FRBI V Divisional Playoffs

[Darky]

without the OC in the playoff mix this year, the tv ratings will drop.

Not according to the numbers I'm looking at. The emergence of the Empire the past two seasons and the emergence of the Sally Cunts has compensated, but we have lost some viewers who have emotional ties with the OC cause of your back to back championships in seasons 2 and 3. You're kinda like the America's team of the FRBI league.

great reward for the thousands of artichoke fans who made the 2 plus hour trek to SD.

They have been loyal all year and now we have some Artichoke fever going on across the nation.


Anyways, game two will begin 4:30 dee nee time.

[BeefMaster]

You know, it's hard to beat a team four times in a row.

Although that is exactly what my team plans to do in order to win this series.

[Darky]

ROM attached and game 2 is in the books.

The Artichokes at Unholy Legions will be youtube'd. The BadAss-Cutler game won't because my camera interrupted me during the middle of the game and told my that I have no memory space on my memory stick. No worries, still can watch the game on the virtual nes.

Waiting a bit so I don't spoil.

Spolier alert.......

If it werent for the bop in the 6th inning(mcgee on 3rd and 1 out) this game ends up with the artichoke blowing out the ULD.  Bop lead to 4 runs.  The Artichoke faithful had a pleasant drive back to dodge.  Up 2-0 and headed home.  

Shoddy baserunning cost the Artichokes at least 1 run and 3-4 baseruners.  Fuck it, lets take game 3 and then bring out the brooms.

Pendlton cranked out the tying homer in the 9th and the another in the 10th to put that bitch out of reach.

Fuck Bedrosian. And getting nailed at home.

What?  Did I watch the wrong game or did you?

[Darky]

Ultimate, did you upload the new rom? The rom from yesterday has been changed because of the SP's...

[ultimate7]

Yes, I used the new ROM, I thought.  I never saw Bedrosian thrown out at the plate

[ultimate7]

Fuck never mind, I thought he said Bedrosian was nailed at home.  I saw the right game.

Fighting Artichokes rally late for win, take 2-0 advantage heading back home

SIOUX FALLS (AP) - On a cloudy and cold day at Sioux Falls Park, the visiting Fighting Artichokes overcame a 9-4 deficit in the 7th inning and managed to even the contest up and hold the number one offense scoreless in the ninth to send game two into extra innings.

With two outs in the top of the tenth inning, JuFranco singled to spark a 5 run rally to give the Artichokes a 14-9 lead. J.Reardn retired the top of the explosive Unholy Legion line-up in order in the bottom of the 10th to seal the win.

T.Pendltn and T.Brnsky each hit a pair of shots and DaEvans along with JuFranco went 4-6 to lead the Fighting Artichokes on offense. The Fighting Artichokes got superb pitching from their starters, and lights out pitching from their bullpen. Herndez and Reardn allowed a combined no runs and only one hit in their short relief appearance of three innings.

The Unholy Legions bullpen allowed 7 runs and squandered a great effort by both Reshl and Sutton who only gave up a combined 4 runs in their 7 innings of sharp work. The real problem was the offense who disappeared after the sixth inning.

The Fighting Artichokes outscored the Unholy Legions of Doom 10-0 in innings 7 through 10. The highly touted Unholy Legion offense were shut down by the FRBI league's number two team in pitching. The cliche "good pitching beats good hitting" was reality on this cold and cloudy day at Sioux Falls Park.

"Its not the size of the artichoke in the fight, its the size of the fight in the artichoke!" said a jubilant TBT after his improbable victory that now has his team two wins away with a date with the Galactic Empire.

The 7 game series will now move over to Forte Dodge where Artichoke fever has engulfed the city.

Fighting Artichokes lead series 2-0

Fighting Cutlers pull away late, even series up at 1-1

CHICAGO (AP) - The Fighting Cutlers used an 6 run eighth to pull away from the Awesome BadAsses 12-5 in a pitchers duel at Soldier Field.

The Cutlers scored 3 runs in the sixth off back-to-back-to-back home runs from Baylor, Nokes, and DCincs to take a 6-5 lead and used great pitching from Hurst and Dayley down the stretch to blank the BadAsses the rest of the way.

Bedrsn, who came in to the bottom 8th inning out of the bullpen, was rocked for 6 runs on 6 hits in his disaster inning of relief. The 12-5 deficit left the BadAsses flat in the ninth as they failed to stage any kind of comeback.
"Fuck Bedrosian. And getting nailed at home." said an enraged AlecTrevylan in a state of confusion. He was reminded by an AP reporter that he was actually on the road to which he did not share any comments regarding that.

Krukow allowed only 4 runs in his 4 1/3 innings of quality work. Hurst and Dalyley gave up no earned runs and only 4 hits in their 4 2/3 innings of brilliant pitching.
DCincs and Baylor each hit a pair of awe inspiring shots to the tune of 68,000 screaming fans at Soldier Field who chanted their usual "85 BEARS...85 BEARS" after a home run by their beloved Cutlers.

The series will now shift over to Oklahoma City at Doc Ellis Magical Mushroom Park where the Cutlers are 0-2 this year from the regular season.

Series tied 1-1

I meant nailed at home plate -_-

[Darky]

I meant nailed at home plate -_-

He never batted, if you mean my 85 year old transvestite girlfriend/boyfriend nailed him with a kong dong dildo at home, then yes.

[AlecTrevylan006]

Thus the period. Two different statements

1.) I hate Bedrosian
2.) I hate runnerse getting gunned down at the plate, which happened to me

[BeefMaster]

Okay, just need to win four out of five now.  Nobody panic.

[Gantry]

Don't see it happening Beefy...

[Mike D.]

I think you should panic and make a bunch of lineup changes.

[Darky]

Game 3 will take place on Sunday. I am not home until then because the team I play for is 2 hours away and I am going to stay here until Sunday. Had a game today and two more on Saturday in Stockholm, plus practice tomorrow and Friday.

I plan to finish the divisional playoffs next week, then there will be a week break before the Championship Series because I am going to Prague with the national team to play in some international tourney for a week. If there is time, then maybe I can get in games 1 and 2...but that depends how fast the other games go and how much time I have to go all out.

TBT is getting cocky...I recieved no less than 3 mails from him yesterday in which he specifically told me what he thinks the Artichokes are going to do to the Empire...
