Congrats!

 

[ironpeddler]

Thanks guys. It was a hard fought win, but we did it as a team through endless hours of hard work & practice.

First off I'd like to thank the big man upstairs, Christopher Columbus, without his divine vision we'd have no cigars on this side of the planet. Ernest Hemingway, for his drunken pursuit of Cuba cultivating quality cigars. Winston Churchill, for inventing one of my favorite size vitolas. Zino Davidoff, for telling Castro to 'go f*ck himself' back in 1990. Hernando Jose Armando del a Piramides for putting a point on one end of a cigar. Stanton Brown, who planted the first tobacco crop along the banks of the Connecticut River Valley. Ernesto Miguel Diego Ortega Louis 'Mapy' Robusto, for creating the perfect sized vitola for a new age of cigar smokers.

And last but not least...I want to thank my hairdresser, who makes gray hair look this good!

GO ASTROS!!!

Shocked seeing LAD in the basement!

Some friends & I were talking about them last weekend. Kind of shocking really. I remember saying to myself during the WS...'this team is going to be dangerous for some time'.

[golfgar]

CONTEST TIME!!!!!

I'm putting up a 5er to the first person to successfully guess the team & day they achieve Second Place. Everyone in the pool contest gets one guess regardless of how many entrees they have in the contest. Your guess has to be made by Monday 6PM, May 21st and be dated before June 10th. Anyone can pick whatever team they want, just don't pick the same team & same day as someone before you...it can be the same team with a different day.

The contest will run until the oldest guess expires before June 10th...should no one win, the prize doubles to a 10er and we pick all over again!

Those who do not make a pick by Monday 6PM will sit out until the next round if no one wins.

I'll keep a running list here...

1) Brickhouse...
2) thinde...LAA May 28
3) Succubus...CLE May 27
4) Drunkfish...
5) Freeby...Pittsburgh Pirates May 24
