Primus:
=========
Should be a little interesting, if only because we have the stylemaster potions the same time in the Mail-In format. It's possible we see some upsets, but it's unlikely that
it will affect things at the top end too much. Maybe we'll get a Lunger TV. TMM's big numbers might work against him in a Mail-In as other managers use their alternate strategies
against his set of warriors.

R-Up: Bonnie
Sleeper: John Ashcroft
Contenders:
=============
This could be one of the more competitive Contenders we've had in awhile, at least in terms of the variety of different managers. TMM's AB pipeline might be a little less
dominant with his recent wins. I counted 8 different managers who had Contenders TV at the last FtF (Up from 4 a year ago), so it could really be anyone's ball game here. Perhaps
we'll even get a surprise like the time Marma Duke won it.
TC: LHI
R-Up: TMM
Sleeper: Mannequin
Eligibles:
===========
I really hate to pick a non-AB here. But this WS has proved to be consistent. He'll be hard pressed to win if any top level AB's are busting out, but I think Weiss might be the most
reliable warriors in the field. As long as he doesn't get moved up in a split, it will only be a matter of time before he wins. The Mail-In format favors him--it's a good time for him.

ADM:
=====
Mail-In ADMs it just comes down to who is going for it and who isn't. So far, not a lot people are claiming to be going for it so pickings are slim...
TC: OAB
R-Up: The Dark One
Sleeper: Marma Duke
Freshmen:
==========
Assuming the split classification is accurate, perennial Challengers Runner-Up, Scomsss's Nightmare, goes for glory in the Freshmen tourney. Can he end Manager's TC drought or will Trust Buster bust his chances?
TC: Manager
R-Up: The Dark One
Sleeper: OAB
Challengers:
==============
Opal Ravioli is finally gone, but Gold is expecting to make his debut. It might be too early for him to win it, but he could be factor almost immediately. Otherwise it might
come down to the usual suspects.
TC: TMM
R-Up: TUM
Sleeper: Manager
Champs:
========
The obvious favorite, Pepp isn't expected to run in this tourney, which really makes it up for grabs.
TC: The Dark One
R-Up: Anarchist
Sleeper: Otto X
Adepts
=======
Not many tips here, going on gut...

Never got so much press before, Dwayne! Thanks for the vote of confidence. I'm not used to the big bullseye on my back, but we will see what happens!
