Elster88 Apr 03 2007 08:50 PM

I'll take the Brewers.

metirish Apr 03 2007 08:52 PM

I'll take the Dodgers...we have two trips there this season....I might be there for the July trip.

Gwreck Apr 03 2007 08:52 PM

I already took the Phillies the last time we did the assignments for 2007, so I'll just take them again.

I'll take Pirates, unless someone else has an attachment to them. Otherwise, I'll just go with Cincinnati. Edit: Oh, there was an older thread. Well, I'll do something. No specific wants, then. Whatever is available.

Rockin' Doc Apr 03 2007 08:57 PM

I'm pretty sure I took the first Braves series.

TransMonk Apr 03 2007 09:15 PM

I totally had the Brewers in the original thread. You want to split Elster?

metirish Apr 03 2007 09:17 PM

If somone else had the Dodgers then my bad...I'll take another..I'm thinking Seo might have them.

Rockin' Doc Apr 03 2007 09:17 PM

Anyone know where the original thread is hiding? I searched unsuccessfully for it.

The thread was prematurely archived, I believe. http://www.getalifealready.com/cpf/archives/f1_t5699.shtml [u:e68f0f75f1]Combining the two threads here, we have:[/u:e68f0f75f1] Phillies - Gwreck Marlins - Seawolf17 Nationals (first series) - EdgyDC Braves (first two April series) - Rockin' Doc Brewers - TransMonk Cubs - KC Pirates - GYC Reds - Astros - Cardinals - Rockies - OlerudOwned Giants - SteveJRogers Dodgers - A Boy Named Seo DBacks - Padres - Oakland - DocTee Twins - Tigers - MFYs - Sharpie asked for the Giants but I think SteveJRogers claimed it first in the old thread. Elster, metirish, you want to grab one of the other teams that's left?

Sorry, I saw that thread and thought it was just another poll by SJR that annoyed everyone. I didn't scroll down far enough to see that there were assignments in it as well. My mistake. This of course is another reason why it is important for everyone to take ownership of threads they want to preserve by a) keeping them active, b) bumping them, and/or c) letting me know you don't want it archived by posting a message and/or pm'ing me. It's all very simple. I've mentioned this many times before but (except for Scarlett Knight) no one ever does this, thus I have little sympathy for people who bitch after the fact.

Gwreck, you're up. Interestng developments Philly-way. Manuel is a native of the Virginia Tech area, they have Freddy Garcia debuting, and are the third team in a row trying to squeeze J.D. Durbin through waivers.

I tried my best to get my assignment in on time, but alas I didn't get it done util the Mets were preparing to bat in the bottom of the first inning.

This means several things: 1) My copy of the schedule - the multi-colored one that I cut out of the Sunday Newsday Sports Section from the day the season that's currently hanging in my kitchen and from which I created the above grid - is wrong 2) That we're playing three series against the Dodgers this year - two of them in La-La-land 3) That ABNS should do the Dodger preview for those dates, while CF grabs another one ... say the Padres in July? 4) That we'll be playing intRA-league that week when most everyone else is playing intER-legue 5) That ABNS needs to somehow acknowledge the CPF from the field at Chavez Ravine ]I don't see time opening up for a second installment on the Nats in the next day and a half. Anybody want to expand on my first? Certainly not when there are Psychodelic Furs polls that need posting.

Atlanta is covered in smoke,just so you know... ] Smoke from wildfires covers Atlanta By MIKE MORRIS The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Published on: 05/22/07 For the second time in less than a week, smoke from the South Georgia wildfires was blowing into metro Atlanta on Tuesday. While the smoky conditions weren't covering as wide an area of North Georgia as last Wednesday, the smoke concentrations were nearly twice as high, according to the state Environmental Protection Division. Susan Zimmer-Dauphinee, manager of the EPD's air monitoring program, said hourly soot readings in McDonough reached 364 micrograms per cubic meter. Last Wednesday, the highest reading was 188 in Walton County. She said fewer of the EPD's North Georgia monitoring stations were picking up the high levels of soot Tuesday morning. High levels were measured Tuesday in McDonough, near downtown Atlanta and in Gwinnett County. Last week, the smoke also affected the Athens and Augusta areas. The smoke, from fires about 250 miles away, began moving into metro Atlanta between 4 and 5 a.m., reducing visibility at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport from 10 miles at 4 a.m. to only 3 miles an hour later. The airport reported visibility of just 1.5 miles at 7, 8 and 9 a.m. By 10 a.m., the visibility had improved slightly to 2 miles. Forecasters at the National Weather Service said southeasterly winds sent the smoke over metro Atlanta, and a low-level inversion - where a layer of warmer air was on top of cooler air at the surface - pushed the smoke to ground-level. The Weather Service said warming temperatures later in the morning, along with a shift in winds, should help dissipate the smoke.

btw, I grabbed the Astros even though I already have two because I think they were left off the orignial claim sheet and no one ask for them specifically. If someone who either doesn't have a team and wants in on this, or maybe someone who wants a second, step on up. If not, I'll do 'em ... no biggie.

i dont know the dodgers but i just saw this on cbssportsline ]News: David Wells is coming back to a pennant race with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Wells and the Dodgers agreed to a contract Friday, and the big lefty plans to make his first start for Los Angeles on Sunday night against the Mets in New York. The 44-year-old Wells was designated for assignment by his hometown San Diego Padres on Aug. 9 and placed on release waivers four days later. He cleared waivers last Thursday and became a free agent. "David's excited to have an opportunity to continue his career with a team that has such a storied history," Wells' agent, Gregg Clifton, said Thursday. "He's excited to help any way he can to get the Dodgers back to the playoffs."
