Ha -the score was 7 - 87. We only lost by 80 points. To anyone who bet money on the game (spread), I hope you didn't fall into the third most collasal blunder: the first is never start a land was in Asia, the second is never bet against a Sicilian when death is on the line, and third is never bet against the Lethbridge Loons - they may lose, but they always beat the spread.
Comments that we actally only beat the spread 50% of the time will be met with the somple math that 5 always rounds to 1, so it's equivalent to 100%. Further comments about rounding rules will result in a detailed arguement about philosophy of the odd-even up-down never-really-used rounding rules. Anyone astute enough to point out that none of that really matters, will be ignored, unless of course they know how to do Laplace transforms, in which case - OK whatever you say wins, because I can't argue with anyone who can do Laplace transforms.

Being from BBB #12, I do appreciate the rankings/predictions. Thanks for the extra work. Of course, can't you reprogram the spreadsheet to rank the Loons a little higher? It'd make me feel better.
