Hey all, been a long time since I posted on here. Hope everyone is doing well.
No clue if the majority of the people who were in the TC Fantasy Baseball League from last season are even still on this board, but if you are I'm just letting you know I set the league up just now so you should have received an email message asking you to join again. It would have been sent to whatever email address you provided me last year.
All people who participated last year have been re-invited, but if in about two weeks the league is still missing participants I may go ahead and open it up to anyone else who feels like joining. For those of you from last year who do want to play again, please sign up quickly so we can finalize any rule changes, roster changes, etc.
Go Braves.

You got a lotta nerve showing that ugly face around here after all these years
The Mudbutlers are in.
Mr. Sanchez - February 9, 2012
Your mother was a mudder.
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012

Swo12bv - February 10, 2012
Holy hell – you look like the best part of you ran down the crack of your mamma’s ass and ended up as a brown stain on the mattress!
Welcome back, and sign me up…Freeman Costs $1.05 is taking it this year!!!
justincredubil02 - February 9, 2012
This is awkward, but you’re the one person the league voted on not coming back. Sorry!
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
Nah, he can stay
we need filler like that to stay active without being a threat for the title.
Mr. Sanchez - February 12, 2012

If you need any alternates, I could find some room among my usual three or four uncompetitive public leagues. I’d like to be in a league where half the owners don’t disappear for the season once the draft ends.
CMassey - February 9, 2012
I’ll keep you posted.

There was a problem with signing up, emailed you the error message. Praying I don’t get stuck with RehabRejects as a result of not being able to sign up promptly.
CMassey - February 18, 2012
I see you’ve got it squared away, thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

Fantasy question
I was in The Yankees Suck League which was a league from this board last year. Is this the one you’re talking about?
Minnix - February 9, 2012
No.
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
Mother of God… you’re actually here. Wow.
abraves257 - February 9, 2012
almost like a roll away the stone / resurrection moment … or maybe it is (?)

Is it everything you’d thought it be?
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
And then some!

Is that a challenge I smell?
scstrato - February 10, 2012
Oh sorry, didn’t see you there…
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
Yeah, fuck that guy!
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
So what, you expected me to play Pooh to your Christopher Robin? Sorry but if you come here unprepared for war then you better be prepared to hop, skip and whistle your ass right on out of the 100 acre wood, bitch!
scstrato - February 10, 2012

justincredubil02 - February 10, 2012
Still bitter over the tie-breaker I see … Seriously, that was like 3 years ago. Let it go…

Beard sighting
bravesguy311 - February 10, 2012
I believe he was posting under the screen name “ChopMaster” for awhile..
bwellnjonesco - February 10, 2012
Yeah…that was just a cover.
DolphinNation - February 10, 2012
Okay, DolphinNation… I see on Yahoo that we can’t simply “sign up first and ask questions later”. Apparently we have to either create a league or join a league.
So…. based on everything here… and the discussions from Monday or Tuesday… shall we create another league?… or await available slots here?
carpengui - February 10, 2012
Can't you do both?
Mr. Sanchez - February 10, 2012
We could do both, actually!
DolphinNation - February 10, 2012
Well, my concern is in waiting for a slot that never appears… which I what apparently happened to me last year. In any case: I would be perfectly happy to join any league set up here… just need the credentials to sign in.
carpengui - February 10, 2012
Same deal here.
DolphinNation - February 10, 2012
I’ll keep you posted.
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
If you have a slot open...

