It's actually not overly difficult to get 20+ for a month. Obviously some luck is needed...but some strategy is involved too.
The way I'm trying to go about it is to get 2-3 wins a day for about 3 days straight. That way I'm up to around a 9 game winning streak. Then I'm just going to pick one game a day that I feel to be a complete lock. If I'm uneasy about it, I'll skip that day. The hardest part is stringing together the first three days or so. I would have been on track...but yesterday set me back a little bit.

My win, lose, win, lose streak will continue as I picked the Angels over Boston and that didnt exactly turn out good.

Ridiculous that after the 2 pm soccer game, there will be 13 streaks in double digits that haven't had a loss yet. I don't know how this many people have sidestepped all the land mines so far this month.

I got the 2pm soccer match correct so I am up to my longest streak of the month, 1.
Going with the Mets tonight at 7
I agree Karen, it is nuts.

last month I had 5 in a row and felt like a million bucks 
Dont know what I would do if I got into double digits.
I had a tough time between Reds/Mets and Phillies/Cardinals
And I just saw your sig and busted up laughing!

damn you Kimbo Slice. Snapped my w8. I knew I shouldn't have picked any of the fights.

Felt the same way! I had a w7 going, and then lost on every single one of the fights. Then I lost the Cavs game today...so I'm sitting pretty on an L4.karen lotz wrote: damn you Kimbo Slice. Snapped my w8. I knew I shouldn't have picked any of the fights.
