My team was having an excellent July until I played you, Ozzy. Four-game sweep. Still, the Princes are playing as well as I could hope. My bats are all hitting and I'm third in runs scored behind the Brooklyn Black Sox and Bob's Burgers! Well done, Ozzy and Pappy! This is somewhat strange: when I excelled in the lower levels, it was because of my good defense and pitching.

Pappy, I looked at Bob's Burgers a bit more and noticed that we have similar teams in many ways. Lots of players with high contact and gap ratings, who also play good defense. You are the only team to have hit more doubles than me. I've been eyeing that 86 Charlie Gehringer card for a while now. Not keen on his defense, but I love his offensive profile.

Ozzy, thanks for the kind words! I put the Bel Air Princes logo together myself a few years back. Didn't really have a use for it until Perfect Team. (Some other samples of my work here.) You might note that my top card is the 87 Will Smith. Don't want to upstage the star. (Though I'm thinking of removing this limitation, as there just isn't quite enough good starting pitching below 87.)

As good as the Black Sox are offensively, it's the defense that impresses me. I also like your use of the 94 Norm Cash. That's one sweet card.

5rings, better luck next time with the card packs. I'd love to see you back in Perfect League next season, my friend!
