having posted, I can now say - that I could not decide #5 between the Chicago Cubs and the Cleveland Indians - so I flipped a coin. 10 years ago, in spite of my loyalties, I’d have said the Mets. I likewise had to flip a coin between Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens. 😉 ---

I’ll cogitate on it and, if I can come up with something quick and useful, probably post a thread on it. [/QUOTE] I actually was wondering if there would be a cool way to do a Feud website. Folks log in and join a feud to givet their answers into a database which is automatically tabulated and posted. The only problem of course is that many answers are technically the same but are not always typed in identically. But I could see a way for someone to “clean” the data, if you will before publishing the results. Just a pipe dream I suppose. ---
