Now that looks like a pretty decent list...I wouldnt mind it one bit if those were the actual winners. Although F. ACTOR in a Musical & Play could go to Jim & Ian and I wouldn't be surprised. Or Danny & Ian and I wouldnt be surprised either.

I SURE HOPE TYNE & BETH pull it off though, I think both ladies are FANTASTIC!

I would be ecstatic if all of those predictions came true

I actually agree with that list 100%. It would be INCREDIBLE if that happened.

I just hope THE COLOR PURPLE wins at least two or three awards.

I have my fingers crossed for Fields and LaChanze although I wouldn't really mind if LuPone beat LaChanze as they are both giving the performances of their lives right now.

Geez, the past few years have been jam-packed with talented women (Menzel, Chenoweth, Murphy, LuPone, Pinkins, LaChanze, Applegate, Scott, Dilly, Clark, O'Hara, Foster, Leavel, Gleason, Lawrence, Keenan-Bolger, Ramirez, Rivera............)

Well, not to undermine the men, we've also had Butz, Lithgow, Curry, Jackman etc etc etc....

I'm crossing my fingers for JLY to win [even though he really doesn't need the luck, he's won everything else!] and JB to win Best Musical. Maybe even for Pajama Game to take Best Revival...

I would love for this to really happen! However it would be kind of sad if Jersey Boys won nothing...although I honestly don't know what I'd give them.

I almost wish that Michael and JLY could tie for lead actor because they both deserve it.
