I decided a while back not to renew Tony Fallen because 1) He wasn't that good at his job and 2) He clashed with a number of players, including virtual wlu_lax. Zimmerman I think just wasn't that good either. I'll be hiring new guys for each job during the offseason.

I voted for Cheddz because we like the same music.

I need to go play in the winter leagues and work on control. My K/BB is killing me.

Thanks again Carwash..

now to order a sweet Oats lid.

If anyone's interested, the game is currently on sale for $10 (75% off normal price).

So with 18 votes in, Gunpowder holds a narrow lead over wlu_lax for the Burlington MVP. Get your votes in soon if you haven't yet. Tomorrow morning I'll put up a similar poll for Holland.

I guess handling your staff expertly isn’t popular anymore.

With the votes tallied, Gunpowder edged out wlu_lax to win the Burlington Sports Frogs' Unknown Award as the team MVP for 2018.



New poll up for the Holland side of things.

End the poll now!!!

duff is definitely not going to show up on random message boards to argue that he should be the MVP based on his homers and RBI and that WAR is a bullshit nerd stat.

I almost always vote for the best WAR score. But chicks dig the long ball. Am I right GPJ?

If you can figure out a way to get chicks out of this then by all means pitter patter...

Rams Fanny has a clear lead, but going to bump in case anyone missed it. Had quite a few more votes on the Burlington poll at the same time yesterday...blatant Lake Champlain Coast bias.

If I can brag about imaginary HR's, then I can spin stories about all the imaginary ladies loving the long balls.

A few final updates to wrap things up for this year:

Will do some minor housekeeping with filling staff vacancies, etc., but otherwise that's about it for the season. Thanks everyone for playing and keeping the banter going here. See you next year(?)

Good to see I'm maintaining the same batting average I had in tee ball.

Thanks for the season. And happy birthday!

Absolutely!

I know I still owe (?) you guys a RimWorld update, but will see about continuing this for a new season, if there's interest.

I'd love to se a 2019 OOTP season, but it's really up to you since you're the one making the time commitment.

Agree with Sabo.

Same here.

Yep...same as the others

Will probably cut back a little on the regular updates this season, either less frequently or not as much in the weekly posts, as some of the content was pretty time-consuming to put together. Would still plan to do the website upload with the full detail for those who want to dive deeper.

put me in coach....

I loved it and will take any iteration you provide.
