So here it is, the dynasty from north of the border. I've got one game up, and I'm going to be updating game by game, just because I think it allows the reader to have a better relationship with the team, and it keeps things interesting. This does mean it will take a while before the season is completed, but I'm completely determined to do so.
I've got a couple articles up, blah blah blah (most dynasties do); I do encourage people to read them though. I still giggle like a schoolgirl three days after writing that "interesting trio" article. That will be a continued series throughout every new stadium I play in this season.
This forum will be to ask questions about the site or the team or to post some suggestions. You can also leave suggestions in the ratings section, but if you do it here, I can reply to you about it.
And a quick thanks to bibbster who made my banner. It just changes the whole look of the site so thanks again bibby.

If I were you I'd put the link in your sig, so people don't go searching. But I love your writing, it reminds me of Damajackal's, funny but informative.

How I love your sites. They are hilariy-o-so. And the writings great. And one more point, you don't write a ton which is GREAT! I see too many people wanna impress viewers by writing tons, and making it so REPETETIVE. But yours is different, short and nice. Your writing reminds me that, of DB's. Nice Chise, way'ta go!

And honest to god, I credit like 33% of the dynasty's look to you bibby. With that banner, the colours (yes I spell "color" with a 'u'...I am canadian) all flow together and the site is just brightened up.
And the next game will be posted on saturday, latest sunday, probably nothing tomorrow.

Alright finally, game 2 is up after a lengthy weekend delay. Recap/boxscore/homepage/stats/transactions all updated so check it out.
A news story is coming up soon today regarding the startling discovery that some players names were not really correct, and they were just bad guys in masks.
Confused? Don't worry, stay tuned.

Game 3 is now up with an updated standings table, and of course, team stats, and transactions. Also, a fan poll is being conducted. Here is a direct quote from the news story: Anyone who has been following the Toronto Blue Jays know that Frank Catalanatto was expected to the starting left fielder over Reed Johnson. His consistent hitting in the 2004 campaign combined with some a fantastic spring made this choice clear. However, in this young season, Reed Johnson has faced both lefties the Jays have played against. He has 1 HR, 3 RBI's and a .400 batting average over that span, and he also has a stolen base. His high-socked, rugged-style of play has impressed some important people in the front office. Meanwhile, it's not like Frank Catalanatto had a terrible first game himself, going 4 for 4, and picking up 2 RBI's. It is also, what? Game 3 of the season. Is it really time to be shuffling with the lineup, with the Jays above .500? The Toronto Blue Jays organization wishes the fans input on this matter, and invites you to vote with the poll you see below. The poll will remain open until Thursday, September 1st, 2005 at 12:00 PM (real-time). Even if there is one vote or a thousand votes, the Jays will choose the fans' majority choice.

Well, I hope there is still some interest in this dynasty, and when the redesign comes, I will continue...I've been waiting for it, and it looks as though tomorrow we will see it so finally some updates are coming. If anyone cares...

I care, you've almost broken the 10 vote barrier, don't get down about it. Once you hit the top 10, you'll see that hit counter jump, as well as the votes.

(thanks for the rate ASM)
Boom! Game 4 with stats/recaps/transactions is updated. Now a short 158 to go....
And I think everything is fixed as far as redesign fixing goes...except for the old recaps, but I'll get to those.
Leave any comments/questions/complaints here.
