Can the Generics and Imperialists keep it together, or will the veteran presence of the Bulldogs and the Dervishes finally kill one or both of these teams? Let's see what the brain trust has come up with: Burma Imperialists Armitage (JAC) cbx (DEC) CVE (MDM) gingemidget (WAL) GrickleGrass (MAN) Monathin (CNT) mooseontheloose (HRV) Pander (SAD) Senerio (NOW) Dubai Dervishes Armitage (JAC) gingemidget (WAL) GrickleGrass (MAN) mooseontheloose (HRV) Pander (SAD) ScottyJSno (LOV) theacox (CER) Portland Bulldogs cbx (DEC) ScottyJSno (LOV) Rochester Generics CVE (MDM) Monathin (CNT) Senerio (NOW) theacox (CER) People are still lining up behind the Imperialists, but have shifted from the Generics, for the most part, to the Dervishes, probably because the Dervishes have repeatedly beaten the crap out of the Generics in the regular season, so it's hard to assume that the Generics are just going to magically turn things around now. Only two people like the Bulldogs, and they chose them because of 'random chance' and 'the 1984 Tigers' respectively, which is about the least-ringing endorsement ever. Let's see what really happened: Results The Generics are down! The Generics are down! Imperialists and Dervishes advance! Rollin'! Like the Imperialists, the Dervishes having a down season does not mean they are not a good team, and they've shown that today. Noodles the Pitcher is not ready to go down in the darkness just yet. And then the day came when Pete Alexander cried out "I can do no more!" And so sank the Bulldogs into relegation. But hey, if you can win the Purgatory Gauntlet that will run during Super-League IX, the Skyhawks will make their grand return in Super-League X! You were living on borrowed time, not only in this Gauntlet, but ever since you lost 105 games in the Expansion Cup. Your team should have died a long, long time ago, but through cunning plans, dumb luck and the vagaries of the human spirit, they survived season after season. But it couldn't last forever. Still, kw0134, for a team that never won anything ever, the Generics aren't going to be forgotten soon. Pick 'em: For All Time! Pick Zwei!

The Generics are from Rochester and lost 105 games in the Expansion Cup. They will either be a heartwarming story of redemption, or else a bleak tale of bitter failure and regret. Then again, bitter failure and regret was recently named the official mood of the City of Rochester. Rochester Generics Owner: kw0134 Location: Rochester, NY Home Grounds: Wegmans Stadium Team Used 1924 Washington Senators 1994 California Angels 1998 San Diego Padres 2004 Chicago Cubs Past Records Expansion Cup V 57-105, 8th Place, McQueen League Super-League VI 83-79, 4th Place, Vae Victis Division, Survived Super-League VII 88-74, 2nd Place, Dies Irae Division, Survived Super-League VIII 61-101, 6th Place, Vae Victis Division, Gauntletted Gauntlet VII Round 1: 18-22, 2nd Place, Survived Round 2: 21-19, 2nd Place, Survived Round 3: 23-17, 2nd Place, Survived Round 4: 26-14, 1st Place, Survived Round 5: 22-18, 2nd Place, Survived Round 6: 19-21, 3rd Place, Relegated Championship History 1x Intercontinental Champions 1x United States Champions SUPER-LEAGUE DISTRICT COURT FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, ROCHESTER DIVISION Super-League, Plaintiff vs. Rochester Generics, kw0134, Defendants COMPLAINT NOW COMES Plaintiff Super-League, by and through its attorney, Smasher Dynamo and for its Complaint against Rochester Generics and kw0134 hereby states as follows: JURISDICTION AND VENUE 1. Plaintiff brings this action under the Violence Against Common Sense Act of Super-League III, 13 S.L.C. s. 4242, et seq. ("VACSA"), the Anti-Tanking Act, 8 S.L.C. s. 1721, et seq. ("ATA"), the Anti-Morncale Act, 45 S.L.C. s. 9901.01, et seq., and common law negligence. 2. The Court has jurisdiction pursuant to the following statutes: a. 4 S.L.C. s. 1701, which gives Super-League District Courts original jurisdiction over civil actions arising under Super-League Law. b. 17 S.L.C. s. 1367, which gives Super-League District Courts supplemental jurisdiction over state claw claims. 3. Venue is appropriate in this judicial district under 32 S.L.C. s. 1488(b) because the events that gave rise to this Complaint occurred in this district. PARTIES 4. Plaintiff is a league duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Mark Grace, with its principal place of business located in the hearts of all mankind. 5. Defendant Rochester Generics is a franchise duly organized and existing under the laws of the Super-League. 