It may be apparent to you now that I put more work into the MLB pool than I do any other pool. I'm not sure why this is. Perhaps it's because the MLB season is so long, and at one point is the only pool going on. Maybe it's because baseball is my favorite sport. Regardless of the reason, I've made an update to the MLB page.
This update is quite obvious: there is now a Matchups tab on the workbook that highlights the day's matchups, winners, and losers. For the casual pool member/viewer, this update is probably worthless. To those that would like to know who they are defeating/losing to, it is wonderful. I don't anticipate any problems with the update, but if there are, let me know. And if you think I missed some vital bit of information, give me a holler, too.

Updates to Betting Page
I made a few updates to the Betting Page, which include:
- Perfect and Winless Days - if you frequent the MLB pool, these statistics should not be new. They simply count the number of days that either both (perfect) or neither (winless) bets win.
- High Streak - due to lack of spacing on the front page of the betting sheet, I settled on this term to describe the best/highest/longest streak of perfect and winless days. In the future, I imagine these stats will be useful to see if there were any points during the season where Matt and I were on incredible highs or lows. Not the most important stats, but perhaps interesting at least.
I think that's it for now. I welcome any suggestions to the Betting page, or any other page for that matter, so please toss anything my way.

It's Been A While...
A few things have happened since I last posted, and I've forgotten to update you all. Let's dive right in...
- Baseball season has begun, and while currently the spreadsheet looks a little iffy, it will soon fix itself once a few more games are played.
- I have added another item to the Social menu on the home page, which is called "Betting". This will keep track of Matt as he bets against the Pirates and the Royals in each game this season. I'm quite anxious to see how this plays out, and I'm hoping the spreadsheet I've created will operate smoothly.
- NBA and NHL pools are going down to the wire (NHL much more so than NBA). Megan and Tom have been pestering Nicole for first in the NHL pool for the last few weeks, so next few weeks should be intense. And that's all you can really ask for in these pools. You know, other than winning.
- March Madness came and is nearly gone. The champion will either be Tom or Megan, depending on the outcome of the UConn/Kentucky game. The pool archive has been updated to reflect the final standings (other than the first two places).
I think that's all for now!
