"The Crow"

Any chance we could sim tonight?

[BradZ]

Eh, we competed better in this series than I thought we would. Pretty good, competitive baseball played on both sides. 3B Ling-lai Pang had an excellent series. Tex Watts showed up as well in the 4 games he was able to play in after coming back from injury.

In the end the better team won, as they should. Congrats, Pat.

[Pat]

Thanks Brad. The series was pretty competitive but Game 6 was over before the 2nd inning started.

I'd love to get a sim in tonight if possible...I fly out tomorrow morning at 6AM and I'm gone for a week. Would love to know going into the vacation that Windy City beat me.

[Matt]

Highly doubtful we get a sim in tonight...going same day between rounds is kinda fast.

If all four teams are in and give the okay though I can run it at 8 PM PCT before I have to leave.

[Pat]

That would be awesome. Hopefully Jistic and Spectre will be around...

I'm torn over who to root for in the playoffs. Lager pride or the clown. Normally this wouldn't be a big decision as rooting against the clown is good for the BLB. But the forums will be hysterical if there is a WC - PAW meeting in the Finals. In not counting out WAS...but come on now.

Pawtucket advances 4-2 and take a 2-1 lead on our yearly first round playoff extravaganza.

Good series Jake, but we cant have a GM ripping on a fellow GM for blowing the #1 seed three seasons in a row. We fought for Ryan's honor on this day

Ok on the serious side we are exported and ready to go. New York is a strange puzzle to us. They're stadium makes soccer look like a high speed scoring affair, but this isn't the same team they faced in mid season either.

Good luck Spectre and I hate your stadium.

I want NY vs. DC or WC vs. PAW.

[funclown]

I want NY vs. DC or WC vs. PAW.

I prefer Pawtucket versus somebody

[Pat]

DC vs PAW would be pretty exciting too. Rematch.

DC played Mississippi in '88.

[Ryan]

GO FUNCLOWN!

Jake,

[Jistic]

We're in and ready to go. Bulls/Pistons round...whatever.

[Pat]

This could be the passing of the torch series.

[Spectre]

Hey guys, I won't be able to get the sim in until ~1PM EST (nice 30 hour shift tonight). I'll have it in around that time if you don't mind waiting a bit.

By the way, how about that 17 inning game with me and Indy that we won 1-0?! That's gotta be one of the most epic games in BLB history for those of you following. Joey Simpson pitched 10 innings of shutout ball in that one.