6. Defendant kw0134 is the owner of the Rochester Generics. Defendant kw0134 is being sued in his official capacity as owner of the Rochester Generics. As such, he had a duty to ensure that his team did not completely suck. General Allegations 7. The Super-League Organic statute, is codified at 1 S.L.C. s. 43 et seq. It provides for the mechanism by which teams are admitted and relegated to the Super-League. Teams are typically admitted through the Expansion Cup process, and relegated through the use of the Gauntlet. 8. Pursuant to this scheme, when a new team is created, the owner chooses a set number of points worth of feeder teams from which to form a 28 (later 30) man roster. Once this team is created, it is entered into the Expansion Cup competition against the other newly created teams of its class. 1 S.L.C. s. 43(a)-(d). Once the Expansion Cup concludes, teams are given dispersal draft picks based on their finish in the Expansion Cup, from which to further fortify their team for the Super-League season. 1 S.L.C. s. 43(e)(ii). It is a violation of Super-League statute to intentionally lose games with the willful and intentional purpose of gaining better dispersal draft picks. 8 S.L.C. s. 1721(c). 9. Section 47 of the Super-League Organic concerns the regulation of trades between existing franchises. 1 S.L.C. s. 47. Further sections in the Super-League code make illegal, or otherwise regulate, the ability of owners to trade amongst each other for the common good. 10. There is a long history in the Super-League of negligence actions being taken against owners who have been ruled to have willfully harmed their team through inaction. Super-League vs. NotQuiteQuentin, 17 S.L.2d 1501, 1505 (S.L. VI). COUNT 1 Violation of Violence Against Common Sense Act 11. Plaintiff incorporates and restates each of the above paragraphs as if fully set forth therein. 12. Defendant kw0134 has violated the Violence Against Common Sense Act by engaging in a series of transactions and roster alignments that have, per the terms of the statute, "made a mockery of logical thought and/or reasonable practices." 13 S.L.C. s. 4242(a). 13. On or about Super-League VI-VIII, and on multiple occasions, defendant kw0134 inserted Chuck Finley into his rotation despite the fact that Chuck Finley has never proven to be a good pitcher for anyone, either in the Super-League or in real life. 14. On or about Super-League VII, defendant kw0134 chose to put Chick Hafey at first base despite the fact that Chick Hafey was not by trade a first baseman, nor had the requisite batting skills to play that position in the Super-League. 15. On or about Super-League VII, defendant kw0134 entered into a corporate agreement with several other owners to create the St. Paul Bearers, LLC. Defendant kw0134 then allowed this franchise to be put in the same league as his Rochester Generics, despite the fact that, because of Super-League rules, the success of either team would, by necessity, harm the other. 16. On or about the Gauntlet rounds of Super-League VII, Smasher Dynamo, commissar of Plaintiff, wrote a multi-part obituary for the St. Paul Bearers that he ultimately found to be rather disappointing, likely as the result of defendant kw0134's lack of personality. 17. On or about the Gauntlet rounds of Super-League VIII, defendant kw0134 admitted, in the public Super-League thread, that he was "history's greatest monster". When in fact, disclosing such information to the rest of humanity would be a decidedly foolish thing for such a monster to do. 18. On or about his entire tenure in the Super-League, defendant kw0134 has resided in the vicinity of Rochester, New York, a city so devoid of any hope and or happiness that courts have previously ruled it a mental defect or disease to have willfully lived there for any duration of time. The People of Earth vs. Rochester, 532 U.S. 1785, 1821 (1985). 19. Each of the preceding allegations violates VACSA and have harmed the Super-League through a weakening of competitive balance. COUNT 2 Violation of Anti-Morncale Act 20. Plaintiff incorporates and restates each of the above paragraphs as if fully set forth therein. 21. On or about Week 15 of Super-League VII, defendant kw0134 learned that Barry Bonds, his starting left fielder and by far that strongest part of his team, was injured and would be unable to play for his team for the remainder of the season. 22. At the time, the Rochester Generics were in strong competition for one of four safe spots from the Gauntlet. 23. On or about Week 17 of Super-League VII, defendant kw0134 drafted an agreement with Morncale, owner of the Web 2.0 Bloggers, to trade Barry Bonds to the Bloggers in exchange for Chick Hafey and a number of other essentially valueless pieces. 24. On or about Week 18, defendant kw0134 and Mornacale formalized their agreement and sent the transaction to the Commissar's offense for approval. 