Ron says with a smile because he successfully lobbied to remove the Landis Curse and is now a candidate for a championship. Ugh.

It's okay. Now Ron will never have a Landis.

And as usual, Aaron smokes me on previous. Nice bits of exposition on each team. I've got half a page on some. *puts bag over face*

Well, like every Media Guide unveiling, I stare confused out my patio door window wondering how I stumbled onto this odd corner of the internet which accepts (loosely) me as one of their own.

Ted, Terada won't sign with me (or wouldn't) and I can't tell if you called me Slouch multiple times on purpose or not.
It was about as bad an offseason I could of had with what I had planned.

Dude, I'm so sorry about the name. I even looked at it when I typed it and was like "that doesn't feel right". Should have followed up on that. I'll see if Ron can fix it. I was pronouncing it in my head correctly though.

It's all good.
I tried to get Terada. He was interested. Then he wasn't. Then I got the email saying he wanted to revisit talks to only see he still wasn't interested.
