Oh, Beth, That sounds so down- I bet you are a wonderful person. and I bet we would all love to hear some of your basement stories. If it was up to me I would give you the extra point and maybe a second one so you could pass me by!
I will tell you what I will do. I will again leave my team as it was for the last two weeks. Maybe they will not play or better yet have a rainout in New York today!
Then again it looks like Geoff took the Yanks too, so I guess I shouldn't be a bad sport and curse him as he is in the hunt for second play.
We all know how heated those two can get when the pressure is turned up!

Then again maybe you would rather I give you some trash talk and tell you to take a hike you bottom dweller

Now THAT's more like it. A good argument only pumps the adredaline. Tell me I belong in the gutter with the rest of the scum. That might get my juices flowing.

Me, a wonderful person???? A bit of a stretch. But keep the flattery up if you want. It'll get you nowhere.

OH, so you THAT type of women.

You better watch out then, because it is raining across most of the North East here and we would hate to see you flushed down the street with the rest of the gutter trash. It would really make a mess of your hair and your favorite Party Dress!

I've lived through 2 months of non stop rain. 2 weeks of a heat wave. Thunderstorms the past couple nights. And as far as my hair, that's why I invested $5 in a brush.

Party dress ? Ughh! Not MY kind of party. I prefer the come as you are dress code. Everyone waits on pins and needles to see what I come as. You can bet no panty hose are involved.

But thanks for the gutter trash remark. Now, I'm really pumped and ready for action!

The only possible rainout in NY today is the Mutts, who're halfway thru their game. The Yanks are in Cleveland.

Tho, I sure wish you would change your PS, cuz it's causing Bethie to curse it every day!! :p

Rain delay in Chicago - how's it looking Douche-Man? I don't care. I got rid of that '0-fer' Lowell - probably guaranteeing he will have his best day all season today. But not if they are not playing, huh?

But I wonder who took the Cubs ? And we ALL know what water does to Wood. Yep, shrinkage!!!

Raining in NY as well? This is gonna be a long day!

Do you know the Southwest where I live is ON FIRE as we speak? Literally. ON FIRE. AND it is currently 103 degrees 0% humidity. Um, yoo hoo! Could use some rain over here, por favor???!!!

It's not looking too good. I decided to walk down the street to get some lunch and it started raining a little bit on my way back.

Shrinkage? What's shrinkage? Never heard of it! I was wondering when someone was going to make the first Wood joke! I was starting to think we were losing our touch.

Oh Boy, that is tuff luck Bethie.
Yanks will kick some major league ass today.

No mater what Drew Carey and all the little girls with the Crimson Lips Say, Cleveland Sucks!
Bethie is down and she is staying down!

Hey Douche Man - I got two players in the Chicago - Floriday game. I am stuck with rook as my pitcher with an ERA the size of my - oh nevermind. I really need this game - can you do me a favor and open a window and shoo some of those clouds away or something, aim a fan out the window or something. I already got squat from Burnitz.

C'mon show a brother some love here, huh.

Well DB, the guys who are usually so proud of their Wood and display their Wood so prominently have opted for other avenues in their quest for excitement. (Insert a YankMe joke or D-Cup(Back) joke here) And the man we call either Satan or Mister Anti-Innuendo is the only one who had faith in his Wood.

Just leave it to a girl to just stand back and observe the Wood situation for a little while.

I'll show you some love!

But alas, can't do anything about Chicago weather from here.

Can I just say I WON'T allow doubleheaders while I am out of town??????

For a brother who has been openly expressing his desire to overtake fourth place... good luck, man! Find yourself another shmoe! :p

Actually, since JG moved into third place, my view hasn't been so great! I tell you what- I'll crack open a window and use one of the secretaries here at work- she seems to blow a lot of hot air.

Man....I have so many come back lines for that one. But I'll let it slide.

Don't waste the crying icon on me my friend. One thing I am not is a whiner. I'll just have to break your knee caps as originally planned. :p

I'll show you some love!

But alas, can't do anything about Chicago weather from here.
[/b][/quote]Hey BDD, maybe I should invite Buffy to the window- I'm sure she knows more about blowing (out windows that is ) than I do. I'm sure she's better than the fan you asked for!

