Everyone's predictions from last week have finally been tallied, analyzed and formatted accordingly. They can be found in their entirety following the jump.
Once again we didn't have anyone get all three of their predictions correct but just as Meatloaf once sang, two outta three ain't bad. So today's ballot has seven nominee's, including stujo4 and pipr for the second time, who all came oh so close.
Look over the results then go ahead and cast your vote for the best predictor. The poll will be open for 48 hours, closing Thursday afternoon at 12pm.
