Yeah, KFPC, but I'm not very savvy when it comes to linking other posts into this post. So help me if it pleases you.

A question for you guys:

What NL division would you like the Blackjacks to play in?

I don't really care about geography so much, so every division is in play.
It needs to be NL, because the DH and its accompanying rules mess with the whole two way player thing. There's five of you playing now, so I'll only vote if ties need to be broken.

LVB 7, TOR 1

The long ball made quite an impact today, as the Jacks hit seven solo homers en route to an exhibition win. Dusty Yokel, Lance Derby, and Cristobal Santos each hit two homers.
Derby picked up the save with 1and1/3 perfect innings of relief.

John Bradley also stole a base.

Well, I doubt that the long ball will be a big part of our offense.
PanPakka park is a much bigger than Local Ballpark.

Alfonzo woke up to the sound of his phone ringing.
He groggily answered it. From what he heard, he thought it must be some strange dream.
"What's that?", he said, "Is this for real?"
"Yes. It's real.", said Sergey Brin on the other end, "Fonzo, are you ok, dude? I sent you several important emails about this."
Alfonzo rarely checked his email.
"Get the team ready," said Sergey, "we leave for Paris in five hours."

The Blackjacks were occupying many more seats than they needed in the Las Vegas airport, as only professional athletes probably can.
John Bradley, and Jack Caselli were playing a card game that John called "cosmic baseball". John had discovered it when readingThe Dharma Bums, by Jack Kerouac.

Tucker Towns was practicing the art of zen meditation with Hansuke, who believed it to be the secret to avoiding jet lag.

Lance Derby and Dusty Yokel were playing a game where they would name a baseball team and a year, and the other would have to name as many players as possible in a minute from that team, and they would get a point per player.
Lance said to Dusty "here's an easy one: the '86 Mets"
LGM, time yourself and see how many you can name. I know you'll be honest with us. Let me know how many you get. You can list all the players if you really want to.

After he rattled off the '86 Mets, Dusty countered to Lance with "the '86 Astros"
Tdud, do the same

Dusty named ten of the '86 Mets in 60 seconds, then just for his own satisfaction added five more after time expired.
Dusty STAM+10

Lance named four of the '86 Astros Lance STAM+4
...
Tucker Towns overheard the game and asked Lance to give him a team.
Lance replied with "the '89 Cubs"

(Note from dustyfarmer: I got eight Cubs)

Wilkerson's actually the head baseball coach at my school, so yeah, I kinda have to know what teams he played for :lol:

Forgot about Dunston; if I remember right, his son (Shawon Jr.) is in the Cubs' system as an outfielder.
