    Man, I for sure figured the A's would be off the board by now, after last seasons shenanigans.

    Granted all three teams are in the middle of the pack as far as odds' go. I totally agree Oakland has a good chance of doing something, and Pitts has a great chance of sucking, this season.

    Still, the teams should be picked out of loyalty regardless, I think. I guess there are ashamed Milwaukeeians, Oaklanders, & Pittsburghians lol.

    Either way, any team not picked is disqualified from the winnings. So if one of these three teams is the worst team at the end of the season, then no one wins the beer for being the worst team. And if one of these teams (Oaklnad) wins the World Series, no one gets the beer for the Championship either. So it is kind of important every team in the league gets picked. And the same goes for the divisions.

    Two more weeks to go before I shut it down (March 30th).

    Opening day March 31st 2013:
    Evan vs rtaps

    Has the idea of one person picking 2 teams if no one else claims them been discussed? You're right...it would really suck if no one picked the best or worst. Just throwing it out there....

    Imagine if that person had the ws winner and last place. That'd be one busy delivery man.

    This was brought up last season. Only one team per person; sorry those are the rules. I can't believe no one picked the Brewers yet, on a beer site.

    Alrighty everone, as some of you may know and others will soon find out, Sun mornings is when I update the standings, info, and share my polite & meaningful opinions about the BIF/League. Here is an update on who has who, and which teams are still available.

    Teams Taken:
    Orioles: schteve825
    Red Sox: lokieman
    Yankees: DarthKostrizer
    Rays: RayUFO7
    Blue Jays: thee ehammond1
    White Sox: sholle
    Indians: Stinger80OH
    Tigers: mixed_master7
    Twins: jegross2
    Angels: MrVonZipper
    Mariners: Smurf2055
    Astros: rtaps
    Braves: pschul4
    Marlins: martin123012
    Phillies: gkatsoris
    Nationals: RayOhioFelton
    Cubs: robbiemoy13
    Reds: hopoilcrazy
    Cardinals: homebrew311
    Diamondbacks: dsal89
    Rockies: bigaltemple
    Dodgers: richkrull
    Giants: YaKnowBrady
    Royals: AAxsom
    Rangers: Evan
    Padres: SP23

    Available teams:
    Oakland
    Milwaukee
    and
    Pittsburgh

    On a side note, if one of these teams does not win the World Series or doesn't come in last in the league there is still an oportunity to win some beer, within the division. If your team wins the division, you recieve beer from the middle three teams, and if your team comes in last in the division you recieve beer from said winner of the division. So if anyone is interested in Oakland, Milwaukee or Pittsburgh let me know in the thread or BM me.

    Also, shit talking is very, VERY important in this BIF; so let her rip.
    (Except MrVonZipper, he is ruthlessly brutal...and hilarious at times!!!)

    "Gamechangers, the team that did sooo well in Miami last year."

    But yea, I'm a yanks and rays fan, the east is gonna be rough for a while. I'm excited to see how that plays out, and who gets boxes in that division. Good thing I'm not a gambling man and chose any of them.

    It'll be weird swing the sox in last in the division.

    After much consideration, I figured you can't have the Mets because they are going to come in last this year, and you can't win two times in a row; or I will have to murder the Eagles & Phils. :wink:
