Well boys, it only took us only 11 days to finish the $1000 SLOW DRAFT and a few thinks changed during that time!
First of all, the league was renamed by Mr. Jupinka The "MAX-PAIN" Draft and I have to admit it is growing on me ;)
Secondly, this is a really great group of guys and the draft was a blast again, so we decided to officially make this a annual league and get some hardware for the league champ! Enjoy MtM, but get ready to ship it right back to me here in Wisconsin, because I plan on starting a run that would make the New York Yankee's proud :P
Don't Worry Mike, Jersey will be spelt right on the trophy before I ship it! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Max,
It's incredible how much this trophy bears in physical similarity to me! ;) 8-) Looking forward to showing it off to family and friends who will no doubt roll their eyes and incomprehensibly shrug it off. :lol: Although you better get check with your engraver out there, 'cause us "JERSEY" boys take this sort of thing personally. :roll:

You got it pal! I honestly didn't even notice that it was spelled wrong until I posted the pictures and saw it. Good stuff!
Text me your address and I will ship it out next week, but won't they consider this contraband in the pen? ;)

as a native son of the garden state when I saw New Jersy on that trophy I was incredulous.

So incredulous was I that I googled the word & images and found this bad ass lil mofo w/ the zep t-shirt to help convey my feelings on this matter. Wake up Max :twisted:

I would also add that it appears MtM uses too much gel in his hair! :P
Mike, after further review and several guys chiming in via text, the trophy might have to stay "Jersy" after all... I guess anything to get in the head of the champ! Is Jersy still the Garden State?!?! :mrgreen:

I agree Max. From what's depicted of "Jersy"ites from this cast, most of the world probably figures that's how the natives spell it there anyway. :)

Not to mention the perpetual scowl on my face from having a baseball permanently welded to my hands. ;)

First of all, do you not think it would be a little funny now to leave it Jersy??? If not, I will have it changed!

Second of all, when did you jump into the time machine and snap a picture of the 1st Annual MtM Super League After Party? :P
