Congrats on the big win. You so dominated our league that I don't think there was a time when we all weren't just playing for 2nd.

Thanks, Jon; that means a lot coming from you. Things certainly would have been different had my ace target of Bauer not gone too high for my tastes or had I gotten stuck price-enforcing Harper. Better to be a bit more lucky than good, as they say :D

Congrats Mr. Halusker!
Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.
