I remember it being a lot more fun than this... but, then again, I don't remember going 0-4 and having the Jays swept by the last place team, either.

Although a two out, ninth inning, game-tying inside-the-park HR was kind of exciting.

Yeah this will probably be my last baseball tourney for a while.

I'd participate in another hockey one, though.

As much as I enjoyed the hockey one, there wasn't a lot of participation outside of a couple people. I wonder if a draft tournament would get people more involved.

I dont know if I'd do hockey again, the lack of control over the team was frustrating.

Yeah, I think that really hurt people's involvement, too. If we did a draft, we could always try a shorter best-of-seven style tournament instead of having a regular season and playoffs and see how that goes.

I wonder if it's possible just to pick one line. Does it require a full team like baseball does?

Yeah, you need a full team.

brewers will go undeafeated in the second half and win it all.
