Rotisserie Rival

Jeff the Philthie One - Our rivalry runs so deep,he once poisoned me at a draft in NYC and we were co-owners of the same team! True story.

Team Motto

As long as I finish higher than Jeff, it was a successful season.

Greatest Live Baseball Memory

Watching Game 3 of 2008 Series at Citizen's Bank

Things I Learned from Rotisserie

1. Never mix fantasy baseball and fantasy football owners.

2. Luck beats smarts every time.

3. There will always be a Cliff Floyd, Domonic Brown, Mark Prior never fulfilling their potential and they will always have a place on my team.

Rotisserie Rival

Joe, Macho Robots!

Fantasy Strategy

Get your fantasy baseball rival drunk at the auction so that he drafts a terrible team! [This is much harder with virtual drafts]

Rotisserie Motto

As long as I finish higher than Joe, it's a successful season.

Greatest Live Baseball Memories

I have been very fortunate having worked around baseball to attend a ton of great games. Some highlights include: the 1999 ASG at Fenway (All-Century Team), 2008 Home Run Derby (Josh Hamilton's performance), 2004 ALCS Red Sox v Yankees. But, my all-time favorite game was Game 5 of the 2008 WS where I got to see Phils clinch the WS with my Dad, uncle and oldest son!

Favorite Rotisserie Memories

1. USA Today weekly MLB stats publications

2. Standings being dropped off in my mailbox each week.

3. Recording roto moves, as commissioner, long hand on a yellow legal pad!

4. Knowing that I've won the BLGL and Joe hasn't!

Biggest Fantasy Regret

Not starting a baseball blog in 1987!
