Torn between taking the Bulls or the Cardinals. Both seem like solid picks.

Yeah, The Bulls final 2 games are tough so they almost have to win tonight.

Well, that, and I read TSN (the Canadian ESPN), who covers the Raptors exclusively when it comes to the NBA. Even for not caring about basketball, I know the Raps are ridiculously injured and not that good to begin with. :D

The Bulls and Cardinals being on the road though scares me.

The Bulls are playing in Air Canada Centre, one of the least frightening buildings to play in when it comes to professional sports. I'm a Leafs fan, I should know these things. :dodgy:

I just read through the comments on ESPN for each game and they claim the Bulls-Raptors game is tricky and they're going with the Cardinals and the 17 inning hitless streak by their pitcher Carpenter.

Yeah, it did. I'm going with the Cards. Trust Carpenter and Pujols over Noah.

I took the Cardinals. So much riding on the Bulls game either team could win it.

Now 4-2 Brewers in middle of 4th with Brewers coming up to bat.

Two runs were scored on the Cardinals in 3rd inning due to errors by Freese.

Hope the Cards turn that around, otherwise I'm back to square one.

Looks like my pick of OKC having a larger margin of victory than Phoenix is off to a good start
