Wow, scoring held to the single digits for both teams.  That won't ever happen again.

My two headed BlyTudor monster finally came through.

Wooooo!

CP is going to need better production from Dale Murphy in the cleanup spot....

It was quite the "pitcher's duel" - at least what counts for that in our league. My team is really predicated on Murphy driving people home, and he's been great at that all season. Just not yesterday.

I've got the footage of yesterday's game if anyone is interested in watching it. Unfortunately, I'm having trouble being able to post the files here as attachments. For right now, if you are interested in looking at the game footage, let me know and I'll can e-mail it to you (make sure that you have enough free space to handle a pretty large video file.) I'm more than happy to send out game footage of just your games or all games to you guys if you let me know.

I'd love to have the footage of my next game, possibly any of my games, that would be cool.

I can host the footage if it's under 20 megs and only a few people are going to be downloading it, if that works better for you, fightonusc.

That might work. The ZIP files are about 5 to 7 MBs each - each game segment is much, much larger than that on their own. It might be easier if I send over a two-minute long animated GIF of highlights of the game - it's about 3 MB total, and should be a lot easier for you to deal with.

What's the best way to get the files to you?

[defen]

The highlights are up, bandwidth is semi-limited, so if it doesn't work, try again in a couple of hours.
