@ThE sHiT, Thanks! Nice job, first time out. Tough September, or you might have been challenging for first place. Next year!

Thanks for the roundups, and all the hard work Vin. And a huge thanks for setting up Razz Roto 2 last minute. I really enjoyed my first RCL, it was also my first Roto league ever. Finishing 3rd there, 101st overall, was better than i had expected. I really look forward to next year, i will definitely not wait until the last minute to join an RCL. Amazing job once again Vin!

@RandomItalicizedVoice, That’s a great idea. I sent you an e-mail as well.

@Rudy Gamble, I can at least congratulate you and Grey on your CBS AL Auction victory!

Great job there guys in a tough league.

If anyone wants to see the standings there:

@RandomItalicizedVoice, Well – I love the idea and I threw my name in the ring.

@Rudy Gamble, Thanks Rudy – you made me sweat quite a bit down the stretch – as did Tim D, DD and Scott P. I had a blast.

I will also second the kudos for Vin – great job all season long. Obviously getting an undrafted Mike Trout on April 1st was a big difference maker.

I will definitely be back next year to try and defend my title.

@Paulie Allnuts, Thanks, again. That was a great finish. I imagine Chris was devastated and will struggle to regain his fantasy prowess, before slipping into oblivion, finishing his career with a third place finish in RCL 57.

@VinWins, Ha! You had me going there for a second!

@Paulie Allnuts, I’ll be putting all the league numbers in the RCL forum in the next day or 2, and you’ll see how the ECFBL is really the 5th best league (Hint: think alphabetical).

@Paulie Allnuts, Thanks Paulie, glad I could help. Good to have you back, hope all is well.

@Grey, Yeah, I don’t like to be touched. Thanks, though. It’s the thought that counts.

Vin, you did an awesome job, as I have stated above. Thanks for all the help that you have given me during the season. You da Best! Of course, the biggest story in all of Razzball land was that Chad of Copales Charros edged Chris, the living legend, of RetroVertigo, on the last day of the season. Chris was seeking his third consecutive RCL championship, his second with the ECFBL, and his first being with “Ones are GOOD enough?”, rated the second most competitive league in Razzball.

@RandomItalicizedVoice, That is an interesting proposal. I would like to see it go through, and compare your league’s expertise with the ECFBL, which easily outpaced the second most competitive league (One’s are GOOD enough?) by four points, 108 – 104, despite having one manager semi-abandon his team. It would also be interesting to see how Rank Railheads would have done in a considerably more competitive league. In a sense, the REAL champion of this season is Chad Boros, who edged the Living Legend, Chris Hyc, on the least day of the season in the only league that really counts, the ECFBL!

@Grey, What Grey said about VinWins – incredible job, which goes far beyond anything Razzball has had before you appeared on the scene. You also did a great job in editing and posting my articles. Thanks for making this great site that much better.

@MattTruss223, No problem, thanks for reading. Yeah, that was good enough for the Tigers to be Team of the Day.

Thanks Vin for a great season of write-ups and data. I appreciate you sharing my league data so I could really geek out.

Was hoping to finish out in the top 10 overall, but teams I was chasing in my league put up a good last few days. Then I got passed in a category I wasn’t even looking at. Kimchi Tigers had an incredible last day of starters (53.2 innings, 55 Ks, 4 wins, 1.51 ERA and 0.88 WHIP) and passed me in WHIP. Thought I had a shot at 106 and finished with 103. Great fun though, glad I joined this year, thanks again Vin!

@VinWins, Yay! I’m the best at being the worst! Our league index must have helped a lot, so thanks leaguemates!

Congrats Rank Railheads on an unbelievable season! And thanks to Vin and everybody else who commished RCL leagues this year.

I realize nobody probably wants to think about the 2013 season now, but if any of the 2012 RCL league winners are interested in playing in a 2013 RCL Champions League, I will be commishing one next year. Shoot me an email (takecareofyourshoes@gmail.com) telling me you are interested as well as which league you played in this year, and you will go on a list and I will contact the first 11 people who email me next year when RCL signup time arrives. If someone doesn’t reply fairly quickly, I will move on down the list until we have 12 confirmed participants. Should be competitive, and that’s the bottom line for me. So let me know if you are interested.

@DrEasy, Wow, hard on yourself. 118 out of 576 isn’t too bad.

The Fantasy Razzball standings appear to have been updated, if you dare click the link on the left hand side of the page

I really thought I would have figured out this reply system by the end of the season.

Thanks again, Vin! It was my first RCL and it was a lot of fun. Had to get used to the limits settings and so on (or at least that’s my excuse for my 118 finish). Can’t wait now for the Razzball league final standings (I had a lousy last two weeks and am very worried…).

@VinWins, Thanks! Didn’t need those two points, but I like the look of 106 a lot more than 104.

By: VinWins

VinWins — Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:12:57 +0000

@royce!, And congrats to you for winning 2 RCLs! And without even needing those 2 points earned when SG Sox failed to reach 1000 IP.

Thanks to Vin and a congrats to Charley and JungleMike- 119 is quite a ridiculous accomplishment!

I’d also like to thank Lincecum for torpedoing the Schmohawks! Just kidding, Bob. Thanks to you and the others in the Original Recipe League for keeping it all interesting…had the season been a week or so longer, you would have won and all your Lincecum-based woes would have been forgotten.

By: Grey

Grey — Thu, 04 Oct 2012 19:23:58 +0000

Echoing Rudy’s sentiments… Congrats on the win, Charley and JungleMike… I once knew a Jungle Jim, any relation? Drop me an email at info @ razzball.com and I’ll get your details for your winnings… Who’s got a Members Only jacket now?!

VinWins is the cogs on this 18-wheeler that is the RCL and does an incredible job, he should get a big virtual man hug and a totally-straight-third base coach booty pat…

By: VinWins

VinWins — Thu, 04 Oct 2012 19:16:38 +0000

@Michael (or JungleMike), There is a fabulous jacket, but I think you’ll have to share it.

I’m sure we can throw in a little something extra. (And by “we” I mean Grey)