25. With no legal ability to block the trade, Smasher Dynamo approved the trade, sending Barry Bonds to the Bloggers in exchange for Chick Hafey. 26. On or about Week 12 of Super-League VIII, Smasher Dynamo passed the Anti-Mornacale Act that authorized retroactive punishment for any team or owner found to have made agreements or otherwise transacted with either Mornacale or the Web 2.0 Bloggers. 27. By trading Barry Bonds to the Bloggers, defendant kw0134 strengthened the roster of the Web 2.0 Bloggers, therefore increasing the chance that they would survive, causing considerable emotional damage to Commissar Dynamo, who would be forced to deal with another season of Mornacale's unreasonable and meaningless roster tweaks. COUNT 3 Violation of the Anti-Tanking Act 28. Plaintiff incorporates and restates each of the above paragraphs as if fully set forth therein. 29. Under the Anti-Tanking Act, it is a violation of Super-League law to willfully lose games in the Expansion Cup in order to improve one's draft position. 8 S.L.C. s. 1721(a). 30. On or about Expansion Cup V, the Rochester Generics lost 107 games in a 162 game season, amassing the worst record in the Expansion Cup. 31. Despite these losses, the Generics went on to survive for three Super-League seasons, made all the more amazing given the high rates of attrition that lead to most Super-League teams getting relegated after a single season. 32. Given these facts, it is alleged that defendant kw0134 intentionally "tanked" during Expansion Cup V in order to gain an advantage in the dispersal draft, a violation of the anti-tanking act. COUNT 4 Negligence Claims 33. Plaintiff incorporates and restates each of the above paragraphs as if fully set forth therein. 34. Defendant kw0134 just seems like a guy who would be negligent, and that is a bad thing. REQUESTED RELIEF WHEREFORE, the Plaintiff respectfully requests relief as follows: (A) For preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, relegating the Generics from the Super-League in perpetuity. (B) For statutory damages for each violation of Super-League laws, pursuant to 18 S.L.C. s.1777 (C) For Plaintiffs' reasonable attorneys' fees incurred herein. (D) For such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper. (E) And for an order proclaiming that kw0134 was a good sport, and a class act. Smasher Dynamo, Attorney for the Super-League

Expansion Cup VIII Playoffs: Taggart League Championship Series - Tijuana Mules vs CERN Colliders Owner: Bograt Hometown: Tijuana, Mexico (playing out of San Diego, CA) Teams Used: 1987 New York Yankees, 1989 San Diego Padres, 1990 Los Angeles Dodgers, 2006 Cincinatti Reds Regular Season Record: 90-72 At first blush, the Taggart League's Championship Series looks very similar to the McQueen League's: a barely-above .500 team wins a weak division to earn a series against one of the Cup's juggernaughts. That's about where the similarities end. Unfortunately for Bograt and his Mules, they went 6-12 against the Colliders in regular season play, and unlike the Potatoes, the Mules took hold of the TL Downing Division and never looked back, beating the nearest competitor Million Dollar Men by 11 games for the division crown. Which isn't to say the Mules have a terrible team. They've got a few good hitters and a few gems on the pitching staff. But because of the nature of Expansion Cup VIII, the Taggart League Championship Series will prove to be their first real test: a seven game series against the second-best record in the Cup, where it will be win or go home. It's time to see just how good the Mules are. Jack Murphy Stadium, Tijuana, Mexico Jack Murphy Stadium will host Games 3, 4, and 5. Owner: theacox Hometown: Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada Teams Used: 1915 Philadelphia Athletics, 1927 New York Yankees, 1953 Milwaukee Braves Regular Season Record: 101-61 One of the, if not the best team in the Cup this year, the Colliders fought off a late resurgance from the Omaha Forgettables to take the TL Sele Division crown. There are so many good spots for the Colliders that if I listed them all this writeup would go longer than the MLCS did, so here's just a few bulletpoints: - The Colliders outscored their opponents 855-666 in the regular season. - The 3/4/5 spots in the Colliders lineup (Gehrig/Ruth/Mathews) combined for 104 HRs and 368 RBIs. Gehrig and Ruth both hit over .300. - The highest ERA in the Colliders 4-man playoff rotation? 3.88. Yeah, the Colliders are good. And now comes the time where they need to prove it. The Large Hadron Collider (stadium dimensions: Old Yankee Stadium) The Large Hadron Collider will host Games 1, 2, 6, and 7. As to why the Large Hadron Collider is in New Brunswick in the Super-League universe...

