Fantasy RBI Week 3

[Attezz]

Anyone want to set odds on which game this week was all fucked up?

[AlecTrevylan006]

It doesn't hurt that Tudor is batting .400 or so. In the second inning, two quick outs, up comes Tudor, infield single to keep the inning alive. 8 runs and 0 outs later, he comes up again and gets ANOTHER infield single (this one for an RBI, giving the mercy-lead) to keep the inning alive AGAIN. Talk about helping your own cause. Clutch hitting, clutch pitching.

...that just made me realize... 14 runs in that inning with two outs. I had 15 consecutive batters reach without recording a final out. Fernando was looking good til then, but then he got shelled.

[AlecTrevylan006]

And as I finally look at the schedule...

I face the OC 3 times in 4 weeks, that could be make or break. I play a pair back to back with the blue ribbons....

And Darky, I will bet a testicle that you have given up more than 10 runs at least twice, nay, THREE times by the end of my first game with you. Take it or leave it right now.

[Darky]

Yeah, Tudor was clutch at the plate. I hate when opposing pitchers get a hit, certainly creates an impact in the game. I lucked out against Ryno's team...no hits from his pitchers.

About Nando, I wonder if he's running his poles? I bet he lightly jogs them and cheats out of doing how many he's supposed to do. The dude runs out of gas after he pitches a couple of good innings. It's all them damn screwballs he throws lol.

The Gantry league has one team over .500 so far. Remember, top three in each league go to the playoffs.
Doverbi league is a tough one.

And as I finally look at the schedule...

I face the OC 3 times in 4 weeks, that could be make or break. I play a pair back to back with the blue ribbons....

And Darky, I will bet a testicle that you have given up more than 10 runs at least twice, nay, THREE times by the end of my first game with you. Take it or leave it right now.

I'm sure it will happen, but not over 15-17 runs...and we'll still win. In all the sim games I run, we pretty much keep the score low for Fantasy standards.

I got a huge showdown with the Chocolate Rain. We're both undefeated and it's for first place.

You guys should dismantle the Rebel Alliance pretty fast. The OC series will be huge. TBG is two time champions and his teams are usually pretty tough.

I wonder if anything will happen during the trade weeks? Weeks 8-12 it is. Last year there were some major trades that took place. Reggie Jackson got traded twice! lol

[ryno]

okay, so now you can post the game that I actually won.

[Attezz]

okay, so now you can post the game that I actually won.

There's only 6 of those, it's easier to post the one that you lost.

[ryno]

I think he fucked with the fielding settings too.  I'm telling you, there were no less than 7 direct hits to the 3B that just miraculously zipped by him.

There are so many instances of shenanigans with darkside it's not even funny. 

I think we need to keep his balls in a vice.  He'll cheat every chance we allow.

[Mike D.]

Take your 7 and add the 20 during the Sally Cunts game.

[Darky]

HAAAAAA! You bitter sallys.

Ryno, we killed Pedriq! Your little firecracker's fuse was a dud.

I actually tried to get the PBR's to win. I ran about 20 games in a row, and they could not take down the Empire once! HAAAAAAAAA

Anyways, I'm gonna start working on the recaps and the stats. My kids are here, and my son is really interested in this league. Look for week 4 to begin on Sunday, but it could happen on Saturday. Depends how fast I get the stats together.

Awesome Badasses erupt for 14 runs with two outs

BOSTON (AP) – With two outs in the top of the second inning, the Awesome Badasses erupted for 15 straight hits and 14 runs off El Toro as they quickly mercy ruled the Sally Cunts 16-0 at Bill Belichick Stadium.

Mark McGwire hit his 5th homerun of the season, tying him with Mike Schmidt for most in the league. John Tudor gave up no hit and no runs in two innings of work.
The blowout puts the Awesome Badasses in first place with a 3-0 reocord. The Sally Cunts drop to 1-2 and in a 3 way tie for second place in the Gantry League.

Sally Cunt owner Mike D said, "Jesus. Watching these past two games is one of the most frustrating things ever.  Why do our infielders run away from the ball?  Seriously, worst fielding team ever."

