Nakor, Tania, Protocool, and I entered into a game of fantasy baseball earlier in the season, and the season culminates in about a week or so. At which point in time someone will be crowned the winner. Let's see where everyone is:<
><
>Nakor's team, the Blue Riders, is presently in first place with 32.5 points. They have done so by leading the league in three of five offensive categories (home runs, RBIs, and batting average.) If the Riders stay in first, Nakor earns 2 million Starbucks.<
><
>D-RAYS' team, the aptly-named RAYS, are doing much better than their Major League Baseball counterparts, the Devil Rays. In second with 29.5 points, they lead the league in runs and stolen bases as well as WHIP (walks and hits per inning pitched.) The prize for second place is 100,000 Starbucks.<
><
>Protocool is hanging around in third with 24 points. The Proto-Raiders' strength is its pitching, leading in strikeouts, earned run average, saves. However, they are last in runs, stolen bases, and batting average. Third place is worth 50,000 Starbucks.<
><
>Tanis' Ucchans are hopelessly in last place with 14 points. Aside from being last in the league in home runs and RBI's, the Ucchans are dead last in all five pitching categories. Tanis will likely receive the last-place prize of 25,000 Starbucks.<
><
>I will be checking the league to see how it finishes; I hope the other three will do so as well. <B>God bless America, land that I love; stand beside her and guide her through the night with a light from above.

I'm keeping an eye on things. Many of the points still have close enough stats to change the balance, but the fact that only a week of games are left locks things in a bit... I'll see if I can hold on. <

I haven't touched my team in months either...I guess I just picked a good bunch. Remember, Tanis, that pitching is uber-important. It's probably 60-70% of the game. Oh well; at least you can get back in the game in hockey season (I started the league already.) <B>God bless America, land that I love; stand beside her and guide her through the night with a light from above.

Oh, I'm going right now to sign up for that... think I'm gonna let you guys get all the good players!?<

>Either way, way, I never paid attanetion to the baseball league, because I hatebaseball...<

>Now that it's hockey, I'll be keeping track of my team like all get-out! <i></i>

Nakor won, as expected...he finished with 33 points and will receive 2 million Starbucks. I get 100,000; Protocool gets 50,000. Tanis, for his, umm, finish, gets 25,000. <B>God bless America, land that I love; stand beside her and guide her through the night with a light from above.

And just who do you rule?<

>The pink nipple people!? <i></i>

Okay, I'm wrong , you haven't watched enough Kung Pow. Watching more may eventually get you sick of it, and you'll also remember that the line was "the dark nipple people." <
