Of course if you were to throw Francisco Liriano in the deal... you would find me very very compliant.
Do it, Tico... on friday.
I'm playing jp right now.
And playing me quite well, I might add.
So my guy. Josh Beckett (Red Sox), just threw 8 innings of scoreless ball. He allowed just 4 hits (there was a double in the 8th-but no harm). He gave up no walks and struck out 7. So, my luck being what it is, he gets pulled at the start of the 9th. And there goes my chance for the complete game and shutout. But I get some nice points in the pitching categories.
The amusing thing is that I offered Beckett to the Boston Puppies (who happen to be my matchup this week) in what I thought would have been a mutually beneficial trade which have also added yet another Red Sox player to Jespah's roster. I don't find a response yea or nea. The trade, to be truthful, would not have taken place until later in the week.
I thought I wrote back and said no thank you. Hmmm. Dunno if I'm gonna reconsider that.
It could be I missed your declining of the trade offer, Jespah. But Beckett and Batista combined for 17 scoreless innings yesterday. A fine performance by my picthing staff. Schilling today, however...
So we'll go with me still thinking about it (I'm going to school these days and a lot of other stuff is set aside while I ponder the mysteries of Business Analysis certification).
PS I had no idea we had/have playoffs!
I got my ass handed to me last week... nice work ex-cellar dwellers.
And I am still winless against the Pancakes. <sigh>
Yeah... the pancakes have been really cooking lately.

Two things:
1. The official team name, for the time being, is Former Yugoslav Republic of Past Cellar Dwellers, but it was too long for the Yahoo! system.
2. I only got even after the whipping I took from your brother a few weeks ago.
Thanks, jp.
My fantasy baseball teams this year have to do with movies.
Former Yugoslav Republic of Past Cellar Dwellers, is taken from "Underground".
The other ones are:
Pasolini Toads (which is also a homage to T. Rex) and
Victims of Doctor Caligari (which had to be abridged to Dr. Caligari Victims).
The Rednecks are making their move. A good win this past week over the Puppies puts me in 6th place. Setting my sights on catching Tico.
Talk about streaks: for July, The PanchoVillaRaiders (or whatever they are calling themselves today) and the Pancakes have 4 wins. JPinmilw (or whatever his new name is), who had a brilliant performance last week (losing 18-2) and the Fiery Tamales have four losses in July.
I am pondering your trade offer, joe, but you neglected to mention how many pounds of genuine Wisconsin bratwurst would be included.
Finally, we have started to gear up for the 3rd edition of the A2K NFL Pick Game. I will be doing the stats, but Panzade has agreed to take over the analysis/commentary. I sent out a bunch of pm's Sunday, but only got about halfway through my list. Please join us in pursuit of the coveted Golden Jockstrap trophy

Wowee!
Watch out 'cause I'm back in the game
Won't say anything 'cause excuses are lame
I'll just let you good peeps know
That your teams are all in death row
Be afraid, be very afraid.
Is there a trophy for A2K Baseball. I can't, er, use a golden jock strap.
Um, it is the golden jockstrap TROPHY. Not something you are supposed to wear. It sat on my mantle for a day or so, and then I was told to keep it in the garage, Now, Kickycan has it. It is, in my mind, a rather awesome piece of sculpture. So gold; so..umm, nevermind.
You're confused realjohnboy.
The golden jockstrap you like so much is the, truthfully yours, A2K Football trophy.
I OWN the A2K Baseball trophy... at least until October.
