VICTORY IS MINE!

[xp_adrienne]

I drink from the keg of Fantasy Baseball glory!

Why yes, it DOES count as a win if you beat everyone you know! And also if everyone you know lost interest. In fact, then it counts even more! It says so in the rules somewhere...

CURSES!!! FOILED AGAIN!

[x-hawkeye.livejournal.com]

Is this like a class thing we were supposed to be doing or something? A summer project?

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

I wish! Then I'd have more people I know to beat! No, Mssrs Kane and Gibney and Ms Collins and myself played in a fantasy baseball league this year. And I beat all of them. So victory is mine.

[x-hawkeye.livejournal.com]

Okay, that makes a little more sense. I've never really followed baseball.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Well, at this school a statement like that will save you from a lot of heartache and teasing. Or possibly have a few of your schoolmates trying to persuade you to start following their team so you can participate in the heartache and teasing. You've been forewarned.

You gonna join our league next year?

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Dude, in my defense, well, the Genosha thing and then I just couldn't recover so I kinda gave up.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Dude, we all had 'the Genosha thing'! Totally not a valid defense! Quitter.

It was mostly the second part. I just couldn't figure out how to un-suck-ify my team and at a certain point you know, it's like kay, it's almost funnier to see how bad I can lose.

I was short four pitchers during the whole 'kidnapped' period due to injuries. I'm calling a mulligan on this year.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Almost. Not quite, though. You know what's funnier? Winning!

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

If our positions were reversed, would you let me call a mulligan?

[x-dominion.livejournal.com]

Of course. But I'd likely demand beer.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Okay FINE. But I demand beer. Harry's tonight? Baltimore versus Texas?

[x-dominion.livejournal.com]

To watch Joe Saunders get lit up like Times Square at midnight? Sure...

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Pfft! Baltimore is going to wallop Darvish's sorry ass, more like.

[x-dominion.livejournal.com]

Right-handers hit about a hundred points better and slug over two hundred better against Saunders than lefties. Texas is dominated by right handed power hitters. Saunders is going to get taken deep more times than a porn star marathon.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Texas is tired and on a skid and always chokes when they get into do-or-die situations, so excuse me if I don't take your prediction to the bank.

[x-dominion.livejournal.com]

Twenty bucks says that Texas takes it.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Twenty bucks and an oath to not have any coffee or alcohol for a week. Just to make it interesting.

[x-dominion.livejournal.com]

You're on.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

I dunno. Fantasy baseball isn't as fun as the real thing.

All dungeons, no dragons.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

I thought so at first, too. But it grows on you. Beating everyone you know IS the dragon!

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

I seeeeeeeeee.

No, I don't. but okay.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

I refuse to talk about the sorry state of either my fantasy baseball team or the Rockies.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

I still can't believe you played fantasy baseball this year but didn't play with the rest of us! Next year I'm not taking no for an answer.
