That's part of the reason why I lost the division. While it would've been nice to win, I knew I was facing Beefy either way and that after the first round (if I advanced), I'd be the road team the rest of the way. So instead of trying to match up w NorCal's pitchers, I threw who I needed to in order to reset the rotation.

It didn't help tho that my SP in one of the games went down in the first inning and taxed my pen for the week :lol:

So most likely wont pitch until game 3. So much for Lehman vs. Rivera. I guess Rivera will get a chance for the sweep if things go Washington's way. Otherwise he could be in line for game 1 against Cincinnatti so its not all that bad.

good planning Ted
I haven't sent an upload in like 8 weeks of gametime. I was in Iceland :lol:
What does one do or see in Iceland?

Wasn't anything close to an excuse. I'm stating that I was more concerned about setting up for playoffs than winning the division. Ted was in a similar situation (knowing he was in but winning more mattered little) and it would've made sense for him to do the same, but as we now know he wasn't exporting. Even had I focused on winning, no guarantee I would have.

No winning my division mattered. I would have gone all out. Philly gets the winner of you a beefy. I get to play bear then if i win, Reign. He has the much better road.


AJ- i am so not hipster :lol: way to conservative for that.

Spain, England, Iceland, Morocco, Uganda, South Africa, Belize, Guatemala, Antigua and Barbuda, Thailand and Cambodia.
Plus a dozen or so trips to the US, mostly DC, Louisiana, California.

see dave....in the top line there, i have no desire to go to any of those places. Ted thinks my ideal vacation would be Sturgiss

Zero clue why. I dont ride motorcycles. I think he was just trying to think of the most boring vacation on earth and thats what he came up with. He's not too witty.