Bringing the ideals of the revolution to the Super-League since SLVIII! Also, until SLVIII. Owner: Shadow gamer Location: Havana, Cuba Home Grounds: Olympic Stadium Teams Used 1950 St. Louis Browns 1986 Oakland A's 1951 Philadelphia Phillies 2004 Atlanta Braves Past Records Expansion Cup VII 74-89, 3rd Place, Laissez-Faire Division I was in my office putting the final touches on my latest magnum opus when I heard a knocking at my door. It was, of course, Andy Pettitte of the Cuba Smokers. It happens every time: I write some poor team's obituary, and suddenly, all their players come crawling out of the woodwork, demanding more of the spotlight. Pettitte's case was rather egregious, since he was already the main character. Nonetheless, I already had a reputation as a Yankee hater, so I had to at least hear the rear end in a top hat out. No doubt he was here to offer some 'constructive' criticism. "I'm here to offer some constructive criticism," said Andy. I should, at this time, point out that as the narrator, I know what they're going to say in advance. I told him to by all means proceed, that I wasn't doing anything vitally important, and that his interruption was certainly not substantially delaying the posting of his team's obituary in the thread. He, of course, immediately launched into a tirade about my writing, completely oblivious to my sarcasm. "Actually, your sarcasm was very clear, I just chose to ignore it because you're a dickhead," said Pettitte. No he didn't. He was COMPLETELY OBLIVIOUS TO MY SARCASM. "Uh... where was I? Oh, yeah, I'm glad you're not doing anything vitally important, because there are a few points I'd like to go over with you about this latest obit," he said. "First off, I think maybe it might be beneficial to discuss a larger variety of players on the team. As it is, you only mention me and Lindy McDaniel. I'd think in a proper team obit, you'd want to discuss some of the team's low points, like Ned Garver's struggles, or Mark McGwire's .203 batting average, or Richie Ashburn's inexplicably awful defense. I mean, those are major parts of why the team was relegated." Well, there was some validity to that criticism. It was true, the obit did focus primarily on Pettitte and McDaniel. I barely even mentioned Jim Kaat and Sherm Lollar, and I'd completely forgotten Jay Howell, Curt Young, and Jim Konstanty. But, I explained to Mr. Pettitte, a short story is much better when it is tightly focused. Too many characters make it hard to follow the plot, make it hard to give them any depth. In fact, I told him, in my latest re-write, I'd actually reduced the size of McDaniel's role, to focus more tightly on Pettitte's own story. I had hoped he'd be grateful, but of course he was not. "That brings me to my other point," he said. "In this latest re-write, I noticed the new title of the piece." One of my finest triumphs, I love that title! "I think maybe it's a touch... overboard?" I explained to him that over-long titles like that are a staple of comedy going back many, many years. The exaggerated length of the title was, itself, a key joke, a callback to older times when titles like that were common while at the same time ridiculing them. He kept trying to interrupt me, but, being the narrator, I am rather hard to interrupt. Finally, at great length, I finished my explanation. Interview complete, I turned to post the obituary on the site. "Only, the length's not my issue with the title," he said. Sneering disdainfully, I asked him what he could possibly mean, conveying that I knew full well that nothing he could suggest could ever even marginally improve my own, superior work. "Well... 'The Tragic Loss of Innocence: Or, How the Cuba Smokers Were Doomed to Relegation by the Bungling Incompetence of the Repugnant Andy Pettitte, Despicable Yankee Filth' just seems a little... mean-spirited?" Perhaps, I told him, but it's too late now, I just hit post.

