i'm going with that for now, though it seems like it just reverts to a normal league post-draft.

i’m using the point system described here. i’m not all that familiar with comparing players to the average replacement player (and in this case cost), but i’m confused why saves and holds are included. i guess even with them, starters are much more valuable than relievers and so it balances the roster numbers a bit.

Oh, they accepted the password an' all...then nothing.

So I hit it with a 4 lb. single jack and it got really cooperative.
Right up to the point where I clicked on the TV coverage, then it played dumb again.

The schedule lists video coverage for the game, and their rules an’ regs don’t allow for any blackouts in the area.

That is, unless you’re a Blankfan…

So it looks like it’s time for the annual “Try to understand the non – English – speaking CSR halfway around the world” part of the program…once my phone payment clears, that is.

How’s the game? I thought it would rain, and transpo is still an issue so I not there.

Interesting
Metropolis is portrayed as one of the largest and wealthiest cities on earth. The co-creator and original artist of Superman, Joe Shuster, modeled the Metropolis skyline after Toronto, where he was born and lived until he was ten. Since then, Metropolis has become a city inspired by Chicago, Cleveland, Toronto, Vancouver, New York City and Los Angeles.

One of the problems with the DC universe is that these fictional cities exist alongside real cities. They sort of bounce around the country depending on the story. For instance, Metropolis is near Gotham City when it’s convenient.
