The real bug is there's too many Pat's in that list.

Hmmmmmm.... that's ahhhh... pretty out of balance.

There was a bug in OOTP 2006 where it created a lot of players named "Joe Unknown". I think we probably changed the last name but not the first.

This is not the direction I expected this thread to go.

I'd like to see a middle infielder win a Gold Glove over 35.

The over 35s are in the easier positions or the positions where a specialist will last forever.

Catchers that play defense usually last a long time in online leagues. Most people like a defensive backup catcher with experience.

Corner outfielders? Come on. If a guy is 35 or older and playing in a corner outfield position, chances are, it's becaue he can play D. No one is putting an unathletic old guy out there unless their offense is so spectacular it outweights the negatives of their poor defense.

When something doesn't make sense...blame religion.

[Jistic]

Why do you think they make their women cover themselves up. Those guys are the biggest pussies I've ever seen. They must have small tools.

[Pat]

That's why I never understood the whole Martyr thing for terrorists. They always use the 'you will be rewarded with 72 virgins for all eternity'. That's sounds nice in theory, but can you imagine an eternity of "Easy! Watch the teeth!"

And 72 chicks you can't get rid of.

[Clay]

Good shit.

Though... no one likes a BJ that's a Sabertooth.

Wa-hoo we're on a list!

Batavia and Morgantown were easy. The DL expansion teams have made it, the IL expansion teams have not. If anyone knows if Virginia has made the playoffs or not it's me. Syracuse and Pawtucket left me with some hesitation...but the only other team I even briefly considered was Los Alamos...but they broke that streak last year.
