    Maybe THAT's the problem in Los Lunas...Our bible is "Catcher in the Wry" (Bob Eucker).

      5 people still need to vote!

      Remember, you get no bonus money if you don't vote!

      Plus, we really can't start the off-season on-time until all of this stuff is finalized.

      Get crackin'!

      (And vote Rod Phillips - IL New Brew)
      The Great One!

          Is there a way to see if our vote went through correctly? I guess you could just list the slackers who didn't vote. Or I could try to vote again and see if it lets me.

          Nah, just give us the list of slackers.

            It'll say you already voted.

              I don't know how Grant Lewis is going to get 3rd in the Last Call...I'm even more shocked he got three first place votes...must be people voting for whoever has the most saves...

              Román Magueu had a better season.

                Mel Woodbury would like to officially thank everyone for making him the IL Stout Slugger....

                Rod Phillips would like to officially tell many of you to kiss his ass....

                And, to whoever gave me a 1st Place vote for J. Allen Wright, thank you for recognizing my greatness... but... I'll caution you not to waste your vote in the future. I'm a polorizing character in the BLB. It'd be like Ochocinco winning the Walter Payton Man of the Year.

                  That was me. I was a big fan this year. When I thought I was out of it I was rooting for you. Ironic the way it ended.

                    I gave my first place vote to Brad. It takes balls to trade the league's best player in his prime, while you're still a contender. Then, to finish in first place without said player? Yeah, that sealed it for me.

                      I voted for Diesel in 1st place. I just look at his team and don't see 100 wins and two titles. Because of that, I have to assume he's doing his homework on building a team in this game.

                      Don't get me wrong... he backed into the Martin Carlton experience.... but outside of Russ McEvoy and Grant Lewis... how many of his players are Top 5 in the league at their position? Any?

                      It's a very complete team.

                        I appreciate the kind words and the vote, but I think Spear was the right choice. He is who I voted for. The Brawlers finished in 4th place for three straight seasons, Spear comes in, makes some changes, a lot that are questioned by the BLB brass and then goes on to win the division and took Philly to game seven. Very impressive.

                        I do agree with you Clay. My team, top to bottom, is very complete. I'd say my worst starter is by far 3B Pete Summers, but he is still a pretty serviceable player in this league. Probably very few top five players but I think everyone outside of Summers, is top 10.

                          Since we know who the winners are, I guess you won't be doing your article on the winners this year, Clay? I really liked those.

                          Does the utility have the option of hiding the results until after the deadline? I miss the drama and anticipation of finding out who the award winners are. This year was a bit anticlimactic.

                              I may do something on them. I figured it gives all of the winner's owners a chance to do one themselves. That's good money for people to lose not writing their own.

                              Plus, to be honest, I've been trying to spend my BLB time on the Minor League realignments and some graphics that needed to be created and fixed for the Feeder Leagues.

                                You should know better than to count on me. I believe I've voted for you in the past. Not this year. Though, I was impressed by your season... and your overall turnaround of that organization.

                                I think I was Diesel.... I don't remember.... and Andrew. I think I had Brad 2nd, but I'm not sure.
