Smues

Who wouldn't vote for that? But seriously, I haven't had any problems with her since she got elected shortly after I moved here. I'd be fine with her as VP, but I really doubt McCain wins. In which case I get to keep her as governor, so works for me.

It is hard for me to cheer for Cubs, but Sandberg went to my highschool so I always liked him.

And with 1 month left Francoeur is on place to take 2nd all to himself. Sad.

Devon White over Andruw Jones of Curacao? Edit: nevermind. Actually bothered to look up Curacao and saw it's part of the Netherlands. Knowledge rules!

From Wikipedia: Between $950,000 and not having herpes I'd probably choose not having herpes, but that's still a nice chunk of cash. I also hope that some video of his singing turns up on youtube.

Weak sauce, I failed to get my 5 splits.

1 split left!

Damn, I was hoping we had some wierd rules that let you lose runs. Would make it more interesting.

Huzzah 3 splits down, two to go. So did they get penalized 9 runs in the 8th?

Didn't Lima also give his wife herpes? Or was that a girlfriend or something? "16. Joel Pineiro, 2006 - Seattle Mariners 70 (165 2/3)" Man he looked so promising in his early years in Seattle too. I guess he just didn't pan out.

Yeah it is such a waste of time and money. We recently picked up a client that has us testing 100% of their payroll checks, at various locations throughout the state, each month. We suggested just doing a sample, but no they want 100%. Which means they're paying us to send someone to Juneau once a month, as well as various places in town. Thank god the people who make general auditing standards took a stats class and realize that testing 100% of things doesn't pass the cost/benefit test.

Love the dog.

Boo an Al comment made me think there had been more games. I want my next series split!

But did it get Fred McGriff's recommendation? Doubtful. And I doubt it produced back to back to back AAU titles.

Fear the allmighty auditors! But seriously that sucks. I'm glad I don't deal with that kind of bullshit. You have to mess with every invoice for this job? Yuck, fuck 100% sample size. Statistical sampling is the way.

Two series splits down, three to go!

Wooo one series split down, 4 to go!

And how about worst pitcher seasons at the plate? Obviously you can't use the criteria of enough qualifying at bats, but it could still be fun.

And sadly I have to point out that Jeff Francoeur is currently on pace to tie for 4th on this list, and I think he does qualify with his number of at bats.

Wasn't Derek Bell the operation shutdown guy? Boy if a 66 OPS+ was him giving his all, I really would hate to see him 'shut it down.'

Sounds good to me. Will this simulation have injuries or anything of the like to worry about? What about fatigue?

With a historically bad contract. The fact that it's short helps it not be the worst of all time by any stretch of the imagination, but I would imagine it has NO competition for worst short contract of all time. $18 million a year, even if he hadn't fallen apart is way too much. Scott Boras is evil.

With my last pick I'll take Lee Guetterman.

You've got one more pick to make. Relief pitchers only is a wierd round rule, but whatever.

Actually Al it's Smues' turn, but hey who is counting? The not Bored's team takes Tom Gordon. Flash, ahhhhhhhhh. Savior of the universe.
