5.  Poopybutts  vs
2.  Generalisimos

GAME 1

Both teams came out swinging putting up 15 runs each thru the first 3 innings.  However, the Generalisimos did not keep pace after that putting up 0 in the fourth.  The Poopybutts held tight to their guns and had 35 runs by the 6th inning.  Although, J.Rice put up 2 HRs and 5 RBIs in the last 2 innings, it wasn't enough.
Poopybutts take game one, 35-21 in 6 innings.

Poopybutts:
CDavis; 4/6, 3HR,  9 RBI
Jackson; 7/7, 3HR, 2B, 6 RBI
Hrbek; 6/7, 3HR, 5 RBI

Generalisimos:
Mtngly; 4/5, 2HR, 4 RBI
Cansco; 5/5, 2HR, 4 RBI
Morris; 4/4, 3B, 2B

GAME 2

The Generalisimos come back pissed off in Game 2 and put up 11 runs in the first and 9 runs in the second inning.  That would be enough to put away the Poopybutts 10-20 in two innings.

Poopybutts:
Tramml; 1/2, HR, 2RBI
Lindmn; 2/2, 2HR, 6 RBI
Jackson/Hrbek/Sntago; combined 5/5, 5 singles

Generalisimos:
Joyner; 3/3, GS, 2B, 5 RBI
Schfld; 3/3, HR, 2 RBI
Morris; 3/3, HR, 2B, 4 RBI

GAME 3

Coming out of the top of the 3rd the poopybutts had gathered a 11-0 lead.  With their back against the wall early, the generalisimos snap out of their slump by putting up 14 runs in the bottom of the 3rd.  Going into the bottom of the 9 inning the Generalisimos found themself down 33-31 with Joyner, Canseco, Rice due up.  However, they can only muster 1 run and lose the game (and the series) 33-32.

Poopybutts:
Jackson; 7/8, 3HR, 2B, 5 RBI
Hrbek; 6/8, 3HR, 2 2B, 10 RBI
Garner; 5/8, 2HR, 2B, 6 RBI

Generalisimos:
K.Bass; 6/8, 2HR, 2B, 5 RBI
Joyner; 5/8, 2HR, 5 RBI
Cansco; 5/8, 3HR, 5 RBI

So, the #2 seed Generalisimos take a modest 3rd place.  The Poopybutts will have their work cut out for them as they will have to beat the #8 seed One-Nut-Kruks in 2 straight best-of-three series.

Series MVP:  Jackson; 16/17, 6HR, 2 2B, 11 RBI
Hrbek also had an outstanding series; 14/17, 6 HR, 15 RBI

Series Goat:  Mattingly probable fell a little short.  After being one of the top performers during the regular season, he only bats .563 in the series loss.

Don't Blame:  Morris; 11/13, 2HR, 3 2B, 3B, 8 RBI from the 8-spot in the series loss.

8.  One-Nut Kruks  vs
5.  Poppybutts

GAME 1

Well, not much to say about this one.
Poopybutts bat .917 with 6 home runs in the first inning.
One-Nuts get NO-HIT.  Yep, the first No-Hitter of the season/tourney.  Gaetti/Brooken/Dawson go 3-up & 3-down in the top of the first and Poopybutts take full advantage ending it 0-10 in the first inning.

One-Nut Kruks:
0/3

Poopybutts:
Tramml; 2/2, HR, 2B, 3 RBI
Jackson; 2/2, 2HR, 2 RBI
CDavis, Hrbek, & Lindmn add a home run each.

GAME 2

In game 2 the Poopybutts were a Tramml home run away from ending the second straight game in the first inning, but he pops up with the bases loaded.  Instead this game ends up going back and forth in lead changes all the way thru 9 innings.
One-Nuts get a big top of the ninth and the Poopybutts cannot come back.
One-Nuts take game two with a 37-29 win.

