Sarge said...: Stems? 6th.; April 7, 2008 at 10:12 PM
Smiff said...: You can chalk the Cherries up to The Smiff Effect. The other two: even a stopped clock tells the correct time twice a day.; April 7, 2008 at 10:15 PM
k-mad said...: Stems in 6th is a miracle in itself.; April 7, 2008 at 10:16 PM
Smiff said...: Chix? 6th.; April 7, 2008 at 10:17 PM
Smiff said...: You are right about the Stems.; April 7, 2008 at 10:17 PM
k-mad said...: From now on you can call them by their actual name: FIGHTIN' ... Bluestem.; April 7, 2008 at 11:21 PM
k-mad said...: Chix are lying fallow... no, what's dat pfing bears do? Eating clowns... yeah dats it...; April 7, 2008 at 11:30 PM
Fungster said...: All dese team names mean nuffin 2 me. Perhaps we need a cheat sheet wit who ownes what? Udderwise I'm just gonna assume dat the leading team is Smiffs, K-Mad and Corms duking it out in da middle, and Sarge thinking about 2012. So it gets confusing when multiple teams are doing well...; April 8, 2008 at 11:20 AM
k-mad said...: All you need to know: the All-K-Mad circle of misfourtune:

Prairie Chickens (chix!)
Edgewater Smelts
Andersonville Horror
Fightin' Bluestem (the Fightins!)
Chukar Cherries (co-owned with Smiff); April 8, 2008 at 11:31 AM
Fungster said...: So wait, YOU have 3 teams (one co-owned) tied for first and two teams tied for 6th? Huh? How many teams are there? How many does each one of you own? WTF is going on?

Wait, do I really want to know those answers...; April 8, 2008 at 12:16 PM
Smiff said...: Yahoo leagues:
Lord Viper Elefantes (Wellness Center - currently in 5th, will finish in 1st, it's the law)

A lotta people don't realize what's really going on. They view life as a buncha unconnected incidences and things. They don't realize that there's this like lattice of coincidence that lays on top of everything. I'll give ya an example, show ya what I mean. Suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. Suddenly somebody will say like, "plate" -- or "shrimp" -- or "plate of shrimp" -- out of the blue, no explanation. No point looking for one either. It's all part of a cosmic unconsciousness.

"You know the way everybody's into weirdness right now? Books in all the supermarkets about Bermuda Triangles, UFOs, how the Mayans invented television, that kind of thing? Well the way I see it it's exactly the same. There ain't no difference between a flying saucer and a time machine.... People get so hung up on specifics, they miss out on seeing the whole thing. Take South America for example. In South America, thousands of people go missing every year. Nobody knows where they go. They just like disappear. But if you think about it for a minute, you realize something: there had to be a time when there was no people right? Well, where did all these people come from? Hmm? I'll tell you where: the future. Where did all these people disappear to: hmmm? the past. How did they get there? Flying saucers, which are really... yeah, you got it! Time machines!"
