LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.
You will only take two of three if you face my worst pitchers and that's if I'm off my game too :p

I'll avatar bet you that I'll win the series! whoooo

No avatar bet yet. Perhaps if you actually make the playoffs we will bet. :D

Oh and Ramirez tell me you loved how game 3 turned out. You had 16 hits, and I walked two guys as well (walked one in for a run as well with Rich the Thrill Hill) for a total of 18 people on base and I held you to five runs! Of course, you still had the lead 5-4 with two outs in the 8th when the Japanese superstar FUKUDOME comes up and cranks a two run homer to give me the 6-5 lead and a victory! :D Fukudome has been clutch in the rubber game for me the last two series. Against Big E he was the one who hit a solo home run in the top of the 14th to win the game for me, and now he does it again in the 3rd game of a series!

But yeah, all those dump hits you got that game were crazy and if you would have mustered a bit of power I would have lost the game 13-6. Somtimes it is better to be lucky than good!

FMT,

Brett Favre called. He wants the overnight kit he left at your house back along with the "lucky" shirt he gave you. And he said you need to get off your butt and play your MLB games.

gg's denogg! sorry i couldn't get that last game in, have to take off and those games took a bit longer than i thought they would :(
Yeah man. Looks like the league stats are messed up. Our first game didn't register but our second game did. *sigh* I just noticed that it says Scar forfeited his last three games to me but it was GCQuinton. WTF SONY!!!!

Bob, Dez and I were able to get 2 of our games in. We will finish the last one tomorrow if that is at all possible.

It is cool, I will start the new week on Friday.

Oh and DM and Shawn please try to get at least one game in so I can split your last two. :)

The stats "corrected" themselves but things still are FUBAR. Functional, but FUBAR.

FMT,

When do you want to play tonight? I may have a softball game tonight at 8:30 but there is a lot of rain in the forecast. Do you want to shoot for 9EST again?

Last call for DM and Shawn to get their games in. Don't let a coin flip decide the winner of all 3 games! :D

League is advancing tommorrow morning.

I could not play due to the very severe weather here in NC. We had tornadoes just east and west of our house. Lots of damage around us but thankfully the storm took a break as it went over our house. Made for a scary evening.

WOOT POOJULED LIDGE IN THE FIRST GAME WITH FAT ELVIS...WALK OFF HR.

Bobster,I won the first two games and was up 3-2 in the 3rd inning against Mig in the final game and we both got booted.It gave me the win cause it knew I was going to win :p, but is there anything you can do,can we replay it or not?

And the streak continues....19-2,again looking up at me Mr.Boobs!
 

Mrbob

Mig am fail.

Time to boot him from the league!

Oh and enjoy your 12 game winning streak Matrix because it is soon coming to an end!

If the game already gave you the win there is nothing I can do about it.

Yea,but your lucky ass gets to face Chacon and Sampson....not that they will hold me back from beating you.

Anyone know how to contact scar?
AIM = coachgdorm

He can play in the evenings. He has been checking this thread. Just post the times you are free and he will accomodate.

He and I were talking today about the lame-oh's who aren't playing their games. Makes getting into this league hard when so many games are getting simmed.

Scar I am free to play in the evenings but I am West Coast so I am afraid I can only play after 8:30 PM EST.
 

Mrbob

Member
Is there any chance you can play earlier any days this week?

I know Scar lives on the east coast and has to be up early for work. It is a bit unfair to have him play all his games at 11:30PM eastern time.
 

Mrbob

Just a note for everyone, I do want to start moving this league in a faster pace so it doesn't lag behind.

I will start the next week friday morning/afternoon, but after this I'm going to be on a tight 5 day schedule so this league doesn't drag into July.

Also, if some people can't get games in to scheduling conflicts I understand. Here is how I will handle the disputes:

3 games - first two are split, coin flip for third game

2 games - games are split

1 game - flip a coin

Tuesday or Wednesday night? I am usually free after 9PM EST. Can you pick a time that is convenient for you so we can set up a specific time to meet? Thank you.

I'll be drained after today finishing my final, but I can play any time Wednesday. Just AIM me when you're free and we can probably knock 2-3 games out.

Whenever you are ready. I am on AIM right now.

I haven't been able to reach scar on aim. I might have to work OT today but I should be home by 9 EST/6 PST. If I do have OT then I will be home at around 1AM EST. If the games don't get in what are you going to do Bob?
 

Mrbob

Member
Yeah I know you two are having scheduling conflicts. He works in the morning EST, you work at night PST so it makes it tough to get your games in.

This is my plan for all remaining games for people who are trying to get them in but cant:

3 games - first two are split, coin flip for third game

2 games - games are split

1 game - flip a coin

Man I forget who I pitch with against you Bob,been awhile since I played.
 
Hey LJ, hit me up on AIM if you're ready to play our games tonight. AIM: ProfessaSkillset

I don't always have the luxury of being able to check out GAF routinely throughout my workday.

Thanks!

just take the game # and divide by 4. The remainder is the # of the pitcher you choose, with 0 being the 4th starter. Sadly you'll have to count the number of series and multiply by 3, because looking at the standings is a disaster -they're all fucked up cuz of the dropouts.

I'm here if you happen to be around Dez, pretty sure you said you wouldn't be though, just checking.

Bob, he said to give me the win if we couldn't get it in.

Coin flip is the rule!

Anyway, my last game against Core isn't going to go through.

It hasn't registered for us the last couple days. We only got two in and the game says NO OPPONENT the last couple days for both of us. The 3rd game isn't in the unresolved game section either. :/

Fucking Sony and their shitty online league setup. Hopefully this doesn't screw things up.
 

Ramirez

Member
A coin flip even though he's the one that can't make it, told me I could have the win, AND I had won the first two games. That's a great rule to go by, really.
