“In the spring of 1917, when Doctor Richard Diver first arrived in Zurich, he was twenty-six years old, a fine age for a man, indeed the very acme of bachelorhood… Most of us have a favorite, a heroic period, in our lives and that was Dick Diver’s.”

2013 Season Total Picks

Second go around messing with these. Went 17-13 last season but didn’t factor in the odds so I don’t know how I would have done had I actually been betting.

I clearly think highly of the NL East…

Not a day goes by that I don’t think about Cup-Stacking Guy and His Enthusiastic Friend in the bottom of the 19th at Turner Field.

Never forget.

2012 Final Season Totals Results

17-13

I had 8 teams with a margin of victory/defeat of 3 or less wins. Four resulted in losses, and four resulted in victories. Three of those losses (Angels, Mets, & Cardinals) only needed one game to go in a different direction. I only had 1 victory with no room to spare (Brewers).

Thanks for the memories, Rockies.

The Laughing Man

“He walked cautiously over to home plate, where the Braves and the Warriors, the two Comanche teams, were waiting, and looked at me. I was captain of the Warriors. He mentioned the name of my regular center fielder, who was home sick, and suggested that Mary Hudson take his place. I said I didn’t need a center fielder. The Chief asked me what the hell did I mean I didn’t need a center fielder. I was shocked. It was the first time I had heard the Chief swear. What’s more, I could feel Mary Hudson smiling at me. For poise, I picked up a stone and threw it at a tree.

“We took the field first. No business went out to center field the first inning. From my position on first base, I glanced behind me now and then. Each time I did, Mary Hudson waved gaily to me. She was wearing a catcher’s mitt, her own adamant choice. It was a horrible sight.

“Mary Hudson batted ninth on the Warriors’ lineup. When I informed her of this arrangement, she made a little face and said, “Well, hurry up, then.” And as a matter of fact we did seem to hurry up. She got to bat in the first inning. She took off her beaver coat - and her catcher’s mitt - for the occasion and advanced to the plate in a dark-brown dress. When I gave her a bat, she asked me why it was so heavy. The Chief left his umpire’s position behind the pitcher and came forward anxiously. He told Mary Hudson to rest the end of her bat on her right shoulder. “I am,” she said. He told her not to choke the bat too tightly. “I’m not,” she said. He told her to keep her eye right on the ball. “I will,” she said. “Get outa the way.” She swung mightily at the first ball pitched to her and hit it over the left fielder’s head. It was good for an ordinary double, but Mary Hudson got to third on it - standing up.

“When my astonishment had worn off, and then my awe, and then my delight, I looked over at the Chief. He didn’t so much seem to be standing behind the pitcher as floating over him. He was a completely happy man. Over on third base, Mary Hudson waved to me. I waved back. I couldn’t have stopped myself, even if I’d wanted to. Her stickwork aside, she happened to be a girl who knew how to wave to somebody from third base.”

-J.D. Salinger, excerpt from “The Laughing Man”
