FMJRA 2.0: Youth Gone Wild

— compiled by Wombat-socho As I remarked yesterday, I expect to be back in the groove of daily link posts starting tomorrow, so the FMJRA should be a a tad fatter. The expansion draft in Pete’s 1969 league was yesterday, and I lost Joe Niekro to the Angels, but it could have been worse. Now […]

FMJRA 2.0: Not Long Before The End

 – compiled by Wombat-socho Well, if you waited until now to get your taxes, done, you’re almost out of luck; your chances of finding a tax professional willing to handle your stuff tomorrow are slim and none. I put in something like 120 hours over the last couple of weeks, and have another ten-hour day […]

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 […]
