1930's Kiki Cuyler for whatever Beltran you have. He's never going to put up Beltran's power numbers, but he hits for average, gets on base and can steal some bases, and has somehting resembling a plus glove.

Banners     Also, I've decided to only do one more pick-'em update. This is because a) I'm not sure at the minute how the last round of the Gauntlet is working, and b) dramatic tension.

Honestly no. My best guess would be 2011 but there's apparently another one running around so unless two people took the 2011 Giants as feeders I have no idea.

 The following contest is scheduled for the best four-out-of-seven games, and it is for the undisputed championship of Super-League VII! Introducing first, the challenger, and the reigning champion of the Dynamo League. They are the two-time defending Vae Victis Division Champions, and ayatollahs of rock 'n rolla, hailing from the rad wastes of Northwestern Illinois, they are the Rockford Losers!  The Losers come into this series have defeated the Imperialists and Finger-Bangers. There is some concern, however, that Satchel Paige's re-roll might have gone terribly wrong, as can occasionally happen, and Lord Mayor Humungus has been working with his AI manager to try and find a work-around for this problem.  Rockford Municipal Stadium Rockford, IL Rockford Municipal Stadium will host Games 4, 5, 6 and 7 of this series. [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCR85u9QngQ]And now, the defending Super-League Champions, they are the two-time Smasher League Champions, four-time Senor Goodtimes Division Champions, and the current unified Television and Heavyweight Champions. From the city of Chicago, and still living in a state of Grace, ladies and gentlemen, these are your Chicago Bobbleheads!.   Wrigley Field Chicago, IL Wrigley Field will host Games 1, 2 and 3 of this series. Game 1 Don May posted:

Who the gently caress replaced my Satchel Paige with the Bronies' copy? Secondly, did every single position player on my roster get a bad roll in the finals series file? I can't believe that Frank Robinson was my only starter capable of hitting above the Mendoza line against that pitching staff. I literally don't believe it. Congrats, Bobbleheads. Beat the Macho Men and let chaos reign! edit: Smasher, one last question: is there a way to set my strategy sliders in the future to get my brain-dead AI manager to leave my starters out on the field longer? I'm fully aware I only really have 2.5 or 3 capable relievers, so I'm a little baffled why my AI manager would be so quick on the hook to bring on the bullpen. edit2: And the AI didn't even use my best reliever Smoltz once over the course of the whole series!

Some housekeeping First, unless the owners of Catalina 2 Fish 1 Bubble, Flushing Flying Dutchmen and the Venice Beach Surf show up in the next 48 hours, I'm eliminating their teams. Second, the Oranges-Cultists boondoggle is approved. Third, because we're almost certainly going to have three more slots in Super-League VIII to fill, they will distributed as follows. The Coburns will be given one of the slots. The other two will go to the second and third-place finishes in Round 9 of the Gauntlet, with the following proviso: -Senerio does not wish to continue his Saints into Super-League VIII, but is even less inclined to let the Bulldogs survive because of a long-standing grudge between the two owners. Therefore, the Saints, if they survive the final round of the Gauntlet, will give their spot in Super-League VIII to the third-place finisher in Round 8 of the Gauntlet, if the Bulldogs end up being last in the final round of the Gauntlet. e: As you point out, ToiletofSadness, Paige has been this bad before in the Super-League, so this wasn't wholly unprecedented. As for the struggles of your lineup, sometimes these things just happen. My guess is that they just weren't a lineup particularly well-suited to deal with the relatively high-K starters of the Bobbleheads. As for the AI issue, I'm not sure exactly what the problem is, because sometimes your manager will let Don Drysdale throw 140 pitches, and sometimes he'll pull Paige after four or five innings. The Skyhawks had the same problem in their last couple of seasons. And your manager didn't use Smoltz because you were never really that close to winning a game. If he were going to use Smoltz, it would have been in Game 3, but I guess the AI was foolishly saving for him for the save opportunity, which, admittedly, is rather realistic.

As for the struggles of your lineup, sometimes these things just happen. Looking through the box scores again, yeah, my team struck out a little bit more than I'd like (especially Youk and Tejada who were black holes on offense for most of the playoffs), but I just couldn't draw a walk to help out the hitting woes (4 total over the whole series). Bobbleheads' starters were apparently just throwing BBs all series. I suppose, using Myers over Smoltz made sense from a platoon advantage standpoint, but, still, it's not like the AI manager doesn't use Smoltz for 2 inning non-save appearances most of the time anyway. Given my team held Ruth and Grace to a combined 2 XBHs, I was hoping for a better result than a complete sweep. Tough beat.

My specific issue is with the fact that the Portland Bulldogs have taken advantage of the new owner 11th point without being punished. Sure, you can argue with the fact that the loss of dispersal draft picks would be enough of a punishment, but I feel that is far, far too little, especially because he had already vacated a pick and was all the way down at #14.

They were, if I remember correctly, one of the worst teams during their Expansion Cup but were able to survive a Vae Victis with 3 90-win teams because of strong drafting. I think they even finished above .500 that season. They gave Dubai a hell of a fight this season.

 From the fantastical land of Barrow, which is either a small city in England or a fantastical kingdom where wizards and demons fight an endless war for supremacy over the Kingdom of Albion, the Daydreamers hoped to become the first British in Super-League history to not be astonishingly disappointing! Spoiler: they failed. Owner: gingemidget Location: Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, UK Home Grounds: Trethowan Park Teams Used 1918 New York Yankees 1979 Texas Rangers 1993 Atlanta Braves 2001 Chicago White Sox Past Records 103-59, Skyhawks Division Champions Lost 1-4 to Polyarny Postmodernists in TLCS Super League VII 75-87, 4th in Dies Irae Division Gauntlet VI Round 5: 19-21, 3rd Place, Relegated She was the most beautiful woman I'd ever seen in my life. She had a body men would start wars for, tall, graceful, willowy. Or possibly petite and curvaceous. I can't quite recall now. Her face had an ethereal beauty to it, the regal perfection of a Greek statue, or possibly the smouldering sensuality of an angel looking for an excuse to fall. Her hair was amazing, though I can't actually remember if it was long or short, or what color it was. Her eyes would haunt me forever, but I remember nothing about them. She was the most beautiful woman I'd ever seen in my life, but I don't know what she looked like. We stood on a beach, on a cool, crisp spring morning, the kind you get right at the start of the year. Overhead, a pair of gulls circled, waiting for tourists to steal from. It'd be a few weeks yet before the tourists showed up, but they were patient. Their calls, and the gentle lapping of wave on sand, was all we could hear, though I know that spot, and usually you can hear traffic from the street behind you from there. Today, there was no one but us, and the gulls. The early morning sunlight kissed the water at just that perfect angle that gives it a red sheen, but I was not a sailor and took no warning. The sand, a brilliant white in the early sun, was still chilled from the long winter, so that it felt almost like curling my toes in a strange, coarse snow. And she said, "Nobody's ever won anything with the 90's Braves," and the world was jarred from its moorings. It was summer now, in the woods behind the house where I grew up. I knew them well; there was little else to do in the middle of nowhere but explore the woods. And believe me, I spent most of my childhood looking for other things to do. But today, with the trees shading us from the blazing sun, it felt like the most natural place in the world to be, as if I fit there in a way I never had as a kid. I was immersed in the sounds of the place, the cries of birds overhead, the rustling of leaves in the breeze, and beneath it all, the unremitting buzz of the infinite insectile hordes that plagued those woods. But today, they were not pests; I felt connected to the world around me in a way I never had in the past, and she said, "I don't think Al Oliver is going to work out in center in the Super League," and the life around me faded to nothing. The leaves were turning now, but they felt far away. The old school building, faded bricks and bad memories, loomed above us, but we stood facing away from it, looking out across the parking lot at the old ball field. I'd heard they'd renovated the place, but I couldn't see anything different about it: same old crumbling wooden fence surrounding the outfield, same ragged old basketball hoops beyond it, same complete absence of kids here on the weekends. I didn't have many fond memories of that ball field, and looking at it made me feel strangely guilty somehow. So instead, I focused on the basketball courts. I'd spent most of my adult life immersed in that game, playing, watching, even coaching. But as I looked, it came back to me: as a kid, I'd been loving terrible at it. There were no good memories to hide in here, and she said, "Mark Wohlers? He's terrible!" and the world sunk into darkness. It was bitter cold in the corridor. It was pitch black, too, though somehow I could still see. The walls were a smooth, uniform grey, the tiled floor a dirty off-white. Overhead hung dingy fluorescent lights, though they weren't actually on, and there didn't seem to be any way to turn them on. I walked, my legs moving even though I couldn't recall having told them to. I knew she was behind me, beautiful as ever, but somehow, I didn't want to turn and look at her. Even though I knew it was a dream, my legs ached from the walking, and my lungs burned with the endless cold. Finally, we reached an intersection and stopped, and she spoke and the world did not fade. "You've seen where you came from. Now choose where you're going. Down one path, reality: the Daydreamers were not a very good team. As was inevitable, they have been relegated. It's all over. There's nothing left but to move on, alone. Down the other path, the dream: eternal, unchanging, a chance to live forever in that one moment before it all went bad." Put like that, the choice was obvious.

