can we confirm marty hart?  i'm only going off memory.

big-o was in the playoffs a lot, thought he won once.

[Planet Houston 4943]

2011 - The Blondetourage - @henrygandorf

2012 - The Oh No-No's - @shadow_operative

2013 - BIG IN JAPAN - @enjay (new handle?)

2014 - Marty Hart, Family Man - @BigOrange1

2015 - The Jack Butler Method - @henrygandorf

2016 - Squat Cobblers - @Planet Houston

2017 - North Correa Assassins - @Fawesome

2018 - The Mad Fat Chick Killer - @shadow_operative

2019 - Killer B's - @Planet Houston 

2020 - Trash Can Knockers - @Fawesome

 

Next question - do we want team names and handles on the trophy each year?  Team names mean nothing to me.  

[Planet Houston 4943]

And yes let's confirm

yeah that was BigO.

[henrygandorf 29201]

yeah, i always assumed it would have the year, handle, and team name.

depends on the size of the plates i guess, but it should fit on 2 lines.

[Planet Houston 4943]

Agree.  But Derka's handle is Derka.  None of this S_O bullshit!

[NorthLoop 14305]

put his full name

Derka Derka Muhammad Jihad

if i had to guess, big in japan might've been hitby, i remember him being fairly successful i thought.

can anyone access the history part of the site?  it takes me to a red warning page.  bizarre.

Wasn't me. I finished second a few times. Now, it's this. Thanks, Jose

[UTPhil2006 3831]

[shadow_operative 15932]

[shadow_operative 15932]

asked HG if i should pick him up after his 5/5 debut. he said "do it." i did not listen. instead i added Buster Posey, who i then dropped before he ever played for my team. #nailedit 

[shadow_operative 15932]

anybody else wishing we had an extra IR spot?

[Fawesome 111]

[huge 3802]

My entire offense should be on IR

[APMP 688]

So I guess JD Martinez got over those cold like symptoms pretty fast...

this is not even close to the best derka story of the week (though i thought you picked him up).  we are teammates in the surly roto league for the first time this year.  and he texted me several days ago:

derka - hey, albies is off to a slow start but he's gonna get hot we should find whoever has him and try to trade for him, maybe they're ready to give up on him.

me - we have him.

[shadow_operative 15932]

[UTPhil2006 3831]

Altuve looking pretty good so far 

[shadow_operative 15932]

i mean it's not like i vehemently insisted that we draft him or anything...

[UTPhil2006 3831]

Seager who 

[Fawesome 111]

I always had high hopes that altuve was gonna turn it around this season. Seems like the video replays in the dugout helps him now.

[henrygandorf 29201]

When I go to look at mine I get depressed.  So I am ok with it for now...

[APMP 688]

Gotta love it when your top 3 picks (Bellinger, Yelich, Rendon) are all on the IL in week two.

i don't think yelich or rendon are actually on the il yet, but i might be wrong.

point taken though.  i played the back half of my week without mookie, and had the extra fun of bregman missing two games (as well as having the astros off sunday).

this isn't counting the folks who had to wait a week for any of their nats to play.

[henrygandorf 29201]

point of order, mr commissioner, i don't think it's fair that glasnow should be allowed to face the rangers.

that is all.

[huge 3802]

Buddy of mine asked if I could get in game odds on number of rangers hits tonight. He wanted to bet under .5 if it was offered

[NorthLoop 14305]

12 Ks, 1w, 1h..... 0 runs from your offense. Thanks TB.

[henrygandorf 29201]

i spoke too soon, rendon is now on the il.

[APMP 688]

i spoke too soon, rendon is now on the il.

Yup, was bound to happen with the way this season has started for me. On the flip side, I think I'll get back a probably rusty Kyle Schwarber to bring down the batting stats.

[NOMAAA 1696]

Does the app absolutely suck balls for anyone else?

[NOMAAA 1696]

Also, where we at with the league funds going to btc? Missed a big peak this week.

I think you saw how somehow it fucked up me putting Justin Fucking Bieber back in my lineup

I mean who would want to start that spare.

[shadow_operative 15932]

how many albums, er, strikeouts did he record?

[shadow_operative 15932]

never a good feeling when you open up your team page and see this much red: 

 

[henrygandorf 29201]

if we are buying the btc, now is the time.

who wants to do it?

[Fawesome 111]

who wants to do it?

I’m in if someone takes the lead. Who’s the btc expert? I only have Doge