One-Nut Kruks:
Gaetti; 6/8, 2HR, 2B, 7 RBI
Dawson; 6/8, 3HR, 5 RBI
Whitkr; 7/8, HR, 2B, 4 RBI

Poopybutts:
CDavis; 6/8, 4HR, 2B, 9 RBI
Hrbek; 6/7, 3HR, 3 RBI
Sntago; 5/7, 2 3B, 2 2B, 4 RBI

GAME 3

Poopybutts and One-Nutts went right back to their game 1 form.
As in the first game, the One-Nutts get only 3 abs in the first inning as Dawson grounds into a dp.
AND just like the first game, the Poopybutts take full advantage and put up 10 runs in the bottom (via a Trammel 3-run walk-off).  It should be noted that the Poopybutts did all this with 1.000 batting average.  Who knows how many more runs they could have put up?

One-Nuts:
Gaetti; 0/1
Brookn; 1/1, single
Dawson; 0/1 (dp)

Poopybutts:
Tramml; 2/2, HR, 2B, 2 RBI
Sntago; 1/1, HR, 3 RBI
Rest of team; 7/7, 2 2B, 5 RBI


Series MVP:  CDavis; 9/11, 5HR, 2 2B, 12 RBI
Hrbek also had a great series going 8/9 with 4 homers

The Goat:  Brenly; .375 batting average with 0 home runs and only 1 RBI
I guess the 1-3 batters in games 1 & 3 are "goat" worthy as well.


Alright, so it all comes down to the next best of 3 series for all the marbles.

POOPYBUTTS!!!!!!!!

[Stock]

Sorry guys.

The Tourney is over, but have not had time to do the write-up yet.

Alright, time to wrap this up.

The Final Series was Poopybutts vs One-Nut Kruks. 
The Poopybutts would have to beat the One-Nuts in 2 straight 3-game series to win the tourney.

GAME 1

The Poopybutts put up 6 home runs (incl a GS), and 2 triples in five innings.  The One-Nut Kruks put up 8 home runs (but with not nearly as many men on base.
The Poopybutts take game one 26-15 in 5 innins.

GAME 2

Poopybutts stay hot early with Sntago hitting a GS in the first inning and McGee hitting a GS in the 2nd inning.  One-Nuts did a good job not trailing too far behind with Gaetti hitting home runs in his first two abs and Brookn adding a GS of his own in the 4th inning.  However, the butts were just too much to handle as they just consistently put up at least 3 runs every inning and took game two 22-12 in 5 innings.

The Poopybutts are the world champions of the 2006 Stock Fantasy season.  Despite the Butts only finishing 5th place in the regular season, Jackson and the rest of the crew went crazy in the tournament going 13-6.  It's hard to stop a team that wins more than 2/3 of there game in the playoffs.
Congratulations to the Butts.

The second place One-Nut Kruks have nothing to feel bad about.  They barely squeaked in with the last seed in the tournament, and made it all the way to the Finals Bracket.


Series MVP:  I'm going to give this to Lindmn.  He batted 1.000 in the final series with 3 HRs and 7 RBI. 
CDavis and Sntago also kicked ass in the final series combining for a .737 BA, 5 HR and 19 RBI.
In the tournament, the Poopybutts had 4 players batting over .700.
Same said players combined for 94 home runs and 228 RBI in 19 games.

Thanks for the work Stock.  When's the next one?  :-)

[WeatherMatt]

Great season Stock, and huge congrats to Gantry and the champion Poopybutts.

I know second place is nothing to be ashamed of, but..Damn! That damn close!

[Stock]

Thanks for the work Stock.  When's the next one?  :-)

Let's plan on starting the 2007 season after football season.
This was much more work than I anticipated and need a little bit of a break.

It will be a little different in the 2007 season.  Want to use the custom ROM players from the 20th century cart I brought to the Chicago/Phoenix dee-nee fests.

I will support up to 13 teams (if there is enough interest).
Those with teams in the 2006 Stock Fantasy League will have first dibs at a team, but let me know now if you will be interested.
