Actually I didnt know that they existed until I overheard dad and my sister discussing the wedding invites. The scary thing is is that's not all of them, I couldn't write fast enough.

And to think, imagine how many more i'd have if I had got on this sooner

I live about 45 minutes S of the falls & I go up there a few times every year. Funny thing is, Herkimer is a historic name in NY. There's a town named Herkimer in central NY very close to where my wife grew up. I go there a lot. It's named after a General Herkimer.

I've got a big family?

I like the idea?

I hate game generated players?

Myself I figured that's the point of this thread. If I get a request from Matt to please stop adding folks then I will. But I figure, if we want ancestros, I've got them, why not add?

Besides, adds more flavour to the league. Fake players suck

Trippy. I wodner if thre's any relation since that area of the family tree is a bit fuzzy.

The fact that these new ones almost all have different last names is enough to make me happy for now. Besides, Creed knows he runs the risk of having much more lower tier ancestors than others, except for those who sneak in in seasons with few ancestors. But that may never happen again. We've been getting tons of ancestors the past 5 seasons.

Matt from TN · 01-21-2005, 12:32 AM

Branimir "Branko" Gljivica, Ernest Cohen, Bill Hahn, Antonio "Flamethrower" Grant, Ed "Bear" Shankster, Vasily "The Czar" Zimyanin, Gus "Frenchy" Guerard, Doug "The Count" Williams, Paul "Cheev" Kzywycz, Christopher "Mad Bohemian" Kobeck, Daniel "Fer'ner" McCarty, "Sammy Baby" Kreitenberg, Paul "Gooch" Pugliese and John Surette were added to the league for the 1951 season...

Yet another astounding 14 this season...

Next up are David "Lumberjack" Lawrence (congobeast), John "Jock" Kahle (metsgeek), Jack and Simon Caufield (ctorg), "Ollie Oops" Sharkey (THE GUT), Lawrence "Bucko" Burley (THE GUT), Cornelius "Sockless" Grant (pat) and Billy Wickersham (Matt from TN) in 1952. Yes, this will be my 1st ancestor since my 2 grandfathers retired after the 1946 season - Carmack Alford & David Wickersham.

True, I think that the pace wont peter off till the late 50's, and then will just ramp right back up again when all the baby bommers have kids.

And most of mine will be havign different last names, I've exhausted my default family tree, now i'm on the branches.

And it's not the quality (well ok i'd like to see my guys do well), but it's havign a name that I can relate too on rosters. Adds yet another thing that I love about this league and gives me somethign else to follow

Vris · 01-21-2005, 07:20 PM

It's all good I suppose. I just don't think Matt ever expected this to get so gigantic and popular.
