Gratuitous League Plug

While we don't sim at quite the pace of some other leagues, the NBSL (National Baseball Simulation League) is on the verge of celebrating our third anniversary (May 2001) and the start our 13th season.

We still have a solid core of our original founding owners who I thank for their time, efforts and loyalty to the league.

No where else will you see my drunken hormonal rants posted with such pleasure. A great time is had by all in NBSL.

And drunken hormonal is very true! LOL Actually Karen is a very dedicated and enjoyable owner. She even tore apart one of the greatest NBSL dynasties into a cellar dwellar...

In fairness, the team was old and she is in the midst of a solid looking rebuild. It's amazing what the prospect of a case of beer can do for someone. Right Karen and Dave?

an impressive looking league to be sure... too bad you don't have any openings... or expos

Yeah, "les Expos" moved to Memphis after (gasp) being unable to generate fan interest or income after 6 seasons.

It's all about beer.

Canadians and their beer. Anyone remember the McKenzie Brothers, Bob and Doug,
from the Great White North?

Bob: You Are Our Guest, g'day and...
Doug: Coo roo coo coo, coo coo coo
Bob: Oh sorry...
Doug: Coo roo coo coo, coo coo coo coo
Bob: Sorry. So g'day. Welcome to You Are Our Guest.
Doug: It's a new show, eh? And like it was my idea.
Bob: Aw, take off! Okay, so I'm Bob McKenzie, this is my brother Doug.
Doug: How's it going, eh?
Bob: Okay, so what you do is, you take the album where it's got all this written down, eh? You follow it along and you are our Guest.
SFX: Chair.
Bob: And like, there's even a chair here for you.
Doug: But like, there's no one in it, eh? So like you're not really our guest, eh?
Bob: Geez hosehead, will you stop blowing everything?
Doug: Okay, eh?
Bob: Okay, so g'day! C'mon up here, sit down. Welcome.
SFX: Sitting in chair.
You: G'day, how's it going?
Bob: Pretty good. So this is your first time on the show, eh? You're not nervous, eh?
You: No Bob, I'm pretty comfortable.
Bob: Can I get you a beer, or back bacon?
You: No thanks Bob, I just ate. Say, you guys like my toque?
Bob: Yeah. It's a beauty.
You: Doug, don't you like my toque?
(Pause)
Bob: Hey, hoser...
Doug: What?
Bob: Our guest asked you a question.
Doug: There's nobody here but me and you, hosehead.
You: Excuse me, can I say something?
Doug: What?
Bob: Oh so now you're talking to our guest, eh hoser?
Doug: Okay, but only cuz he tricked me, eh?
You: Listen you hosers, the only reason I came on this show was to tell you guys that the idea of having me as your guest is stolen.
Bob: It was his idea.
Doug: Take off, it was not!
You: Look, I don't care which one of you hosers ripped it off but it's been done before. On other albums, on TV shows. And all you've proven by doing this is that you're a couple of hosers.
Bob: Yeah, well you're a hoser for going along with it this far.

Yes, you are a hoser for reading this far...
And I'm a hoser for posting this in the first place. Take of eh!

Congrats! Been a big fan of NBSL for along time, looks like one of the best leagues out there (I'm currently #2 on your waiting list) and you can tell the owners love the league because it takes forever to get in. (I've been trying since last summer I think) Good Luck, and I hope I'll be able to join someday.
