I have been to many,many vintage events. Every n.y.s.e event I have been to has been steller to say the least. Nick has been a wonderful t.o and his events are not to be missed! So get ya asses to this one. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll piss your pants at the after party!

Gah! Not enough notice Nick! I don't know if I can make it! I'm going to try my best though, as I can't let my tie for player of the year race slip away!

We are a little more than a week away from the next NYSE event. Who's coming, who's top 8'ing, and who's pulling the whole thing down?
Come on guys, where's the trash talk?

Sadly, I cannot make this, try as I might I could not get the day off. Also with the Nick Coss bus not being available for the trip and my car acting the way it has lately I don't know if I could make it anyway. See you guys in Blue Belll on the 3rd, and I fully intend to make it back to the island for NYSE XI and beyond. (NYSE X is during GP Columbus so I can't make that one either.) |

Sorry to hear that Glackin.
I spoke with Raf Forino, who is also unable to make it.
This means that 2/3 leaders in the PotY race aren't going to be there (I haven't heard from Ashok).
I've heard from a bunch of the local guys and a few of the out of staters, and it looks like we're going to have another good turnout. I hope to see everybody on Saturday...

I'm player of the year. Who needs standings when you have such all stars as James Hangley and I. I'm like that crazy guy that makes the all star ballot not because he's good but because he did like a backflipping catch in centerfield. |

Congrats to Brian Lane for taking this one down with workshops! He beat me in the semis, but I still gave him a ride home. Now that's sportsmanship.