Maybe they were the ones with shrinkage! :p Pork and Bad Daddy Thought Bubble - "I swear this never happens!"

As for you and I, Buff, we were too busy worrying about the other side of our anatomy- namely our Colon.

Shit, I was laughing at the rain in Chicago when I realized I have Sosa in my lineup today... figures!! But I'd rather have my Sosa do nothing if PL'S PS does nothing!

Make sure you don't miss the DH this weekend than.

Don't stress me out, BDD!! ....

I love you guys but unlike , I won't be checking in to say hi while I'm gone.

Ok, I HEARD that collective sigh of relief.

Don't know what you've got till it's gone. I know Bethie is away this weekend as well and contrary to POPULAR belief, no, we won't be together Thelma and Louise-ing it. You boys will have to play amongst yourselves. Just let me know Sunday where the after-party is. You can appreciate my desire to kick in the shins while he is doing that stupid dance of his.....

Wow, you, PL and Basement Bethie will all be gone. BB, when are you leaving ? You sure you three will not all be in the same place ?

Well have a good time, I would like to say we'll all miss you - but :rolleyes: No internet access for 4 days - at the end of the season - you'll be a mess on Sunday. :p My guess is withdraw will probably hit around 7:00pm tomorrow night. I am sure we will all look for you at the Dodgers game probably being escorted off the fields or out of the dugout by security.

So looks like it is gonna be just us bunch of guys the next few days than - gee that doesn't seem like a lot of fun now does it? OK, Whose turn is it to get the beer ?

Bastid PL has 3 innings of no-hit ball... but I guess if I can only anti-jinx one, it has to be the squatter in my Second Place position!

Detroit

..and the ability to play with your Wood sans girls came a day too soon tsk, tsk.

And fortunately for you all, PL said he would be back Friday. :rolleyes:

I will give you a hint though - I DID NOT take LA Friday as much as I wanted to have a reason for being there. Nomo is pitching. One big screw-up and they WOULD HAVE to call security on me! Has to be a better way to get on the big Sony!!

It's not my fault you and Buffy confer on PS's each day :p

Actually, yesterday was PL. O.K., I just won't pick what those two pick! Let me see... I won't ask Bethie, SC, or Bad Daddy who they are picking tomorrow because of the curses. I won't ask OA, UU or HH who they are picking since they aren't playing so that's no fun. Fatherson either since he isn't playing, but he is smack talking a lot! Is JJ still playing?

I certainly won't ask you JG. Although you won't curse yourself- you got the curse after all. Which leaves me with... nothing.

Ahhh, screw it, I'll pick Detroit and get it over with! :p

Stop saying that! I am NOT a team player, dammit!

But can I just say I am only selfish when it comes to competitive sport?

I don't leave until Friday Bad Daddy. So you guys can't start the bachelor party for another day. What, you guys play with your Woody alone, and you drink alone too? I could probably drink you under the table cupcake. What's your favorite shot? Hell, I'm taking $200 for 2 days and don't plan on taking home any souveneirs. How drunk can I get on that?

I might just play with fathersson and pick the Yankmes. That way the only way to really get away from me is with his long ball. Let's see if it's up for the challenge.

With the prices in NY - probably not very drunk. Where you going, into NY City?

So if you somehow get yourself out of the basement tonight - all you need to do is pick the same team a FS before you leave. Since he is not changing his team - you'll come home and still be out of the basement. But you might wanna straigthen it up some for next season.

Well have a good time on your trip - you need bail money you know where to go. :p

Yeah, Bad Daddy, in the city. The prices aren't a problem. Don't most places take credit cards? Hope the bums don't mind sharing their park benches when I'm too drunk to remember where my hotel is.

So, I know where to go if I need bail money? Yeah, I've been told to go there most of my life. :p

Well, Wood threw a nice little 1 run, 3 hit, 12 strikeout (against 3 walks) win for the Cubbies. No shrinkage there!

Sosa also got another useless homerun- useless to the game that is, but not for our fantasy league!