  Results      Due to a technicality, the Unicorns can't be relegated in the final round of the Gauntlet. So, I guess we'll see just how much Barry Bonds has improved your team in Super-League VIII. Oh, I guess you are playing for your fifth Intercontinental Championship, so that's something.    In the same boat as the Unicorns, the Oranges will also automatically survive into Super-League VIII. Don't put Joba in your starting rotation this time, if not for yourself, then for me.    You're not technically dead yet. If the Bulldogs end up in last place in the final round of the Gauntlet, then your team will survive, because Senerio is deadset on making sure the Bulldogs get relegated if he can. Given how well the Oranges and Unicorns are playing, that's probably a fifty-fifty shot, and those are odds that Detective Don Slaught is willing to gamble on.    One of my dad's favorite clips from The Simpsons is where Homer becomes a Krusty look-a-like. So Homer-as-Krusty is at the opening of a new KrustyBurger, and a Hamburglar knockoff shows up. Homer being Homer, he doesn't realize that it's not real, so starts savagely beating the Hamburglar knockoff for a long time, at which point the camera pans to the faces of the horrified children who have been watching the grisly scene, and one of them cries out "Stop, stop! He's already dead!" So, yeah. Next Time!         FINAL Pick'em! PICK THREE! Cleveland Unicorns Florida Oranges Portland Bulldogs Second City Saints

Yeah, well, in other good news, the live draft is going to start on Monday, after the final Gauntlet update. Hopefully, this will give a me of time off from the thread, so that I can finish the last few obits I need to, as well as prepare for Super-League VIII. Anyway, since Catalina is going to be bumped from the league, that means that the Spokane Air Raids will have the first selection, so ManifunkDestiny, that's something to keep in mind. I'll think I'll use a twelve-hour clock or so for picks. Beyond that, if and when the Bobbleheads gets retired by the Macho Men, both the Heavyweight Championship and Television Championships will be vacated. I'm not sure who gets the Heavyweight title. I'll probably run a quick tournament/short season thing to figure that out. I have some plans for the other titles to save me a bit of work in the updates going forward, but I'll explain those later. Warm Sarsaparilla You still out there? The Coburns need a roster.

A 12 hour window is really long; the draft could take three weeks, and a lot of owners would stop paying attention with that little activity in the thread. Unless you plan on having the clock reset after each pick, which I would strongly recommend. FWIW, I think this is the updated draft order: Round 1 1. Spokane (.393) 2. Seattle (.436) 3. Florida (.442) 4. New England (.448) 5. Cuba (.454) 6. Philadelphia (.472) 7. San Juan (.479) 8. Oneida (.506) 9. New Orleans (.515) 10. Wausau (.519) 11. Hartford (.528) 12. Cleveland (.540) 13. Albany (.543) 14. Providence (.546) 15. Cancun (.636) Sandwich Round 16. Philadelphia (.472) Round 2 17. Spokane (.393) 18. Seattle (.436) 19. Florida (.442) 20. New England (.448) 21. Cuba (.454) 22. Philadelphia (.472) 23. San Juan (.479) 24. Oneida (.506) 25. New Orleans (.515) 26. Wausau (.519) 27. Hartford (.528) 28. Cleveland (.540) 29. Albany (.543) 30. Providence (.546) 31. Web 2.0 (.564) 32. Cancun (.636) Round 3 33. Spokane (.393) 34. Seattle (.436) 35. Florida (.442) 36. New England (.448) 37. Cuba (.454) 38. Philadelphia (.472) 39. San Juan (.479) 40. Oneida (.506) 41. Wausau (.519) 42. Hartford (.528) 43. Cleveland (.540) 44. Albany (.543) 45. Providence (.546) 46. Web 2.0 (.564) 47. Cancun (.636)
