Other options include:

I'm open to any stadium configuration you choose. I just don't think it will matter on my way to a repeat championship. :D

~~Shiver~~....I just think of my last FRKL season and get the chills!! How you guys talked me into repeating this nightmare is beyond me! :shock:
[b:33e1b65e16]I've already decided who my 6 keepers are. They are the only ones who are worthy of being kept.[/b:33e1b65e16]
1. Paco Valez--the greenskeeper (nice mowing job-spelled out FRKL in the outfield before games).
2. Otto Van Blowout --Bullpen coach (he worked his butt off last season having to pick up the phone around the 2nd or 3rd inning each game to get the weary relievers throwing)
3. Sara Lee--Personal Chef (she helped get through the sweeps with specially prepared comfort food)
4. Pussycat Dolls--Cheerleaders (they were the only reason the stands were filled at home)
5. Cooter McCracken--Parks Cars for Home games (I once saw him intentionally "key" Jeepdrivers Wrangler one time....he is a keeper)
6. Me--Owner (None of the debacle last season was my fault. I am brilliant!!)

I will have to start from scratch for the rest of my franchise. :cry:
