Frayed Knot Jun 10 2005 02:57 PM Edited 8 time(s), most recently on Jun 14 2005 11:58 PM

Since we lost the original list in the EZ-Board Tsunami, why doesn't everyone who wants to do one claim a series or two from the upcoming schedule: @ Oakland - Tues Jun 14, Wed Jun 15, Thurs Jun 16 {Seawolf 17} @ Seattle - Fri Jun 17, Sat Jun 18, Sun Jun 19 {Met Irish} @ Philly - Tues Jun 21, Wed Jun 22, Thurs Jun 23 {MFS '62} @ MFY - Fri Jun 24, Sat Jun 25, Sun Jun 26 {Frayed Knot} Philly - Tues Jun 28, Wed Jun 29, Thrus Jun 30 {MFS '62} Florida - Fri July 1, Sat July 2, Sun July 3 {Rockin' Doc} @ Washington - Mon July 4, Tues July 5, Wed July 6, Thurs July 7 {Nymr 83} @ Pittsburgh - Fri July 8, Sat July 9, Sun July 10 {Cooby} that'll get us to the A-S break. Fill up this list and we'll break out the 2nd half of the season - first come, first serve.

MFS62 Jun 10 2005 03:02 PM

Think I recall that I had the Phillies. I'll stick with them. Later

cooby Jun 10 2005 03:03 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Jun 10 2005 03:07 PM

I had the Pirates July 8thish. Yipes, mine is started in a Word file at work; I better figured out what to do if I get laid off in July

seawolf17 Jun 10 2005 03:04 PM

I'll take Oakland.

Frayed Knot Jun 10 2005 03:08 PM

Take both Phillys MFS. They're less than a week apart so the 2nd one will only need the new pitching sked plus a brief update if anything new happens.

Nymr83 Jun 10 2005 03:12 PM

i had washington on july 4th-7th.

metirish Jun 10 2005 03:12 PM

I'll take Seattle.

sharpie Jun 10 2005 04:03 PM

I have the Giants whenever we see them next.

By then I will have had my fill of the Phills. I've done them before. I think its the curse of Ray Culp and LArry Jackson, Sorry. Later

SwitchHitter Jun 11 2005 11:15 PM

I'll take the Astros at the end of July and I'll do a better job, too.

Rockin' Doc Jun 12 2005 10:24 PM KTE assignments...

I was down for the MFY series in the Bronx. I am still willing to do it, though I will likely turn in my assignment a few days early since I will be in Dallas (actually Grapevine, TX) for a conference from 6/22 - 6/26..

holychicken Jun 13 2005 09:02 AM

metirish, I was supposed to do seattle, but I have started yet, so you go ahead and take it. I will do one later, but I don't want the yanks or the fish. I think those should be given to the expert KTEers, not bumbling rookies like myself. Stupid rookies.

Frayed Knot Jun 14 2005 01:56 PM

Hey Rockin' Doc, Since I did the Yanks the last time around and you're not going to be around that weekend, do you want me to grab them and you can take the Fish for early July?

Lundy Jun 14 2005 03:09 PM

I'll take the Cubbies in the beginning of August.

Rockin' Doc Jun 14 2005 11:47 PM

Frayed Knot - "Hey Rockin' Doc, Since I did the Yanks the last time around and you're not going to be around that weekend, do you want me to grab them and you can take the Fish for early July?" That's fine with me. That will make it a little easier for me.

metirish Jun 17 2005 10:34 AM

KTE coming on Seattle

MFS62 Jun 17 2005 10:41 AM

What part of "Nope" didn't you understand? But you convinced me, you slick talker. I'll take the Phills for the end of June series, too (since you already have my name down for those games). I wouldn't want you to get eraser marks on your monitor. Later

metirish Jun 29 2005 11:07 AM

I'll take.. San Diego - Tues July 19, Wed July 20, Thurs July 21

TheOldMole Jun 29 2005 01:22 PM

I can do the Dodgers

smg58 Jun 30 2005 12:09 PM

I'll take the Brewers. I have too many of them on my fantasy team (although I can't really complain about Carlos Lee), so writing them up should be easy.

I'll take Colorado and the Nationals (all of 'em - keep it consistent).

Edgy DC Jul 14 2005 11:07 AM

Gimme the Dodgers.

Rockin' Doc Jul 14 2005 01:16 PM

I'll volunteer for the two Atlanta series in September (unless Frayed Knot wants them) since I watch more of their games than any other team. If FK wants to continue with the Braves then I will choose team to know tomorrow.