Have I been missing out on some gems recently?
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
Ah… just the usual, what we believe to be a grown man trolling as a 14 year old… my first memory of him was his fanpost about graduating into teen-hood when he turned 14. And it just got better from there!
abraves257 - February 10, 2012
See signature.
justincredubil02 - February 10, 2012
And mine. Hey I forgot you’re featured in mine…
abraves257 - February 10, 2012
Whoop whoop.
justincredubil02 - February 10, 2012
You really should get out more… well, ‘out’ meaning here. Gets entertaining occasionally.
carpengui - February 11, 2012
Hey friend, got any new bands for me to check out?
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
Pal, not what you asked about, but here is a new version of your theme song.
fandave - February 11, 2012
Hello sir
Your recommendation of “Heavens” was a gem. Skiba really does the right thing. Thanks
Been listening to The Flatliners, Polar Bear Club, Four year strong, The Menzingers, No Trigger, and Hit the Lights, A Wilhem Scream
Definitely looking into, you will find something to enjoy between those guys. Anything new on your end?
bravesguy311 - February 13, 2012
The President of Talking Chop officially throws his hat into the TC Fantasy world..
If you guys need some competition and a real winner, I’d happily join the fantasy baseball TC Ranks… Let me know as I am always down for some fun amongst friends. :-)
Klemson Krash - February 10, 2012
You're not allowed, if only because my sleeper, last round pick that will win me the league this year is....
Mr. Sanchez - February 10, 2012
I dislike you still... ...
Klemson Krash - February 10, 2012
I still love you though
but both the Georgia and the South Carolina degrees on my office wall are just fine with your dislike.
Mr. Sanchez - February 10, 2012
My offices walls are crumbling...
Hence, My Clemson and Embry Riddle Aeronautical University degrees have nothing to say to your Georgia and South Carolina mounted degrees.
Klemson Krash - February 10, 2012
I’ll keep you posted.
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
what is your email address?
Smoltz's Beard - February 18, 2012
If this is the place where we we make known our desires to be considered for the exclusive membership in the genteel country club known as TC fantasy baseball, um… hi.
And if that particular boys’ club fills up, I’m happy to make/run (not like running takes any effort) an additional league, other participants willing, of course.
Ivan the Great - February 10, 2012
I’ll keep you posted.
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
Everyone.
I’m shocked and appalled to see that eight of the twelve teams have already signed back up. Like I said, we’ll wait another week or so for the remaining four, but if they don’t sign up I’ll take first come first serve.
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
So I just realized I told like six people that’d I’d keep them posted, and there’s only four spots left…three is Justin ruins everything and joins. We’ll figure it out though.
Smoltz's Beard - February 10, 2012
As head honcho, shouldn’t you just ban him?
fandave - February 10, 2012 via mobile
I’m definitely in.
justincredubil02 - February 10, 2012
I don’t think I got the email…
justincredubil02 - February 10, 2012
Got in
I just went to my fantasy profile, and an invite was there. Good to go.
justincredubil02 - February 10, 2012
Now you just have to make the draft this year..
bwellnjonesco - February 10, 2012
But, what if I intentionally want to draft 5 Phillies on my team???
justincredubil02 - February 10, 2012
I would consider you an asshole and a scholar.
bwellnjonesco - February 10, 2012
Wiggington, Dontrelle Willis, Polanco, and John Mayberry … and I’ll even throw in Thome. Make it so!
carpengui - February 11, 2012
hahaha, well done sir.
Smoltz's Beard - February 11, 2012
If we get to the “anyone who feels like joining” stage sign me up. Sounds like fun.
GumpBrave - February 11, 2012
this is the most prestigious fantasy baseball league in the world….it fills up quick.
Swo12bv - February 11, 2012
I’ll be playing once again to take all the injured players on draft day and then finish in 9th place as usual.
Scott Coleman - February 12, 2012 via mobile
Aim high, Scott
Attaboy!!
DolphinNation - February 13, 2012
Hell, I’m still stoked I won TC Fantasy Baseball Rd 3.
mvandonsel - February 12, 2012
what have you done for me lately?
Swo12bv - February 12, 2012
Not won, that’s for sure.
mvandonsel - February 13, 2012
if anyone as an open spot..
I would love to be in a league with fellow Braves fans. My email is dkinser86@gmail.com.
dlkinser86 - February 12, 2012
The other fantasy post has a link to another tc league.
Plenty of spots.
tmc5837 - February 17, 2012
I'm back.
Are we doing the keepers as promised last year?
cavebird - February 14, 2012
yahoo! pro league
i just paid $100 for a yahoo pro league but wasn’t assigned a league yet on yahoo…i got the receipt from yahoo and paypal for purchasing the team yet don’t have a league assigned, essentially. any ideas?
BronxBraveFan - February 19, 2012
Problems here.
I tried to rejoin the league and it said my team “Jason and the Bravonauts” had a new owner. Can I get some help here?
cavebird - February 19, 2012
And it would really suck...
…if I lost my team. I kept three minor league types last year and it hurt my depth seriously—-and the point was to have them as good keepers this year. If someone else gets them, that isn’t right. I know I was a bit slow; but I did say I would be back on Feb . 14th as the thread shows. It is tough to get things done right now where I live in New Orleans. (Ash Wednesday is this Wednesday, which means Mardi Gras is Tuesday.)
cavebird - February 19, 2012

