FMJRA 2.0: My Name Is Ruin

— compiled by Wombat-socho Haven’t had time to do much this week except sleep, eat, do taxes, shave, rinse & repeat. Ten more days until I’m home in Tonopah and mongling links again. Ceterum autem censeo Silicon Valley esse delendam. Rule 5 Monday: The Best Rack In Hollywood? Animal Magnetism A View From The Beach […]

FMJRA 2.0: Shifting Through the Lens

— compiled by Wombat-socho Sorry about the extreme lateness of this post, but it’s been a rough weekend here in the Biggest Little City In The World. My Senators finished the season on the road 60-66, getting swept by the Indians at the Mistake By The Lake before going to Baltimore and taking two out […]

FMJRA 2.0: Burn Witch Burn

— compiled by Wombat-socho Well, I was mistaken about the Senators’ schedule. After taking two out of three from the Yankees, we have three games against the Orioles and three more against the division-leading Injuns before it’s all over. So we have a shot at .500 after all, it seems. As for tax season, there’s […]

FMJRA 2.0: “Don’t Know What I’m Gonna Do”

— compiled by Wombat-socho Well, as the season comes to a close, the Senators are going out with a bang. We beat Pete’s division-leading Pilots two games out of three, and then split two games against the Minnesota MoanersTwins. Already starting to think about which players I’ll need to protect from the expansion draft, and […]

FMJRA 2.0: Jump

— compiled by Wombat-socho It was indeed a good week in Washington for the Senators, as we took two out of three from the division-leading Injuns (we would have won the third game, too, but Sudden Sam McDowell had other ideas) and then swept the Reds in a two-game series. Next up are the AL […]

FMJRA 2.0: Somebody

— compiled by Wombat-socho Not a bad week for the Senators – split two two-game series against the White Sox and Cardinals respectively, so we still have a shot at .500. Not much of a shot, but a shot. Amazing what good starting pitching can achieve. Also, if you’re interested in getting an expansion team […]

FMJRA 2.0: Rainbow In The Dark

— compiled by Wombat-socho Left work last night a little before 8 PM, stopped to refuel in Carson City, stopped again in Yerington for coffee and a latrine break, and then I didn’t stop until I was home in Tonopah around 1 AM this morning. Understandably, I wanted nothing more than to unpack, set up […]

FMJRA 2.0: Burning For You

— compiled by Wombat-socho Not a good week for the home team: split two games with Montreal and then got swept in a two-game series by the White Sox. Things don’t look much better this week, as I have a three-game series at Seattle, which just traded for Dick Allen who’ll hit cleanup behind Pete […]
