US Chess League Predictions

Check the link above to see some prediction race that a few US Chess League writers have been working on. If you're not familiar with the US Chess League you can check it out at http://www.uschessleague.com .

Here are their predictions, and the scoring rules for the rest of the season, I am going to see if I can top them as we all know I'm a skilled fortune teller from my US Championship Coverage. (sarcasm)


Ron
Arun
Philadelphia vs Boston
Bos 2.5-1.5
Bos 2.5-1.5
Baltimore vs New York
NY 2.5-1.5
TIE 2-2
Dallas vs Tennessee
Ten 2.5-1.5
Ten 3-1
Miami vs San Francisco
Mia 2.5-1.5
Mia 2.5-1.5
Seattle vs Carolina
TIE 2-2
Car 2.5-1.5
Scoring works as follows:

Predictors get 2 points for each correct result (picking the correct winner or a tie)
Predictors get 1 bonus point for picking the correct score in 2.5-1.5 match or 2-2 tie
Predictors get 2 bonus points for picking the correct score in a 3-1 match (or 3.5-0.5/4-0)

So here are my predictions:
Bos over Phi 3-1
Dal tie Tenn 2-2
NY over Bal 2.5-0.5
SF over Mia 3-1
Sea over Car 2.5-1.5

Let's see if they can touch this!