COMES NOW the Defendant ROCHESTER GENERICS and kw0134 in answering the allegations of the Complaint on file herein, affirms, denies and alleges as follows: Answering the counts 1-6, Defendant AFFIRMS only that kw0134 is the owner of the ROCHESTER GENERICS and that the Plaintiff as so named. Defendant avers that forum would be proper insofar that this Court has personal jurisdiction over monsters, which Defendant will move for a special appearance to contest. Answering the counts 7-10, Defendant AFFIRMS the legal recitation. Answering the counts 11, 12, 15, 16, Defendant DENIES the allegations. Plaintiff was the first, sole, and final arbiter of the placement of the St. Paul Bearers, and Defendant cannot be made negligent when primary responsibility for league balance rests with the Plaintiff. Moreover, as a partial owner whose decisions must be ratified according to the corporate charter, kw0134 bears no personal liability for business decisions in connection with the running of a corporate team. Any such liability would adhere only to the corporate body itself, which is moot with the St. Paul Bearers now defunct. Answering the counts 13, 14, Defendant DENIES the allegations. Discovery will show that Hafey had batting figures that consistently lead the team, and Defendant also avers that Kaline was not worthless trade bait. Finley had high K/9 ratios that belie his reputation and the event Plaintiff would in light of the roster ask that Phil Niekro pitch instead, which as is commonly known, really really dumb. Answering count 17, Defendant AFFIRMS only that he made such a statement, but as a matter of law false given the existence of Brooklyn Bruiser. (C.f., In re Brooklyn Bruiser Challenge to Gumshoes, 43 S.L. 312 (Season 7).) Answering count 18, Defendant AFFIRMS without further comment. Answering count 19, Defendant DENIES based on the foregoing Answers above. Answering the counts 20-27, Defendant DENIES that the trade was done with any malicious intent to harm Plaintiff. If such was the standard, all participants with Mornacale must be held jointly and severally liable and Plaintiff should add the many appropriate parties to this action. This action is also premature as Bloggers have yet to escape the Gauntlet and their fate is undetermined. Answering the counts 28-32, Defendant DENIES that he tanked and maintains that the GENERICS lasted as long as they did through ineffable luck and large wholesale replacement of the roster through challenges made available by the Plaintiff himself. Answering the counts 33-34, Defendant DENIES based on available evidence. AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSES 1. This Court has no personal jurisdiction over monsters, as Plaintiff alleges, and so this action must be dismissed. 2. The applicable statutes reside in men's hearts, but as Defendant is allegedly a monster and thus without a heart said statutes do not reach him and so the Court must dismiss as there is no basis for relief. 3. The harm arising from Defendant's interactions with Mornacale has yet to be happen, and thus no actual harm has come to pass. The associated complaints must be dismissed for lack of standing as there is no current case or controversy to be adjudicated. WHEREFORE, Defendant prays that Plaintiff take nothing and a judgment be entered according the same. Further, Defendant prays for a Declaratory Judgment that kw0134 is a swell guy and his rights to enter future Super Leagues notwithstanding this pending action shall not be infringed.

Excellent! The..."supplements" I've slipped into the water supply for the Mules seem to have worked well enough to keep me from being completely humiliated. Seriously, though, that was a hell of a lot closer than I thought it was going to be. By the end of the write-up of my third win, I was actually believing I stood a chance. Still, forcing it to a full 7 games against the Colliders makes me pretty proud of my boys. Also, I'm just going to hold Buddy Bell's head in the sink until the twitching stops. It's really the only humane thing to do.

You see, a few slight miscalculations can lead to a nearly disastrous result. The fate of the world seemingly rests in the hands of the Colliders. For the reason, we have hired a consultant for further playoff calculations. All further scientific formulae will be in his control. Pray for humanity.
