Back in January, I posted my predictions for the NLL this year. Let's see how close I came, shall we?

| East | My Prediction | Actual Standings |
| 1. | Rochester | Orlando |
| 2. | Orlando | Toronto |
| 3. | Buffalo | Buffalo |
| 4. | Toronto | Boston |
| 5. | Boston | Rochester |
| 6. | Philadelphia | Philadelphia |
| West | ||
| 1. | Calgary | Washington |
| 2. | Washington | Calgary |
| 3. | Edmonton | Edmonton |
| 4. | Colorado | Minnesota |
| 5. | Minnesota | Colorado |
In the East, I got two right, two off-by-one, and the rest (that would be another two) totally wrong. Picking Rochester to win the east when they didn't end up making the playoffs looks like a pretty bad call. I should have listened more closely to the part of my brain that wrote the line "Then again, the 2008 Knighthawks, with Grant and Evans, didn't make the playoffs." I thought Toronto would pick it up a bit and finish fourth – but I, like everyone else, didn't expect second place.
In the West, I was very close. Nailed Edmonton in the middle, and if you swap the other pairs, I would have gotten them all right.
Coming soon – playoff predictions.
