Labor Day Picnic -- league created

Postby ADRIANGABRIEL » Sat Sep 01, 2007 12:10 pm

Dan is actually spot on and I don't know how to explain it either. The Strat Gods, I believe are against him where I am concerned. A classic illustration is the Ball State Germaniac challenge. His team won 104 games--10 games better than the next best team. My team squeaked into the playoffs with a 80-82 record. I actually posted that I would win the series in league mail. You know what? I swept.

As for the team name. Well, now that it's out there, I just had a vasectomy and I've developed a not uncommon hematoma. I love the team name and I might have had a moment's hesitation pressing 'create your team', but I figured everyone's an adult here.

Team names are the toughest part of the whole enchilada for me - after I buy a team, I sit there staring at that screen for 30 minutes trying to come up with something clever. I can only use "The Slapaho Tribe" a few times. :shock:

I'm pretty much hopeless with team names. I created Juneau What? and Crimea River a couple years ago, and it's been a dry well ever since.

Ballplayers scratching their privates has been a part of baseball since before there were sports pages. So I suppose Adrian's topic is relevant.

They do a lot of spitting too, I suppose that could be good for a couple 'o teams. :twisted:

Anymore, all leagues have names. If I know the league name before I'm creating my team, I sometimes think about the that when naming my team. War Against Iran league, why Persian Purple Sox; Time Travel League, Temporal Anomalies; Return of the RingKings, Regal Royals, etc.

Of course, you realize the moment 'Testicular Blood Blisters' popped into my head, I thought 'that would make a great team name!'

I'd still love a referral, though. ;)

Usually, those things don't "pop into my head" though - might be a good idea not to contemplate any weapons purchases in your immediate future. :?

Manager Jelly Stoner reports that when the Munich Man enters the league, the Boo Boos can begin. :shock: :lol:

Now that team neam... the full version from the league that is... just isn't right :o
This league has officially lost control before it even began- what's next, Munich Man playing Baker Bowl...? Once Munich loads his team, instead of the customary "top 5 autocard" disclosure, how about everyone naming the top 5 medical procedures we've all had :P

Munich's back... and we are filled :)

It's been a couple of days, so I can't REALLY remember my top 5...but I'm almost sure I had Koufax and Eddie Collins... and may have had Rose and Ryan too... it'll be fun to try to remember before the frenzy hits... :P
