2007 Game Thread Starters

[Derwood]

For the record, bhogg went 2-1, for a .667 winning percentage.

 

1 game cant count tho. We had scrubs out there on the field for most of the game.

 

Bhogg gets in just cause he's TGTP (the game thread pimp)

 

he is, but i'd vote Southpaw to start

[Andy]

I vote we go Southpaw for Game 1, Derwood for Game 2, Cubbies75 in Game 3, and UMFan83 in Game 4. If we are in a situation where a loss eliminates us, bhogg gets an emergency start.

I'd go for this, only i'd also give Bhogg the nod in any game that would let us clinch.

[bhogg]

I might be better off with a late 1st round start.

 

I'm going to Orlando on Wednesday and won't be back until Monday night. That might actually screw me out of the whole shebang.

 

All I could do is put something together for game 1.

you're on the same schedule i was when i was rolling (going to Orlando that is). staying at the Marriott Grande Vista by any chance? :lol:

[David]

so yeah, can we set up a Game Thread rotation for the post season?

 

Is it safe to use bhogg...we did lose today.

 

I think we should, obviously, go with the guys who had the best records in the regular season. The list looks something like this:

 

Playoff Options:

-Bhogg (obvious)

-UMFan (8-3)

-Southpaw19 (7-1)

-soccer10K (7-3)

-Flames24Rulz (6-4)

-Cubbies75 (4-1)

 

People who should not be allowed within the first five posts of the thread:

-CT Cubs Fan (0-5)

-Vance the Cubs Fan (0-3)

 

Dude, I'm so getting the shaft here. 7-2 suckas...

 

Second best after southpaw (I think). Come on now.

i knew we missed someone. I've added you to the list

[Derwood]

Best by winning%:

 

-Southpaw18 (.875)

-Derwood (.800)

-Cubbies75 (.800)

-davhern (.777)

-UMFan (.727)

-soccer10k (.700)

-bhogg (.667 in 3 games)

-Flames24Rulz (.600)

 

 

so alter your rotation accordingly

 

 

I would go:

 

Southpaw19

davhern

Derwood

Cubbies75

UMFan83

soccer10k

[David]

Sweet! I would've been crushed if I didn't get to start a postseason game thread. :P

[David]

Actually, as #2, I can safely say I'd be happy to never ever start a playoff game thread. At least in 2007.

[Derwood]

the question is, who has final say here? Laura?

Nah. We're driving to Jackson MS Wed and spending the night there. We fly to Orlando on Thursday morning and will be immediately shipped to the Disney World Gates. We're staying at the Pop Century.

 

This is my wife's belated Anniversary gift --- she was 8 1/2 months pregnant for our "Real" anniversary.

 

How as I to know the Cubs would be in the playoffs ? :)

[bhogg]

Also -- no hard feelings on my part if I'm left out.

 

I was just at the right place at the right time with the right slump buster picture :)

[ctcf]

Should a poll be made?

[E.J.]

I'm like 1-4 in gamethread starts. I think you should start me since I'm due. :lol:

[soccer10k]

It would be cool to start one but I wouldn't mind seeing a 3 or 4 poster rotation either like the Cubs will be using in the playoffs.

[Derwood]

good point.....are we gonna go with "starter keeps going as long as he/she wins" or "rotate each game"?

[E.J.]

Have to let the starter keep going if they keep winning. Why mess with winning ways?

true. then i'd have no problem never starting this post season :)

[Laura]

Since we have several qualifiers, total wins is going to be the deciding factor. It also credits people who were able to start a number of game threads, which I for one appreciated.

 

7 wins minimum gives us a playoff rotation of

 

Southpaw (7-1)

Davhern (7-2)

UMFan83 (8-3)

Soccer10K (7-3)

 

BHogg will be recharging his mojo in Disneyland and on call for any game threads startin' needs.

[bhogg]

vets only!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ctcf]

Can this get figured out soon!?

 

I NEED A FREAKIN GAME THREAD TO BROWSE AT WORK THIS WEEK PEOPLE!

I still think we should rotate regardless of W/L, but either way will work as long as we get a bunch of threads out of it. :)

[E.J.]

Southpaw should be game 1 starter and should keep going if the Cubs win.

[Laura]

I've PM'd Southpaw and asked him to start the Game 1 thread.

 

I think we should stick with the established format and have the winning thread person continue to start.
