead for our 2011 MLB predictions contest with a score of 7.5 out of 8. If the season were to end on July 1, the following 8 teams would make the playoffs.
American League
New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, Detroit Tigers & Texas Rangers
National League
Philadelphia Phillies, Atlanta Braves, St. Louis Cardinals (tied with Milwaukee Brewers) & San Francisco Giants
Bukiet would have received a perfect score had the Milwaukee Brewers failed to be tied for first place in the NL Central. Currently second in our contest is best selling author, Jonathan Eig with a score of 5.5. Eig so far has correctly predicted that the Yankees, Red Sox, Phillies, Braves, Brewers and Giants will make the playoffs.

The Professor takes the lead (as usual)
May 1st marks the first measurement of our Baseball PhD MLB Predictions Contest. The concept is simple. Pick the eight teams that will make the Major League Baseball playoffs and get a point for each team that you pick correct. The only score that counts is when the season concludes on Wednesday, September 29th.
9 Participants
This contest has nine participants. Each participant has predicted that the Red Sox and Phillies will make the 2011 playoffs. Consequently, everyone’s other six picks will determine the outcome of the contest. If the season were to end on April 30th, the 8 playoff teams would be:
American League National League
New York Yankees Philadelphia Phillies
Cleveland Indians St. Louis Cardinals
Texas Rangers Colorado Rockies
LA Angels/Tampa Bay Rays Florida Marlins
No Participant has picked the Indians, Rays or Marlins to make the playoffs
Last year’s defending champion, Professor Bruce Bukiet currently has four points (Yankees, Rangers, Phillies & Cardinals). In second with 3.5 points (Yankees, Angels, Phillies & Rockies) is Rodney Johnson form playballexperience.com.
4 Participants are tied in third with three points
Andre Lower (Yankees, Phillies & Rockies) from baseballbypositions.com is tied with each member of our PhD Committee with three points each. We’ll see in another 30 days if Professor Bukiet’s’ power of math wins the day again.

This week is Reds‘ week with our podcast featuring the National League Central Division Champs scheduled for release on Friday, April 8th. This will be our 50th podcast. Ed & Farley travelled down I-71 on Sunday, April 3rd to catch the Brewers taking on the Reds. The Reds won but is was an enjoyable day for other reasons. It was Bark in the Park Day at Great American Ballpark. Man’s best friend got to enjoy the confines of a beautiful ballpark and just a whiff away from the mighty Ohio River.
