OP updated for Game 8 results.

Our Game 8 loss has decreased the expected win total by -0.742. The total expected win value is now 5.93, the first time all season it has dipped below 6.0.

And now for your voting leaders. This devastating loss had killed everyone's perfect season, although it has added @JelloJacket to the leaders group as he is the lone voter predicting a loss other than @whenyousaybud who predicted every game to be a loss.

In the next two games, a couple of other voters have a chance to join the leaders, and @gtfan1147 can take the season championship if we somehow manage to lose our last two games.

Each of these magnificent bastards ended the season with a 9-2 record. Which isn’t that great an accomplishment in a 5-6 season I guess.

@JelloJacket was slightly more pessimistic in his predictions, calling for 5.4 wins, which gives him the closest to the total number of wins as well.

Thanks to all of you that voted each week, and we’ll see you next August for the 2018 installment!
