Once in a while... Looks like just you and me Barto

Ran into Ellefritz last night and he made me feel bad for not checking the board...not much to check.

He also has been dying to rip on Cub fans for losing to the Dodgers. At least the Cubs did a number on the water pipes in the locker room.

So who was Gold Glove, MVP, Rookie of the Year etc etc etc? Veto and JP couldn't remember. I thought they said Reese got ROY, Kiel got MVP and Gold Glove? Sound about right? Just curious. Were there any other honors that I'm forgetting?

I took such a deep breath after the night game that I realized I did indeed have a job that takes most of my time! I'll get motivated before too long and update the Web.

I think one thing I'd like to do this off season is to actually get assigned board of director duties. Kiel tells me I need to delegate. That's true. But I also need to know things will get done. I've had a lot of people tell me frankly, "Veto, if you're not doing it, it won't get done." I'd like more for someone to convince me otherwise.

[ellefritz]

What kind of duties are you referring to? Maybe make a list and take volunteers. Priority #1: Have them put a Dr. Gyros out near Ridgewood! Haha!

[barton]

whats up? what needs to be done? where are we starting the season at? when are we goin out for a good time had by all? when does mario hang out with luigi outside of work? all those and more to be answered by matt veto

[bzerull]

If you need anything, I can get nuts done. Remember when I went and got all those awards for the night game? I just don't want to step on anybody's toes. Let me know, I'd be happy to help.

One of the things that needs to be done is someone collecting money for shirt/hat orders. Veto's done it in the past, but has gotten screwed over because guys will order stuff, then either never pay, claim they paid when they didn't pay, or we never see them again. I told him I could do it, but I enjoy posting the stats and doing a story from time-to-time, but those are both real time consuming, so taking on the role of the treasurer is something I'm not real keen on doing, but I can do it if no one wants to.

The reason I would be good at it is cause I'm cheap as hell and won't front money for someone I don't know. So whoever (if anyone does) takes this job, make sure you will actually do it. You also have to be fairly aggressive in getting the money BEFORE the order goes out. Oh, and don't do a half-ass job. I imagine most of the new regulars will be interested in getting at least one shirt, but we've got to throw it out to the new guys, not expect them to ask us about it. You also have to keep on guys to bring money and, hopefully, they eventually will.

If no one wants to do this, I'll give it a shot for a year to see how it goes.

On another note, I'll try to get career stats updated and I'll e-mail them out to the regulars. I updated some of them already.
