After winning wild card titles in both '09 and '10, the Blues have to be considered the underdogs again this time around, with only 89 wins in the regular season.

WJS6768 had 5 more wins, in qualifying for his first playoff visit; thechamp87 had an even 100 wins, for his 2nd visit; and, sooner or later, jodynadu's efforts are bound to pay off...

This is jody's 4th consecutive trip to the post-season and his is the only team to have a winning record in every one of our first 6 seasons. If I weren't in the playoffs myself, I think I'd be rooting for him!

After a subpar year the Pawnee Parks Department has announced that they are going to field calls for any and all players and picks that are tied to the franchise.

Ninersphan is considering taking over jodynadu's team, although he is concerned that the team was built for the 6 seasons we have already played and that the gas tank is now empty.

He writes:
"There's like 4 guys on that squad worth trading. Let me cut 25 and change the ball park and then I'll consider taking it on"

I would be willing to go along with that, so that he would take this fixer-upper.

Any objections?

If all 10 other owners agree to my terms, I take on this pig, but you guys better be ready to deal especially those of you hoarding 4 and 5 guys at one position.

It's fine with me.
