Official Fantasy RBI Week 7 Thread

[Darky]

What no games on a friday? Damn. Oh well. I have only been waiting since noon my time. But it's cool, I like watching the games on the week seven rom and replaying weeks 1-6 and the other games that have not been played yet on week 7. My new lineup looks good. And Reggie has gone on a terror in those practice games or unofficial games.

Frank Tanana All-Stars Topple The Poopydicks, 21-13

DEE-NEE CITY - Powered by a ten-run eighth inning, The Frank Tanana All-Stars handed The Poopydicks a 21-13 defeat on Tuesday night at Tengen Stadium, giving the Doverbi Division leaders their second consecutive loss after a 5-0 start.

Mark McGwire homered twice and drove in five to pace The Frank Tanana All-Stars (3-4), while Gary Carter also drove in five. Andre Dawson's two home runs and five RBI were not enough for The Poopydicks (5-2) to overcome some terrible defense and another poor outing by their bullpen.

Despite remaining on top of their division at the midway point of the season, some Poopydicks fans in attendance on Tuesday night were not pleased.

"This season is fucking over - there's no way that this group of spineless pussies can ever recover," said Matt Bainesby, a Poopydicks fan attending the game with his child and a 24-pack of Sportz. "I mean, Kevin Mitchell takes a ball off his face, so he runs off the motherfucking field like the bitch and makes the god damned right fielder pick up the ball? What a piece of shit. This is the biggest choke job I've seen since January. What a bunch of cock gobbling cum dumpsters."

Bainesby then flashed a sideways "peace" sign before passing out into the beer fountain that flows past the center field seats at Tengen Stadium. He was later pulled out by Tengen Stadium security and pronounced to be "fucking blitzed".

Wow, we've lost two in a row.  Getting knocked off the high horse.  Not nearly as upset as our awesome fans but not happy to say the least.  We'll get it back together, just a little bump in the road.

What happened to the PoopyDicks explosive offense? Brenly killed you guys.

Cox looked good, big daddy looked like his normal self.

I guess the PoopyDicks have yet to recover since The Empire demolished them.

Looks like the season is starting to pick up some drama with a lot of ball left.

In other news, Reggie Jackson and Will Clark hit 3 home runs apiece in an intra-squad game. Sandberg had three hits and he is very excited to get his first start.
Darth Vader's Empire vs Hitler's Nazis coming up soon. And another shitty day is in order for Nahco.

Cox was impressive in his debut with the All Stars.  gg me.

Vince Coleman sucks....

Blyleven sucks....

Coprophiliacs.....SUCK!

[Darky]

Coprophiliacs need a baserunning clinic. Always freeze on a line drive. Tough way to lose getting doubled up and killing the tying run. Corbett seemed nervous out there.
Great game with a lot of hitters choking in the clutch. I thought it was going to be a quicky with the Nimrods jumping out to a 7-0 lead, but the Coprops showed some heart. This game was good for the Empire and GDavis.

The Nimrods Nip The Coprophiliacs, 13-12

DEE-NEE CITY - Doug DeCinces' two-out double in the top of the ninth inning gave The Nimrods a dramatic 13-12 victory over The Coprophiliacs in a Gantry Division game played Friday afternoon at Tengen Stadium.

The Coprophiliacs (3-4) had a chance to tie or win in the bottom of the ninth, after Dave Bergman doubled with one out. But Scott Garrelts was able to get Keith Hernandez to line out to short and double up Bergman for the game-saving double play for The Nimrods (3-4).

"I thought that we were running slow for most of the game, but we seemed to pick up at the end," said Nimrods manager Ultimate7 after the game. "There were a lot of guests watching the game in the stands, so that might have been slowing us down somehow."

i cant wait

[Darky]

omg....Tommy Herr went deep.......twice.

What a great game that went into extra innings.

[TbT]

The OC had a hard-on to trade for gaetti recently, and i told em to shove it.  he responds with a 4-4 game. 

perhaps the OC could show some interest in Coleman to get his ass in gear for us as well.

Hip Young Popes Hold Off Attarack in Extra Innings, 21-20

DEE-NEE CITY - Darryl Strawberry's three-run home run in the top of the tenth inning proved to be the difference as The Hip Young Popes pulled out a 21-20 victory over Attarack in a Doverbi Division game played Sunday night at Tengen Stadium.

Attarack (3-4) closed to within one run in the bottom of the tenth, and had Tom Herr on second as the potential tying run with two outs before Todd Worrell was able to get Willie Randolph to ground out to preserve the win for The Hip Young Popes (3-4).

Attarack manager Attezabol, acting solo since the unexplained absence of his co-owner Racktacular, seemed unconcerned and distracted after the game.

"When Tom Herr played no shot to Baylor in the third over, I thought we had a chance, but when Randolph went not out to Worrell's spinner, it was all for naught," Attezabol said after the game. "Wait, is this India? Where are the wickets? Where am I? Oh well, at least I had tea and ladyfingers. And oh yeah, death to America."

Strawberry and Bill Madlock each homered twice for The Hip Young Popes, while Baylor led all players with six RBI. Tim Laudner homered and drove in five in defeat.

Brilliant recap by Fighton once again.
Damn, Don Baylor went Bezerk.

Guess whose coming to town Nacho....

The Empire @ CommieHitlers game is done. Video is attached.

[Nacho]

That was a much closer game that would be expected after watching the first inning.

Regardless, I got fucking pwned.  My life's a joke.

[ryno]

abandoning my team was the best move the fantasy RBI league has ever seen.

                                                              Post Game Conference

Despite The Empire's victory over the CommieHitlers, today's win was totally unacceptable and not indicative of Empire style baseball. Today's weak victory was reminiscent of the Battle of Hoth. We lacked the killer instinct to put away the CommieHitlers and lay the mercy rule on them.
The Empire was fully prepared thanks to our advanced scouting as we came out ready to play in the first inning and demonstrated our power and skill to the Fantasy League. However, I noticed some very disturbing events that took place after the first inning. This type of action will not be tolerated in our program. Changes will be imminent. This kind of performance will not cut it against rebel forces GDavis, our nemesis.

Q: Lord Darkside, Do you consider the trade a success? Reggie Jackson went 4-6 and Will Clark went 1-5 and they combined for one RBI. Also, how would you assess Ryne Sandberg's 1-5 performance in his first start?

A: Reggie and Will fit perfectly with The Empire. They have enormous expectations on them. I strongly feel that they will soon pay huge dividends as they get more at bats and get comfortable with their transition.
As far as Sandberg is concerned, he will not start next game. He was clearly distracted with the presence of his number one stalker in the stands, Ryno. I do not accept players having their heads in the stands for the majority of the game. Walling will start in his place next game.

Q: You just mentioned that changes are imminent, can you go into detail? Are you going to make more trades?

A: You will address me as Lord Vader. I am a Dark Lord of the Sith. In answer to your question, no comment.

Q:  You were seen in the dugout in the 8th inning by using the dark side of the Force to choke nomaa, stopping only when Imperial leader Grand Moff Tarkin intervened. Something out of character on your part during game time. There are also rumors that you lashed out at nomaa after the game in the clubhouse in front of the players as well as destroying his homework with you lightsaber. Can you expand on that?

A: After the first inning, I sensed a disturbance in the Force. I elected to pay a visit to the clubhouse to see what was going on. To my dismay, during the 8th inning coach nomaa was speaking on his cell phone to high school friends of a 3 keg party to celebrate the victory when the game was still very tight. The Darkside will not tolerate such actions. He will be disciplined further and his punishment is pending on what my master says. He does not know the power of the Darkside.

Q: How would you respond to an anonymous prediction that The Empire will be defeated by Ewoks?

A: I am strong with the Force. I am trained in the ways of the Force. Things are going perfectly according to our plans. I find your lack of faith disturbing.
No further questions. May the Force bless our Galactic Empire.
