ALL DEE-NEE Team

[sucka free]

In the Rom's thread I suggested that we come up with a fun rom that contained teams that we would want to use when playing the RBI drinking game.  Teams that could make this rom could be the all-mustache team, all-tobacco team, all-criminal team, ect.  Also, this rom should definitly contain the All Dee-Nee team.  Forum members should write into this forum to pick a position they want to play.  I cut and pasted lips repsonse for an example.  Lips writes :

"sucka free, I played baseball as a kid and I frickin' sucked.  I rode the pines for half of every game (except when teammates were on vacation and I was allowed to play a full game - WOO HOO!!!!).  I would always get subbed in for the second worst player on our team, halfway through a game.  And what position would I play?  Right field.  Why?  Because 90% of the players were righties and no one would hit into right field.  Dah-Nah!!!!  I moved on and split time at shortstop for awhile.  Then came the pinnacle of my baseball career...my team was down by so many runs, I was thrown onto the mound to pitch a few.  Now, that was solid. So throw me in on the ALL DEE-NEE TEAM's bench.  And either sub me in for a right fielder or play me as a shortstop. "

Since this is Gantry's site, he is obvisously the final word on the starting lineup.  I'll keep a running tab on this thread on the progress.  As for me, I played catcher almost my entire baseball career that lasted through junior college.  I was more of a rob deer/ pete incavilia type hitter.  Great long ball but short on average.  I also like to drink alot, which is why, if selected to the starting lineup as a catcher, I should bat towards the bottom of the line up.

Can I play 2b? I'm left-handed, but that's been the position I've played.

[Vitb6]

SUCKA-  that is a fantastic idea!  I never saw your other thread.  I've been playing organized baseball since I was 4.  I never like to brag (ok maybe a little) but I was a pretty good player and batted 3rd every year.  I had a .300+ avg great speed and decent power and a defensive prowess in CF.  I'd compare myself to Tori Hunter or perhaps Andrew Jones.  They are good hitters, great defensive players, fast with moderate power.  So put me in at CF.  Where I am in the lineup is up to the coach.  

BTW-  I played with Lips in little league.  I played against him and was never on his team.  I didn't know you actually pitched Lipitz.  That's funny.

If this team ever gets created it would be the funniest thing ever!

[Vitb6]

I can't believe this hasn't been mentioned yet but what about an ALL DEE-NEE TEAM?  I think this would be sweet.  Everyone could write in and describe what part of the team they want to be on.  For example, if you were a shortstop in highschool, ask to start at short.  Or if you pitched in little league as to be a pitcher.  Or if you have a huge fucking ego like me or the "T.O. of the forums" Vitb6, ask to play center and bat 4th.

I started laughing my ass off when I read this.  I wrote my previous message BEFORE I found the thread you were referring to.  And for the sheer fact that I actually wrote down I played CF and batted 3rd and you wrote kinda the same thing (without even knowing and without me reading you statement beforehand) was hilarious to me.  Although I'm not kidding about my other post and I probably could have written it with more of an ego-esque kick to it.  

[Gantry]

Dude I would suck on an all Dee-Nee team.  I'm right handed and have no power.  Perhaps I should be on the bench too for the cheap power boost....

I'm Joel Youngblood at best, Steve Lake at worst.  Actually, I'm better than lake...

Though he hasn't been visiting as often, Greg Pines definitely needs to be on the team.  He's a top5 poster and actually plays in the Minor Leagues (though I can't remember what team).  Hopefully he's lefty, but he's definitely our cleanup hitter.  Not sure what position he plays though...

[GDavis]

If I'm included on the team, you should know I play pretty much like GDavis from the original RBI, except without the power.

[Craig3410]

Is this him? If so, you can thank Google.

[Gantry]

That would be him, we'll put him at cleanup and 1B...

[sucka free]

team is starting to shape up.  We have two 1b so Gantry needs to decide who starts, Pines or Davis.  We need to recruit some middle infielders and pitchers.  Lips, is currently our ace on the staff because he is the only one  with pitching experience.

[nightwulf]

I was never very good at baseball. *grumble* I sooo wanted to be a good second baseman tho.  

Nightwulf

[sucka free]

NIghtwolf, is definitly the starting second baseman.  Currently, the only person to mention SS was lips, so our double play combo is lips and nightwolf.  Holy shit!

[Lips]

We're in for worlds of trouble if I'm our ace.
Our team name will quickly change to the ALL DAH NAH TEAM!!!!

[sucka free]

You are all we got lips...just try to get the ball over the plate and let the defense work

[Craig3410]

Actually, best thing to do about me it just wait for last to put in me, and just throw me into whatever position's left. That's what they usually did with me on my high school teams...  

[guy49]

Hey Guys, I know I haven't been posting in a while, but I have been keeping tabs and would love to be on the dee-nee team.  I played a little - little league ball and played some serious whiffle ball in my day also.  I don't do anything well, but have a little speed.  Take it easy and Go Brewers!

[GPines]

I have not posted in awhile, I stumbled across this post and I just wanted to let you know I bat right handed and I am a catcher.  

[Gantry]

Welcome back Greg, good to have you!  Your sig says you have no belts, but didn't you just win the overall belt?  Though I saw taht on your webpage...

Any OF slot is ok with me.  I played mostly OF in little league shifting around from LF/CF/RF.

[vgp100]

I played 3B, 2B and outfield in my day. I've bulked up quite a bit since high school. I used to be a singles hitter. Now I'm ready for the meat of the order.
Put me in, coach!...

[sucka free]

Ugggg!  Gpines is a catcher!?  Damn, looks like that bumps me out of the starting spot considering he plays pro ball.  Oh well, luckily for me I'm not like Piazza and I can play another position.  I've got good hands, a cannon for an arm, and big balls so that quailfies me to play third.  I can also play outfield.  Gantry, I'll put me at the hotcorner for now.
