1.   The team has only a mathematical chance of making the play-offs.

2.   Boone, riding Shorty Lady Lena, has a mathematical chance to catching Allsup, but it is highly unlikly.

3.   But here it is, the final week of the regular season, and the Yankees still have a mathematical chance of bumping Baltimore.

4.   Cal still has a mathematical chance to earn a Rose Bowl berth, but must win today to keep that hope alive.

5.   Even so, the mathematical chance that a specific location will be struck by a tornado even one time in any one year is quite small.

7.   The Giants still had a mathematical chance for the coming playoffs, after going through four quarterbacks in the three-year regime of Jim Fassel.

8.   The Islanders still have a mathematical chance to advance to the post-season for the first time in three seasons.

9.   The team with the best mathematical chance, however, rarely comes up with the first pick.

10.   To have a mathematical chance of going to a bowl, the Jackets must win the rest of their games.
