Around SBN: Bracketology 2012: Duke Finally Steps Up To The No. 1 Line

The Division Race to Watch this Season


FTALC, it is SSS Part Deux on Yahoooooo!

Yep, we got us a barn burner that will waste more pitchers than Joe West, jack more homers than Pujols, Dunn and Votto, and strike out more than Weaver, Hernandez and Lincecum.

And, they will play better than ever this bunch. Bqcdaaaaawodanbnaaaabc5vdxqkfjhjzetfsw94m2hhzknbvzdxazeyrleaaaacawqkaxgaaaaec2l6zq_medium

The story so far, after Le Jumpe'

Star-divide

A la Keith Jackson:

"The wreckage of division 3 lies behind SacksPackedw/Sox.  Hang Whiffem is preparing to step on the throat of the Fightin Illini and proclaim its dominance over the corpses of Division 2.

But, in the heroic, homeric, epic Division one- It comes down to this, the # 1 team, vs the the # 2 team.  In one corner, the The Drunks, captained by Rhubarb.  Anchored by Ubaldo Jimenez, Joey Votto and Ryan Braun, they prepare to stand toe to toe against the young upstart, the wild crazy insane move making Dr Emilio Lizardo and his LeapinLizzardos!  They are led by Tim Lincecum, Paul Konerko, Chris Carpenter, and Chris Young.

The Drunks have the edge in offense, but LeapinLizzardo's pitching COULD shut them down.  Of course, they have to play 2 other teams before the final week, where they go head to head, mano a mano, toe to toe and ass to mouth! (wait- strike that last one).

Who will win- watch this space for the play by play!

Nice Job Lizzardo!

I can’t believe your team is being led by Chris Young though…78 moves is a lot too.

jury is out..but I appreciate your willingness to wait until the Sox are 7 games out with 6 left to play.

Also the Ghost of Mike Caruso or even the Panthers for that matter could easily overtake us both. haha

thats why its such high drama!

I make a lot of moves I admit, but I like to look for the hot hand and have little patience~ a risky combination
