BallHype Contest -- Down to Two

by Tom Ziller on Jun 9, 2008 2:10 PM PDT

It's a two-man battle for the 2008 StR Playoff Pick'em Championship: section214 vs. bill shakespeare. Two cunning wordsmiths, for sure.

214 has the Celtics, while shakespeare has the dubious distinction of being the only member of the StR group on BallHype who picked the Lakers to win it all before the playoffs started.

No offense, shakespeare

But winning by picking the Lakers is a hollow victory at best.

Friend: Hey Bill, where did you get the cool T-Shirt?

Bill Shakespeare: I won it by picking the Lakers to win the NBA championship.

Congratulations on making the top two

That’s quite the achievement all considering.

No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. It's simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get tangled, you tango on

My dogs picked them

by peeing on the bracket that I printed out. I was initially upset that they didn’t take a leak all over the Lakers.

LOL well at least we know who you hate less (or who your dogs hate less more accurately)

Great...

Great…if the Celtics win, I am officially going to be ”#2.” I guess that’s better than the Lakers winning anything. Ever.

Ouch!

Such offal jokes.

Go Celts!

except KG should choke badly, but not so badly that LA wins!

God bless you, Corliss. You always played as though you knew how expensive my tickets were. -section214

But will he share it with the dogs?

section214 is one of just 9 contestants who have picked every series correctly so far, and is therefore still in the running for the iPod touch.