I was awarded your team, but I sent an email to the commish stating the problem and you’ll get your team back. I’m pretty sure I can resign and he can send you the link necessary to get you back in.
CMassey - February 20, 2012
I should be able to transfer the team back to cavebird, and then you can take over Dr. Proc if you would like. Give me a second.
Smoltz's Beard - February 20, 2012
Invite sent, get back to me ASAP about whether or not you received it.
Smoltz's Beard - February 20, 2012
First of all, lets chill out with what’s right and what isn’t right. You took the time to respond on this board on the 14th, but then didn’t bother to sign up your team for the next four days on Yahoo? With that being said, I think there’s a way to switch owners…let me get back to you.
Smoltz's Beard - February 20, 2012
It takes literally 20 seconds…
justincredubil02 - February 20, 2012
OK, ok, it's over
Beard is a horrible commish, on that we can all agree. Let’s move on from that common ground and get to the general witty banter we need. Are we full yet? Time to flesh out the detailia.
Mr. Sanchez - February 20, 2012
…hmm.
Anyone in favor of Mr. Sanchez losing all rights to his keepers, automatically being the 12th pick in the draft, and being locked out of the first five rounds?
Smoltz's Beard - February 20, 2012
I'll just take a seat over here
Mr. Sanchez - February 20, 2012
haha
Smoltz's Beard - February 21, 2012
seconded with the addition that we also beat him with a rubber hose
Swo12bv - February 21, 2012
and we nail his dick to something….TC MEME revisted
Swo12bv - February 21, 2012
Can "something"
= Kate Upton? Or Marissa Miller?
Mr. Sanchez - February 21, 2012
Fail
It was drive a rusty nail through the dick, IIRC – not nail the dick to something.
justincredubil02 - February 21, 2012
there there, it’s the effort that counts.
Smoltz's Beard - February 21, 2012
I like my idea better
Mr. Sanchez - February 21, 2012
I was taking this back retro style to a former TC meme…I was hoping someone would catch on, but I guess not.
My bad.
justincredubil02 - February 20, 2012
+1, I got it.
Smoltz's Beard - February 21, 2012
Good man.
We could have certainly used your entertainment ’round these parts over the last few months/years.
justincredubil02 - February 21, 2012
No kidding
Him and bigjoe both. I laid out a premium smack talk above and got nothin! Guess the Beard is greying a bit, huh?
scstrato - February 21, 2012
You gon’ learn today!
justincredubil02 - February 21, 2012
Thanks!
And sorry if my post was overly aggressive, it wasn’t my intention (alcohol related screw ups are also common here this time of year). I know I was a bit tardy and there is no excuse, I run a league myself on Yahoo, and have played in leagues for decades, so I should know better. My frustration was just with my performance last year, and I really should have been kicking myself on being too slow to click the link since I did make a conscious decision to keep my keepers on my roster instead of jettisoning them for better depth with the idea to do better this year.
Again, thanks, and my apologies! Good luck this year!
cavebird - February 20, 2012

justincredubil02 - February 20, 2012

To all who joined this league
We really need to hammer out a few details and though we are getting some very good discussion I agree with Beard that our time is running short. Please go to the site and review the 2 polls and respond with your votes. These polls will be available until this Friday @ 7pm after which we will tally the existing votes and move on. Sorry for the “pushiness” but we need to get these questions answered.
scstrato - February 21, 2012

Smoltz's Beard - February 21, 2012
Polls Closed
We have enough votes to go ahead and close the polls. Thanks for the quick responses guys, I’m sure Beard appreciates it!
scstrato - February 22, 2012
What are the exit polls showing? I want to be the first outlet to call the outcome!
