The loss would go to Ramirez. Stevens was off the hook when you tied the game.

A bit later than when I originally planned.. but: the WBC20 page is up.

I will admit that the group stage portion is a bit incomplete. Just don't feel like adding up each group stage's scores to get RS/RA//RD (as that's what the host is supposed to do.. but that's neither here nor there right now.) The All-time records page will be updated (alphabetically) over the upcoming weeks, but I won't post about them until after the WBC is completed.

At least your "ace" isn't Fausto Carmona. I still to this day have no clue why the Indians had and still have him.

I apologize for my absence this whole tournament - I've been bogged down badly by real life, like trying to figure out why it's taking the New Jersey State Government so long to mail me the job offer they said would come my way in an interview three weeks ago.

Probably the same reason the Blowrioles still have Jeremy Guthrie. They need SOMEONE to "lead" the staff.

As outlined here, if any WBC nations want to send some players to a likely lightly RP'ed (but regularly scorinated) domestic league, the LBÉC is starting up and a lot of large corporations are throwing considerable cash behind the league, so it may be an opportunity for players to get a big payday. Let me know via TG or by posting in the thread if you have any players looking to come to Cotdelapoms.

Seconded on the job sportsgirls did.

Thank you all for the congratulations.....I hope i get to defend against at least two of the three that withdrew (not expecting Newmanistan to return soon, though)...

I should get my new place reset enough to attempt a host bid for XXI when it comes around. And no, it won't be NSFS I use with it! Probably xkoranate.
