Brother ballplayers - When we're done playin' ball someday, we gotta get together and write a friggin' book!!!! I ain't never seen such a group of eloquent writers. Jim P and Mike H - you wanna be co-Commissioners of that league?? We'll have to go find Dick Stark. He said he's going to some island in the m...
I just finished reading all of the postings in the various strings about how the championship game ended.
I must echo - as loud as I can - the words of Steve Lounello. I had the pleasure of playing with Steve last year on the Peppers and know from that experience that he has it right. Guys, we're all in o...
I think Mike Hart has come up with a fair solution and those invoved should certainly consider his suggestions. We certainly need umps for our league and if word gets around that this behavior is the norm, we could end up in a worse situation where we have no umps! We all have been victims of awful calls bu...
An exceptional pitching dual in game 2 of the 38 finals, between the Orioles John Pologna, and the Silver's Jon Martin, was overshadowed by a late inning incident, which resulted in the Orioles forfeiting the game, and the championship.

I feel bad for all the players that are class acts in this league and their "Big Game" ruined by the immaturity of a few. Congratulations to the 2005 38+ over Champions the Silver Marlins. I know most of yo...
I was not at the Finals. I cannot comment on any of the specifics. I have friends on both teams.
To truth is, I find it sad -- but by no means unforeseen -- that a championship game has ended this way. These events are not without CONTEXT, and I feel it's important for our league members to see these events...
