GG, I don't care about anything but thankfully knowing that you're okay after what I saw on the news in your area! You're definitely more important than any -97 I may accrue! (Well, if accrue is the right word for negative points! lol)
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

Well yeah, I totally wanted the -100 at that point! That's why I included the part (image) where it actually showed the -100. I had to settle for a measly -97, tho.  In any event... I was worried that something bad could have happened to you, and that was my priority... not my score.... so it's GREAT to see you! (and your making fun of me  )

Well, I really do appreciate your concern for me.  I guess I should've checked in sooner, as I did have time on the computer - just not as much. You're famous, by the way. I told my cousin and two friends about how someone in my group had taken Baltimore. So, you've got universal sympathy. P.S. G-o-o-o-o Yankees.

CS, happy belated 1st anniversary! Let's see, how can I put a Chicago spin on this? Everybody Needs Somebody To Love, so it's great that you two have found each other. It's already been a year that your lovely wife has made the commitment to Stand By [Her] Man, and I'm certain that you'll spend many more years together. When you Think about it, you've Got Everything [You] Need...almost - all that's left is clinching 1st in BBC. Sounds like you had a fun time in Sweet Home Chicago. Congrats, Soul Man! Players who we hope to do especially well...GG - VMart, Holliday, El Caballo, Willy, Kyle Lohse...  Doesn't everyone want their Willy to do well? And how are you keeping such a good record of all my fantasy picks? You must have a copy of the list for my private collection. I didn't get to thank you properly for the anniversary greetings. Thanks Gina! Time flies quickly, doesn't it? My one-year anniversary, you going to college... I didn't even realize that you graduated. Where are you going? What is your potential major? I'm telling you - you have the makings of the first female GM in baseball. Sorry to hear about Garner and Purpura, by the way. Garner has always seemed like a nice guy and in my opinion, they gave him a short leash - it was only a couple of years ago you guys made the World Series. And also... Yeah, I have a running list of your fantasy picks. Any new inductees?

I didn't get to thank you properly for the anniversary greetings. Thanks Gina! Time flies quickly, doesn't it? It certainly does! I'll confess I actually had to look up when you had posted about your wedding to confirm that it'd actually been a full year, before I made my message. It's amazing how quickly time goes by. Thanks for the comments about college - officially, I get to call myself "undeclared," because I really don't know what I definitely want to major in. I was told I don't have to choose until the end of my second year, so I'm hoping to immerse myself in a variety of subjects until then, so that I can decide. I'm interested in English, but I don't know if I'd want to make it into a career. I've also considered business, but I worry I wouldn't have the personality to 'make things happen' in that kind of profession. First female GM? After what happened to Purpura??  I've never fully understood the business aspect of baseball, and I'd probably make some pretty sorry decisions - I couldn't live with the knowledge that I'd ruined a baseball team. haha Purpura was actually booed when he was introduced during the ceremony for Bagwell's number retirement on Sunday. As for Garner, I agree it's hard to blame someone that got us to the WS so recently - but I am excited about seeing what Cecil Cooper has to offer.

Dunn not playing in Game 1 of doubleheader... Good thing I picked Bay then (7 pts in Game 1) Edit: Whew! I thought I jinxed myself when I noticed Dunn pinch hitting in the 9th

DB, what is your rank for the second half? You must be close to the top. I'm slowly falling, I'm at 740, but you're almost a hundred points ahead of me. Are you in the top 100?

I'm so glad I picked LA today.  What are you whining about? I have Penny (-11) in the draft game, the game in which I benched Francis' (37) complete freakin' game shutout!!  (who'da thunk it)

I'm number 266 for the second half - I was in the top 100 about a month ago, but I've slowly dropped since.
Overall, I'm currently ranked #89 and knock-on-wood, I hope I can improve from there. anyway, I don't get tired of congratulating you. I can't count how many times I've checked my team and get all excited with a 55 just to go and see DB's 75 a few secons later. I don't know if you'd share that kind of info, but I'd really like to see your 'scoring summary' for the season. looking at mine, I notice that all of the best hitters in the game that I've picked a lot of times average about 4-5 pts per game, except for some bad luck (Sizemore 3.3 PPG in 29 games). I'd like to know if any of you have more or less success. share your info, wusses!
