Werewolf is cutting into my time more than usual.

I may need a few minutes.

I am almost done with my lineups, but I may be pushing it. I'll post when I am set, if that's okay.

Heh, if you think about it, I'm not really hard to find in there. But with so many people, it's hard to tell, I know.

Of course, I knew you were playing, lol.

I really needed a better May than that if I was going to compete this year. June and July won't be as kind to me.

Yep, once May was over I knew it was done. I had to be in the lead after May to have a shot.

Well, Baltimore's magic number is 2. Hartford's is 9. So the latter are teasing us...we'll go a little slower, as a result.

10 games total vs Atlanta and Rio Grande in September. Valdosta plays Baltimore 7 times. Looks like 2nd is almost a lock. I'm pleased.

(And curse you, Baltimore!)

I'm going to start measuring my self worth by other standards. My SA and R league teams have been dominant during my tenure.

My team started the season 10-50? Seriously, WTF is that? Did I hit some super secret option on accident that tells my players to never use their natural throwing hand and you watch the hilarity play out?

Strategy is probably part of the problem but since the AI won't set my strategy since I have no staff then I guess I am screwed until I luck into some kind of settings that work.

MR-Gilbert made the all start team shoot. I was hoping he would have an average year, now he is gonna want big time bucks.......

Baltimore had 9 on the all star team (if i can count correctly) hell of a season again!!!

5 all stars. Much better than the past few years.

This would have been a dominant season for me if it hadn't been for SOMEONE.

Cringer, if you want to spend some time after this season I would be happy to look over the strategy stuff with you. Just let me know. Alot of stuff I do is not conventional, but I am ok with setting conventional strategies as well.

This year Hartford will win the championship since Baltimore will be the favorite. That is just how OOTP rolls!

Congrats to Hartford and Baltimore, again. Fun to see new dynasties taking hold as we prepare to enter the 1980S!
