Incredible WildCard round! Wow!

[Darky]

Great fucking games.

I enjoyed the Zoom call. 

next time Darky should get on the Zoom call since we were all drowning him out. 

I can do that! I've heard of Zoom, but don't have the app or program. Not sure if I want to be distracted from my in-game commentary and in-depth and organized pregame show

Just click on a link and you're in zoom.  You don't need to download shit.

Breaking news....

Swinging Dicks considering a protest. 

Also....FUCK STEVE GARVEY

[ryno]

Special assistant to the Dicks, former chicago cubs GM Dallas Green is filing paperwork to protest the beefy victory. A request to (kill) flip Don Sutton with lee arthur smith was ignored by shady commish Darky.

When asked for a comment, Green said "we knew all along that Sutton didnt have his good stuff this week.  We also knew the empire feared a playoff matchup with the dicks.   We will have the protest filed and hopefully the RBI tribunal will see things our way.  We are requesting a replay from when sutton entered the game. We are DEMANDING that steve garvey is kicked in the balls."

Ryno requested to change his RP rotation. I did on one ROM, but when I fixed the ROM to get all the SP right, which was on a new ROM - the one with the SP#2, I forgot to switch Ryno's BP. Basically, the SP #2 Rom didn't have Clemens starting since he was a #1 and he was starting on the rom with SP#1. So when I went to the SP #2 ROM, I switched Clemens into the #1, but forgot to switch his RP. I noticed during the game, but by then, it was too late. Lord Vader will think of a make-up call to aid Ryno's sorrow. Perhaps some snus will come his way again! Ryno put in a protest, but Darth Vader immediately zapped it.

Okay, the games from the WildCard round! The first game doesn't start from the beginning since I forgot to record, so it's a few batters that went by in the top of the first. Watch it on Twitch to see that first inning.

Oh my god---- an admission of guilt!!!!

[Darky]

Oh my god---- an admission of guilt!!!!

Yeah man, I'm really sorry. My daughter left like 10 minutes before pregame, so I was in a rush to fix everything and wasn't meticulous. Embarrassing on my part and I feel bad. Vader didn't want to hear it from me and fortunately I am still alive for my mistake. In the end though, LSmith had the lead in the 9th and a non-tag that would have tied the game ... so maybe ya'll would have just lost in the 9th anyways with Sutton blowing the lead. I'll flow you some snus at a random time - the kind you like best.

[ryno]

The man blames his daughter!!!!   This is a travesty!!!!!

Dicks Lives Matter will be protesting at RBI stadium!!

[Shooty]

Sutton shit the bed.

[Darky]

Beef, I assume you'll want Soto as your game 1 starter for the LDS Playoffs? Ultimate is going with Niekro.

Nomaaa, you'll have until 2pm Dee Nee time to get in your game 1 starter and any lineup changes. Failure to do so will result in the higher ERA pitcher starting.

Just to clarify, games 1 and 2 will run consecutively for both teams. So after the Montreal-Blue Foots 2 games, the same will happen for the U7-Sides of Beef game.


Game 1, Thursday Aug.13, 3:30 PM Dee Nee time
#4 Montreal Exposé at #5 Blue Foot Boobies
#7 Sides of Beef at #3 U7
Game 2, Thursday, Aug. 13, 3:55 PM
#4 Montreal Exposé at #5 Blue Foot Boobies
#7 Sides of Beef at #3 U7


Game 3, Friday Aug. 14, 4 PM Dee Nee Time
#5 Blue Foot Boobies at #4 Montreal Exposé
#3 U7 at #7 Sides of Beef

Game 4, Friday Aug. 14, 4:25 PM Dee Nee Time
#5 Blue Foot Boobies at #4 Montreal Exposé
#3 U7 at #7 Sides of Beef

Game 5 (if necessary) Saturday, Aug. 15, 5 PM Dee Nee Time
#4 Montreal Exposé at #5 Blue Foot Boobies
#7 Sides of Beef at #3 U7

Sutton shit the bed.

He did it all season long.  I should have made a change weeks ago.

Please unpack.  Not sure what you're saying here.

My bad. I need to stick to the schedule I posted. Basically, you'll play game 1 against Nomaaa, then Ultimate and Beef will play game 1. After those two games, you'll play game 2 against Nomaaa, and then Ultimate and Beef play game 2. So games 1 and 2 for the LDS 5-game series round will take place on the same day, within the same hour. Look at the schedule a bit closer so there are no assumptions that it is just one game a day for your team or any other playoff team. The same follows on Friday.

Tomorrow's games follow in this exact order.


Game 1, Thursday Aug.13, 3:30 PM Dee Nee time
#4 Montreal Exposé at #5 Blue Foot Boobies
#7 Sides of Beef at #3 U7

Game 2, Thursday, Aug. 13, 3:55 PM
#4 Montreal Exposé at #5 Blue Foot Boobies
#7 Sides of Beef at #3 U7

Yes, Soto's my guy.

[ultimate7]

Sorry I missed the home/road decision.  I would prefer to be the Home team

Can't bet against a guy with MARIO FUCKING SOTO and the hit machine that is Richard "Dickie" Thon.
