Concerns

A couple of corrections. Easy Ed had the Titans and the Falcons. It does not affect the number of wins/losses but it should be corrected.

Also the commish  has taken some liberties with my quotes from my acceptance ceremony. See the following for example:
"Consistency is paramount," he said. "It's not really very hard, as long as you haven't baked your brain in a golf course in Naples or Nebraska,"

While I made plenty of disparaging (and justified) comments about Naples, I directed no such animosity towards Omaha. Is this the type of journalistic integrity we should expect from the commissioner's office? I should hope not. I request an immediate retraction of said portion of my quotes and an apology from the commissioner's office to both myself and cuz Wayne. I call on the commish to be more careful in the future.

All in all it's good to be back. I hope everyone enjoys themselves.

Bonus points if you get this reference.

Omaha???

The request for more from me is granted.  Thanks Kev!  I had so many great thoughts about what to say, but I'm distracted by the constant reference to Omaha.  Out of all the countries in North America that has to be the worst one! 

Go Pats!

Omaha's Concerns

The league has looked into Cuz Wayne's concerns about the size of the Pics Chart, and suggests the following:

1. Save the graphic (in png form) to your hard drive.
2. Open with a graphics program (like photoshop).
3. Increase the size of the image to whatever makes it readable.
4. Copy that part of the chart and paste it into a new graphics image.
5 .Print the image.
6; Read the pic.

Or,

Use a magnifying glass to read the pic.



Note: The charts are screen shots of a work database chart, so the size of the screen. The central office is using a 15" laptop while in NH. When the central office relocates to Fort Myers, they will be using a 28" screen which will allow for a larger image.

And who knows what it says under Katie's pic?

And why, now into our third season, is the "financial" tab still under construction??

These are serious deficiencies that need explaining.

Omaha cuz

Congratulations to Patrick for keeping the trophies in the north, where they belong.

Could the Commish possibly find a smaller print for our picks?  I suspect there is some script in the left-hand column, but...

Patrick Receives 2012 League Awards

The Commissioner awarded Patrick the Chappie and the Millie for 2012 Saturday at the Awards Ceremony in Manchester, NH.

In his acceptance speech, Patrick thanked the commissioner for all his hard work and pledged his support for future battles "with the dark forces of Naples and Omaha." He added that "it feels good. Victory is sweet, though not as sweet as the knowledge that I'm this much better than Uncle Kevin."

"I go out there every week, make some plays, and get the most wins I can," he said, explaining his success. "Consistency is paramount," he said. "It's not really very hard, as long as you haven't baked your brain in a golf course in Naples or Nebraska," he added.

Only in his second year, he has two Chappies and a Millie to his credit. "I do what needs to be done," he explained humbly.

  

Patrick's father, Edmund O'Leary, said he was proud of his son. "I am proud of my son for winning both trophies last year," he said, although he was surprised there were two trophies, didn't remember a whole lot about last year, and was dressed in tight fitting jeans and a t-shirt. "He works hard, agonizes over his picks and strategizes each week," he added absently.

Patrick said he would work hard to win both trophies again this year, although he expressed disappointment that there were only two trophies.  "It seems like I should get more," he concluded.
