    Greetings! I'm fairly new on these boards, so wasn't quite sure how to make this request... MLB's got a contest on called "Beat the Streak" http://www.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/mlb/fantasy/bts/y2005/index.jsp This seems a little less time consuming than fantasy, and they allow leagues to be built. I wasn't sure if NSBB did these sorts of things - there don't really need to be any prizes (from my point of view anyway) - the bragging rights would do... Looks like MLB will keep track of things - we would just have to put the league together. I'd be happy to administer, but didn't want to step on any toes. Thanks, Karen

    As someone from Peoria, we've seen both Cardinal and Cub low-A teams over the last couple of years. I'm not sure if Nathan feels comfortable commenting on the differences he's seen day-to-day, but from the fan perspective, here are a couple of things I noticed: 1) the Cardinals didn't really seem to pay a lot of attention to the players they had in Peoria. I don't remember there being a lot of organizational roving instructors or management that came around all that often. With the Cubs, there were several folks down last year, and several of them multiple times. Maybe they came when the Cards were here and I just never heard about it (or I have a lousy memory) 2) the Cards didn't do a whole lot to make their players all that comfortable. Our Chiefs last year (as Cubs) got a meal after every home game, I think, where as our guys a couple of years ago as Cards had to spend a lot more on food when a homestand was on. Certainly St. Louis has done a decent job bringing (some) talent up through the ranks (Pujols and Molina, for example), but I'm not sure how different their strategy is from the Cubs - getting veteran talent, because they can afford it, and using young talent to trade/compensate for it. Just my 2 cents :) Karen

    Marco - nice work on the spreadsheet - sometimes simpler is easier! Now that everything is set up, is there an easy way of importing the stats automatically, or is this something that needs to be done by hand? I'd be happy to help either way, as even updating this many names by hand won't be too big a deal... Thanks again! Karen

    Hey Nate! We'll be there, but was curious if you were planning on broadcasting the exhibition game the Chiefs are doing with Bradley on 4/4? Figured some of these folks might be interested if you were... :D Thanks, Karen

    Who's your brother or husband? Are you referring to the picture? <----------- that's not the husband or brother, but Sam Fuld from a Chiefs vs Clinton Lumberkings game in May 2005...

    Saw Grant working out with the Daytona folks last week (Saturday the 18th in particular) when we were at Fitch, so I would guess he'll wind up there with Gallagher, Weber, & Estrada... Happy Friday, Karen

    Hi Nate! :D Keith and I just got back from Mesa as well - it was great to see some of the guys from last year and meet a few that will be joining us. Here's my question for you - who will be broadcasting the Chiefs this year? I got my pocket schedule recently and didn't see WOAM advertised as it has been in the past. Are the Chiefs going the FM route as the Rivermen have? See you in a couple of weeks (woo hoo!) Best, Karen
