beeHive Baseball96 Pool Final Standings

We have a WINNER!!!

Geoff MacDonald has attained the pinnacle of baseball pool success and justly receives a ROGUE PUCK (TM) indicating total baseball pool supremecy. The ROGUE PUCK (TM) will no doubt be cherished not only by Geoff, but by his children, his children's children, his great grandchildren, and his great grandchildren's children. By the time his great, great grandchildren have kids, probably someone will have lost it so they won't be able to cherish it. Tough - they should have been more careful with it in the first place.

Here's a quote from the winner:

Greetings,
The fall is the time of year when we look back at the work we've done, and wonder whether it was really worth it. The pool was a struggle for all of us, and I'd like to sympathize with those of you who must presently be resonating with the words of Mark Grudzalanek, "It's like it was all for nothing". I mean, defeat normally is hard to swallow. But if I had picked and managed a team in vain, only to learn that a rookie of all people had come out victorious, well, you can imagine the despair I'd feel. However, that is not my lot. I suppose I should thank my team, the Alomars, the Knoblachs, the Gonzaleses. But I think the important thing here is the savvy I displayed in only my first baseball pool season. It has to make you wonder about the value of entering future pools. Do you really want to go through this hearbreak again? Anyway, my thanks to Bill for organizing this fait accompli. I'll see those of you with any resolve left in the hockey pool.

Geoff macDonald, 1996

The Rules

• The pool lasts the duration of the regular season. First prize is bragging rights and a puck - not just any puck, but a beat-up old rogue puck which was shot over the boards by some team and given up for lost!!!
• Standings will be updated automagically each morning about 7am.
• You can make one trade each calendar month starting in November. Basically you trade one player for another in the same group and you only get points for the player while he's in your lineup (you get the idea). You can't accumulate trades - you use it each month or lose it. Just email me your trade along with the point difference between the two players you are trading (old player points minue new player points) based on the displayed stats in the current standings at the time you send the email message. Since the stats are always about a day behind, you'll essentially have one day of hindsight in making your trade. Everyone can take advantage of this though so we're playing even (ie. if you know one guy got 12 points one night, the next day you could trade for him and still get those 12 points). Basically you get (or give up) the points a player gets the previous day.
• The 'Points Adjustment' mentioned in the above stats is simply the sum of the point differences for players involved in trades that have been made. For instance, if you traded a player with 15 points for a player with 5 points, the 'Points Adjustment' would have 10 added to it. This way, in order to find the grand total for your team, we simply need to sum the points for the current players in each of the 14 groups and add the 'Points Adjustment' value... make sense?
• If in the company of another poolster who is trailing you in the standings, you must make some attempt at ribbing or some other form of light bragging in order to magnify your deep understanding and insights into this sport and that you are not leading due to dumb luck. At the same time you might want to point out that your opponent made stupid picks.
• If in the company of another poolster who is ahead of you in the standings, you must make some attempt to clarify why you are trailing (ie. injuries, unproductive linemates, dumb luck on your opponents part, etc). Do not admit that you just made stupid picks.
• If in the company of another poolster who is tied with you in the current standings, you must compliment that person on his/her high level of understanding and overall astute knowledge of the game and point out that dumb luck can be the only possible reason for anyone accumulating more points. At the same time be sure to point out the stupid picks made by the others who are trailing you in the pool.
• Please let me know if you notice any errors in the stats.
• Feel free to rewrite and email me any of the above if you'd like to make the points more clear...
