    John, do you think your Phillies can live up to expectations this season and claim the WS?

    John,
    What is your take on the BCS/ AP Top 25/ and the Coaches Poll? Which do you think is the furthest off the mark, and how would you improve it.

    I think this is a year similar to 1978 and then their first WS win in 1980. The expectations are not nearly as great this season as they were last season. of course, the Philadelphia region is expecting another WS run and possible.. but last year, it was taken as a near lock that the Phillies would wint he WS. Now, with a year under their belt, it seems appropriate to think that this is the year and that the media and fan base in philadelphia will just let the team play. Chemistry is a big part of this team and it is only getting better with the acquisitions they made.

    In your opinion what are the major reasons why people end up being unsuccessful at sports betting?? Bankroll management, poor analysis, lines just being too sharp or something totally differnt?
