Doug- I only wish I had the '72 A's pitching! Instead of Blue Moon and pray for a hurricane. I did like all the different A's uniform color combinations back in those days, like in the '72 Series vs. your Redlegs.

And boy, am I happy to be in the division against the Orioles, Pirates and Mets! Let alone ugrant, Risden and ldan. Looking forward to a beat down! :cry:

Still a fun format though - thanks Jett for getting it together!
