from 15 games left:

win 8 (more than half) and we get 10.5 (I seem to recall that 11 or more got a final eight birth).

keep going as we are, that's 8 wins, and no mans land in the picks.

I'm going out on a limb here, we can't fall much below yesterday, I'm calling it the nadir - our low point. From here its all up, we will win more than we lose, with some big suprises, and we will play finals.

God it's a good feeling being an optimist - I can feel the warmth of that September sun, the smell of cut grass...........

Can you cut and measure some of that grass for me too?

Could use a good hit of "optimism" after yesterday.
