You know it's a good thing when you start this thread in early August.... And because it's Jackie .... Ain't no bad luck here.
Not if we're playing "barrel of monkeys" ... From Billie Jean to a dam in Holland .... TAG! You're it, bitch.
That That's the 1969 set I think. Somewhere I have the whole staff for that season except Drysdale & Sutton, which are the hardest to find of course. I've got boxes of cards I need to organize.
Yes, it's pretty cool that we have an opportunity to clinch the division so early, but in a way, this huge margin - coupled with the changes made to the playoff format this year - has made the division magic number somewhat irrelevant. My attention is shifting to the magic number to clinch the first round bye - currently 40 by my count.
Oh yeah. Absolutely. LA is done with Atlanta but has to go to NY at the end of the month for three. If they can hold serve & knock 25 off that number by the end of that weekend, nobody will catch them in September.
