Ya, I think we need to lock this and decide on who gets this pivotal series. This just doesn't seem right.

I'm expecting this thread to mysteriously vanish, except not really mysteriously at all.

It is clear that you put some effort in creating this ST, and for that I truly commend you...but C'MON MAN, you can't derail BLC like this! He was voted upon as the official thread starter by committee, and we have to see this through! (You're also cherry-picking a "seemingly" easy series)

You also have the same pitcher listed for games 1 &2........C'MON MAN!!!!!!

If I'm not mistaken, wasn't it HangTime who came in after the Cardinals series when BLC was finally dethroned. I could be thinking of CrymeTime, but either way any time-related username is not the answer. Plus this doesn't feel democratic at all.

Edit - It looks as though Schad was the one who started the Twins series. It was then CrymeTime who did the Baltimore series.

This feels wrong, man. "I wish we could amnesty Bautista" wrong. To cast an all-time great like BLC aside in favour of -- and I mean no offense, HangTime -- some AAAA scrub who wouldn't know what winning was if it was dressed like Elvis and sodomizing his cat, I just can't support that. Even the greats have slumps.

If Edwin suffers another setback this weekend, then a HangTime sacrifice may be in order.

a sacrifice should already be in order for HangTime as per this thread

i hereby vote to send this thread into digital oblivion

(no offense HangTime - you're a good guy but i've taken 3 showers since this thread spawned)

Can't go against a vote. I know blc doesn't care...but what about the community ?? Lol

PS new commissioner has been selected. Why would the jays vote against him? What does his agenda mean for the team?
