F, A, H, S, B
these are my least confident picks. I am guessing on 4 of the 5.
The relegation battle makes these games a flip of the coin.
it does, i now prefer guessing after you’ve posted the results. I do better when I know the answer!
You can become the Great Karnak now! The bottom teams are so inconsistent that match-ups come into play every week. I follow the Premier League way closer than the Bundesliga
i spent a lot of time in Portugal so I love to watch the various Spanish and Portuguese teams!
La Liga is so awesome. I also like watching Porto and Braga from Portugal. From the other post, I accept the bet about the brilliance of winter.
brilliance of winter?
oh you mean a reflection of snow!
the bet is on – let it so be shown!
i spent two months in Portugal for a project and watch La Liga most of the weekends I was there!
