its good to do it the way you do wal
I don't think I have my finger on the pulse of pittsburgh or chicago sports though
as a big fan I think the extra square news publicity you read, hear, see can skew you.... and you can never get out of the way of your heart.....
whether you are a pessimist or an optimist.
I try to be un-biased in my assessing teams whether from chicago or Pittsburgh, but i'm sure I can't be impartial
my take on Pittsburgh Pirates is, that they have the luckies set of a starting 5 i've seen in a long time.... and they'll be on the DL or killed in august and sept
and the fielders have like 2 guys that have played more than 3 years.... including 4 rookies or so. they will fade and get tired. and suck
74-88 is my prediction for them
glad the pirates fan had a fun june and early july, but it ends soon