[Darky]

Fighting Artichokes quickly dismantle Rebel Alliance

MADISON (AP) Charlie Lisk, a season ticket holder, decided to quickly buy some burgers during the top half of the first inning. By the time he came back about 5 minutes later, his home town team Rebel Alliance were down 11-0 in the first inning.

Roger Clemens gave up 10 straight hits before recording an out to the Fighting Artichokes. "My stuff was off" said the Rocket.

Tom Burnansky had 5 RBI's and a homerun with a beautiful arc over the center field wall.

The Fighting Artichokes (2-1) move into second place in the DoveRBI League while the Rebel Alliance fall to 0-3 and into last place in the DoveRBI league.

2nd request for Owners name next to team name

[Mike D.]

Sally Cunts were no hit.  So bad.  So, so bad.

[Mike D.]

Sally Cunts would like to switch up Joyner and Lopes in the batting order for the next game.  Let's shake things up a bit.

Reggie Jackson leads the OC to first victory

SAN LUIS OBISPO (AP) – Reggie Jackson hit two homeruns with 5 RBI's and the OC of the Central Coast (1-2) got some quality pitching as TBG's team captures their first win over the Fighting Cutlers.

The Fighting Cutlers (0-3) squandered numerous opportunities at the plate as they left 11 men on base and were .100 with runners in scoring position.  Much of the credit should be attributed to Key and Sutclf. Key picked up the win and Sutclf pitched the last five innings as they both pitched out of some tough jams.

A jubilant sell out crowd of 58,000 at Central Coast Park erupted in cheers after Reggie hit his second blast of the day which skyrocketed out of the park and in to the beautiful Pacific ocean.

Ultimate 7, owner/GM of the Fighting Cutlers, was not available for comment after guaranteeing victory "The Cutlers will get their first win this week, book it".

Chocolate Rain storms through Unholy Legions

DEE NEE (AP) – Tony Armas and Tom Brookens each hit a pair of homeruns to lead the Chocolate Rain (3-0) 12-2 over the Unholy Legions in a six inning mercy rule game.

Blyvn pitched six strong innings and gave up one earned run and scattered 8 hits as he dominated a potent Unholy Legions line-up.
Sutton got rocked in the 3rd and 4th inning by giving up 8 runs in those two innings. The Unholy Legions of Doom (1-2) were unable to recover as they really never threatened the Chocolate Rain at any point after the first inning.

The Chocolate Rain (3-0) move into a first place tie with the Galactic Empire. Both teams will square off in a first place DoveRBI league battle in week 4.

In case it hasn't come up by now, our stadium is officially named "Ty Cobb's Flagrant Racism Stadium"

Galactic Empire hold on for narrow victory

ARKANSAS (AP) - The Empire held off a last inning Pabst Blue Ribbons comeback in the ninth to move to 3-0 and in a two way tie for first place with the Chocolate Rain in the DoveRBI league.

After jumping out to a 10-3 lead with Danny Cox cruising the whole way, the Pabst Blue Ribbons (1-2) woke up in the seventh and reduced the Empire lead to 10-7. After a scoreless 8th, the Empire scored a crucial run that would turn out to be the difference in front of 82,000 wild spectators at Razorback Stadium.

Alan Trammel (5/6, 2B (2) 4 R) hit a solo homerun in the top of the 9th to give the Empire a 11-7 lead going into the bottom of the 9th.
Calvin Schiraldi came in the ninth to slam the door, but after giving up 3 consecutive homeruns to Gibson, Canseco, and DwEvans with one out, the momentum shifted.
After a trip to the mound by manager Darky, Shiraldi then got Gedman and Gagne out to earn the save.

" Our main goal today was obviously to win every inning and eventually the game, but we had to blank Pedriq...and we did. The standards and expectations are extremetly high here in our program, and we expect to win every time we step on the diamond. One pitch at a time, one out at a time, one inning at a time, and one game at a time. That's our philosophy. We play and focus in the now as to control the Force in our favor" said Darky in a very matter of fact fashion.

Dont let the goofey moniker fool you, theres much fight in these artichokes.
