P413 Season 13 2031 mini-whale league - Page 3

NY Titans squashed me in Diamond, now I have him in my division again in Perfect!

Dunzie · 02-25-2019, 07:06 PM

Is it just me... or is everyone looking through rosters going "holy (insert your favorite expletive here)!!" This is going to be tough sledding. Seems everybody upgraded somewhat in the off season, or tweaked their roster and parks to some kind of theme and, well dayam it's looking like a highly competitive league this year.

I think I'm going to hold off for now in wishing everyone the best of luck just yet...

Abnerdoubleday · 02-25-2019, 07:13 PM

It's going to be a long season for the Dixon Cornbelt boys

daveh2018 · 02-25-2019, 07:14 PM

Was appreciative of seeing standings a few posts earlier, until I saw my Davidsons with their yellow stripe (NASCAR reference) as 1st time Perfect Leaguers with our 2-7 start out of the gate.

Clearly, we are not in Kansas any more.

blitzblazin · 02-25-2019, 07:50 PM

Yes somebody finally took down Wilmington! Good Job Bedford.

chazzycat · 02-25-2019, 07:59 PM

wow, again Babe Ruth with no production in April...come on man! You're killin me, Smalls!

Dunzie · 02-25-2019, 08:06 PM

End the season NOW! End it!!! Puh-LEEEAASE!!!!

Had to get a photo. Likely the only day all season I'll be in this position.

Seriously, can we do the payouts based on today?

Orcin · 02-25-2019, 08:27 PM

*Orcin channels his inner Zorro*

Ok look you freaking bums... I can be relegated without your sorry bleeps. I can get a bunch of silvers to play this well. In fact... I might just do that! You had it easy here on the Colonels. Well tonight you are going to find yourselves on the cold hard auction block.

Randy Johnson... you cost me a ton of points back in the day.. but you have stunk the last three years and now you have a 8.31 ERA in the freaking bullpen! I can get silver Dennis Martinez to do that. You're fired!

Pee Wee Reese... yeah your defense is elite but you are hitting .156.. well now you are HITTING the ROAD Jack.

Rod Carew... I don't care if every other Rod Carew hits .300... you are hitting .211 for me. TWO FREAKING ELEVEN!!!! Bye sucker.

John Smoltz... yeah everyone says you are second tier... I want to throw you and your bleeping 5+ ERA out of the TWENTY-second story. I am sick of your face. Get off my roster!

Cleon Jones.. you kept telling me that you should be playing full time. Well now you got your shot and you are hitting a bleeping .226... AND THAT MAKES YOU A TEAM LEADER!!!!

Team is built for pitching and defense and we are ranked in the bottom three in all of that. WTF!

What? What is that funny looking white contraption? You aren't putting that on me... wait a minute... stop... you can't do

Abnerdoubleday · 02-25-2019, 08:41 PM

I feel your pain. Really! My team also with another blazing start. Opened the season 0-7. Now at 7-12 and now have a series with the Champs.

Zorro · 02-25-2019, 09:06 PM

Hi guys, I had a bad fall today so I will not be able to be around much. I will try and set my team at times but I am in a lot of pain and kind of incapacitated so if you don’t see me around that is why. Good luck to all and finally we have a real league. Great work Orcin.😁

Zorro, hate to hear that. Hope you get to feeling better bub.

Dunzie · 02-25-2019, 09:10 PM

Well let me toss something COOL at you. I meant to post this up in the P412 season thread from last week, but it fits here now. Last year my Doolittle 89 went the complete season without allowing a run. 44 outings, 21-1/3 IP, 0 RA.

Of course as you can see he wasted NO time in throwing it all out the window this year.

Speaking of this year... the LAST time the Blue Gryphons were in P413 was the 2025 season. Let's hope there's some magical foreshadowing there... that was their Perfect League championship season. They're due.

pappyzan · 02-25-2019, 09:10 PM

Nobody in the NC Central has a positive run differential. YEAH BABY

Yikes sorry to hear. Hope you're ok and get on the mend quick.

I'll take it easy on you.

I haven't spent a lot of time looking, but I do like our division. I think it's going to be a close battle.

Oh no, get better soon my friend. It's not the same without you around.

Sorry to hear that.

Maybe you need to take it easy with the sword fights?

You fell? Ow man.

When people ask me how old I am I say one of two things. I either say I'm old enough that I have to do math to figure out how old I am (because I cannot ever remember more than it's that difficult to figure out) or I say that I'm old enough that I should sit down while putting on and taking off pants so that I don't fall.

I just almost killed myself last week when I fell full force into the bathroom counter while trying to take my pants off getting into the shower and my entire arm was black and blue. I still have some weird lump in my elbow that I have no idea what it is.

Yeah, that's what getting old is like and I'm still a young 47. I hope you're ok dude.

Thanks for the update. Take care, my friend. Slips, trips, and falls can be dangerous for the super-experienced guys like us. I will try to keep the standards high for you until you are back and can supervise properly.

Wishing a quick recovery....you are a big reason this league is fun to read.

I wish we could get you a copy of mobile OOTP for PT (summer 2019?) so you could look at your team from the comfort of your own bed.