Old Mole, show me your soul.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2005 11:02 PM

Did Seawolf come through on this? The last visit to Coors featured a solid KTE by Archie Griffin with guest analysis by his one-sixth ton employer.

seawolf17 Jul 26 2005 06:40 AM

Crap. I thought of this yesterday morning, but forgot to do it. It'll be up this morning.

Frayed Knot Jul 26 2005 09:45 AM

Y'know this means it was YOUR fault that we lost last night -- we just didn't know our enemy well enough.

Johnny Dickshot Jul 26 2005 09:46 AM

My knowledge of the enemy was remarkably poor, as was Tom Glavine's.

Edgy DC Jul 28 2005 02:01 PM

Annie, get your gun.

metirish Aug 05 2005 09:28 AM

Bump, so what's new with the Cubbies, does Dusty want out so he can manage the Dodgers?

Edgy DC Aug 05 2005 09:29 AM

Has Lundy been posting?

Lundy Aug 05 2005 09:32 AM

Yes he has. Expect the KTE early this afternoon.

Edgy DC Aug 08 2005 10:28 PM

Listen. The Mets swept the Cubs for one reason and one reason alone: we had a quality KTE from Lundy --- a four-bagger into the parking lot --- and we were all prepared. We were game ready from the get-go to the last pitch by Aaron Heilman. Now we have nobody scheduled to follow up with the Padres, and we so desperately need knowledge of our monastic enemies who have been trading of late. Who wants to jump in here?

Willets Point Aug 08 2005 10:40 PM

What a great photo!

metirish Aug 08 2005 10:43 PM

Yeah Willets, great pic, but we are hoping you'd take the KTE...

Edgy DC Aug 08 2005 11:06 PM Edited 2 time(s), most recently on Aug 08 2005 11:32 PM

Hey, thanks for volunteering, Willets. Yeah, I found that photo looking for a shot of baseball-playing friars, but have you ever seen a monk look so much like a caricature of a monk before? Now I'm thinking that I actually must've stumbled upon the photo that was the source for the logo... It's gotta be.

metirish Aug 08 2005 11:14 PM

Edgy, that's crazy, it has to be true, it really is an amazing pic, the more you study it the more you see.

Edgy DC Aug 09 2005 03:26 PM

This is serious. Somebody step up.

Johnny Dickshot Aug 09 2005 03:42 PM

Coming right up

mlbaseballtalk Aug 15 2005 09:59 PM

If the Cards series isn't taken I'd take a stab at probably my third most hated team behind the Yanks and Dodgers. BTW 9/11 two New York teams will be playing teams named "Cardinals" with the Giants playing at home against Arizona, which could be a highly emotional affair, on both sidelines Steve

Frayed Knot Aug 15 2005 10:10 PM

The Cards are yours. Hey Edgy, since you didn't do the Dodgers this weekend ya wanna tell us all about the Pirates by tomorrow?

Edgy DC Aug 15 2005 10:12 PM

Yeah, I owe you that much. Too disturbed by the Padres series. Dodgers were half over before I snapped out of it. Too busy digging up crap from 1979, I guess.

Frayed Knot Aug 18 2005 11:55 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Aug 19 2005 10:22 PM

Enemy Knowledge Lacking

Zvon Aug 19 2005 08:59 PM

whats this all about?

ScarletKnight41 Aug 19 2005 09:00 PM

It's a Crane Pool Tradition for someone to analyze our opponent before a series. We actually have a KTE archive now - go down and read a few prior threads.

Zvon Aug 19 2005 09:04 PM

ScarletKnight41 wrote: It's a Crane Pool Tradition for someone to analyze our opponent before a series. We actually have a KTE archive now - go down and read a few prior threads. I will but Im not only multitasking here, Im bookootasking. Im familiar with the Phils team, and I can help you there. Ill figure out how to do that when i can. If I read that list right, Phils are open.

Frayed Knot Aug 19 2005 10:08 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Aug 19 2005 10:23 PM

Hey Z-dude, if you want the Phils series at the end of August it's yours. As mentioned, you can flip through some of the earlier examples here as a guideline - but it's not like there are any hard and fast rules about what's gotta be in it. It's just a way of letting the forum know more about the upcoming opponent they probably haven't seen for a while ... so most KTEs tell us about the scheduled pitching matchups, who's hot/who's not, recent callups/DLs, ex-Mets we might be seeing, your personal sexual experiences with any of the opposing players, new police blotter info, stuff like that. If you're game, have it ready to go either the day the series starts or the day before since there's a off-day on Monday 29th.
