You can make a bracket here: http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/fantasy/bracket-challenge/ Screen capture your bracket and upload the image to this thread.

The rules are simple:
1 - You must upload an image of your bracket and post it in this thread before the first playoff game tomorrow (Tuesday Oct 4th) at 8PM.
2 - Whoever correctly picks the most brackets out of nine wins.
3 - The tie breakers are: whoever picks the World Series champion correctly, the number of World Series games correctly, and whoever entered first, in that order.

Benw8887, Bedouin2W, and 40BOY have volunteered prizes for the winner. Thanks guys!

I predict the Orioles to win over the Cubs in 6 games.

I know one thing for certain, the Rangers will blow it again.

I agree on heartbreak for Chiraq.

ETA: I know I'm wrong and SF will beat the Mets, but fuck SF.

Nah, man, Romo doesn't play for the Rangers. It'll be OK.

Hey baseball fans, I'll get my enter in later today or tonight.

If you win, there has to be a prize! So........

I'll throw in a brand new P-mag, and a package of 5.56 snap caps for the winner!

Thank you for setting this up M4A1Carbine! ARFCOM has your back!

LA in 6

I'll contribute a PMAG and something else baseball related (will have to find something, maybe a foul ball) to the winner. If the winner lives in a jurisdiction that hates its citizens, I'll just donate the baseball-related item.

ETA- Looks like the link to my bracket is FUBAR. To the best of my ability, I think this is what my bracket looked like. If someone call still see my old image in their cache and my new img isn't correct, let me know.

I think an O's vs Dodgers prediction puts you on track to be in last place again this year.

I make this prediction against all my heart. I hope I am wrong and the O's win it all, but I have to be realistic.

Jays in 6.

I concur but it will be 6 games.

I could not get mlb.com to open.
So I did it this way.
I hope it is ok, and can be understood.

I might be picking Cleveland to win in_7.

But I still think the winner will come out of the National League.

No skill involved, just a little wishful thinking.

So far, so good.

Cubbies in six games, but I'm rooting for the Dodgers!

Even-numbered year? Check.

Giants in as a wildcard? Check.

Giants win the World Series in 5 games.

I'm pulling for them hard.

It's probably not going to happen, but it would definitely make my year if they somehow pulled it off.

Orioles/ Cubs series with Os winning? I hope you are right OP, that would be awesome.

Blatant homerism engaged!

You left OH behind. You have to pull for the Rangers. They WILL kick you out of Texas.

Grew up a Tigers fan. Been in KC over 15 years, so I like the Royals now almost just as much as the Tigers. There have been many times over the years when I absolutely HATED the Indians.

Still hope to see Cleveland bring it home this year.
