yea this years playoffs are looking little more exciting then they have the last couple o seasons. Maybe it just seems that way cuz i'm a contender tho. It could go almost any way in the big 8 with 3 strong teams in contention. Pepe is the one i leave out. i dunno why but i don't like his odds( hope he doesnt make me eat those words on saturday). in the great 8 i'm with you in that its clear if the clodhoppers want it, they got it. I can't wait.
