A new thread so the assignment table is at the top. Admins, perhaps this could be stickified until the table is set. Thanks.

Oh, for some reason my table is starting a waaaay down there. If someone with a clue can help figure out why it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Re: KTE 2010

It's caused by line feeds in your code. You need it to be one big fat block of text.

I fixed it, I think. There appear to be a couple of trailing tags somehow.

Re: KTE 2010

I like to stick to the same team for a whole year and seeing as how both Cubs series look to be still open so I'll take those for now.
If there's holes in the sked I'll grab some more later after everyone else has had a crack ... or taken some crack ... or had their head cracked.

I move that, since nobody really wants to write a Know Thy All-Stars, we do a wikiKTE, where we all contribute a passage on All Stars from the teams we've overed.

Re: KTE 2010

Says the guy whose team is most likely to have one All-Star designee.

Seriously? Sounds like a cool idea, especially if it leads to a bit of dialogue about worthiness, the game, etc. I'm in.

Re: KTE 2010

If Piggies doesn't want the latter D-Backs series, I'll chase some snake backside again.

Also, I'll take the last Mets-Phils series @ CBP in September, too.

And if MGiM wants the D, he's got it. (For the July 5 Reds bit?)

Swan Swan H
Mar 20 2010 06:14 PM
Re: KTE 2010

LWFS, you're in for the second D-Backs series, as well as the final Phils series which, I expect, will detail a Mets squad setting up their post-season rotation, and a Phillies outfit in utter disarray, playing out the string and hoping not to slide past the Nats into fifth place.

Michigan, an offer is on the table - Tigers series for the Reds series. What say you?

Re: KTE 2010

OK, thanks GYC. You're on the board.

We're down to just a few slots left, all late in the season. A great opportunity for you first-time KTE'ers to benefit from the experience of reading a ton of great work by folks who are excellent baseball writers and creating a piece that incorporates your own style and insight. Or you could do what I do and just make up a bunch of snarky stuff and randomly intersperse the names of players on the team you choose. I try to keep the comments about pitchers and hitters segregated, but since I assume people think I know nothing about baseball anyway I don't stress that too much. I was thinking about inserting passages from Penthouse Forum into my piece this time, but then I remembered that Fman did that last year.

It's actually kind of fun, is what I'm saying. Jump in.

So it's down to a couple of Phillies series at this point? I guess I'll take them and finish the board.
