RBI Manifesto

[BeeJay]

My RBI Manifesto is rather simple

Anything goes.

[TempoGL]

your lack of morality is highly disturbing

[Nacho]

This RBI libertarianism is leading to moral depravity and selfish hedonism amoungst our RBI nation.  We must expel them from our midst.

[Shooty]

BUMP

[Darky]

RBI rules...the end.

I'd petitioned Dirt and I believe Beales as well to hold a 1 starting pitcher tourney.  I was countered with the reasoning of there being too many tired arms late in the game and whoever could hit beach balls the best would win.  I disagree completely.

1 SP games require great craftiness to preserve pitch counts and  to "win the arms race" as i call it.  You have to throw strikes in 1 SP games, but still do so rather judiciously.  

Inexplicably, its not out of the question to witness a reliever well past his endurance count, roll thru a couple innings without surrendering a hit.  Probation becomes key in that situation to test your luck and managing skills.  

And Tim Raines...there's no escaping his wrath when facing off vs NL.  Ive lost countless games where the vaunted NL 2-6 hitter were held in check all game only to have Raines account for all their runs and prove to be the difference.

Hate that fucking asshole.

Easily my favorite player in RBI.  A buddy and I use to play all-star games frequently - he was always AL and I was always NL, and Raines' combination of power and speed was simply awesome.

Fuck Gary Pettis

[BDawk]

How about a Haiku maifesto

RBI is cool
Whitaker sucks my white ass
I like Kirk Gibson


Yup, that about sums it up.

WTF are you talking about?  When did you do petition me, son?

[TbT]

Ive inquired more than once.  You fear the 1 SP game!

[JoeDirt]

Most of my RBI life has been with the 1 SP rule...

[TbT]

Lets make it happen then!  I've got formulas and brackets and and all sorts of shit...we could make it a grand weekend of RBI for lots of money and only 1 SP at each players disposal.

Hell, we just need 10 participants and 2 days.

[Gantry]

I'm down for any tourney in curve, always fun.  Despite playing less than 50 curve games in my life, I seem to do quite well at it....

[JoeDirt]

I prefer the 2 SP rule, however.  I also do think that more hitting skill is required with 2 SP.

Yes, you're probably the world leader in mixed RBI skills (AG, straight, drinking, naked...).

[Gantry]

I definitely prefer 2 SPs though, since I can't hit for shit in curve.

I've never been a world leader at anything, thanks!

[JoeDirt]

1 SP would be way easier for you, then.  Just take take take and then hitting gets way easier.

[Gantry]

But at the same time I can't rely on pitching to keep me in it, so I guess it goes both ways...
