When it comes to making predictions, we like to procrastinate.
Not that it really matters. We’re just throwing darts in the dark.
But it’s what we do. When we’re right, no one cares. When we’re wrong, we’re idiots.
Then again, we’re idiots anyway.
Here are our predictions for the 2024 season, which you will find idiotic whenever your favorite team doesn’t show up in our projected playoff trees.
