Break yo’self foo! No, not like the video… like in take a break from fantasy for a few days and just chill. I hate that baseball won’t rid itself of this ridiculous All-Star break. I’m a fantasy player first. Seriously, what do fantasy baseballers get in return? We are left freaking out if our “guy” does well in the home run derby or our ace injuries himself/delays his next start by pitching in the mid summer crapbasket. Can the All-Star game be a bigger joke? I hate that they award the winning league home field advantage in the World Series. I hate having to read headlines about all the online ballot stuffing. Way to go internet… you blew it again. What I hate the most about the break is I get bored. Like a junkie waiting for a fix or a fat kid waiting for dessert, I need my games! I’ve been watching mediocre movies on Netflix and working on some new dance moves. What are you doing for the break?
CATEGORY LEADERS, WEEK 14
* ERA and WHIP are based off 40 innings pitched minimum
Talk about a ho-hum week for our leader board. We recorded the lowest RBI and tied the lowest stolen base totals to date. Oh wait, we had the most saves in a week so far. YAY! Congrats to mustahce for the fine week. Before moving on to the 1st half list below, I wanted to do some shameless plugging. Lately the Big Magoo has been popping up all over these updates. If you are an RCL player I would be hitting him up in his posts for RCL related strategy questions. He is one of the best RCL’ers we have. Since its the break I’m going to put the best weeks of the first half below. For those above and below I tip my cap to you.

The RCL Top-25, All Star Break
This is the best around!… For the season… so far. Do you want to be Daniel Larusso? Then you got to beat all the Cobra Kai’s and win the All Valleys RCL Championship. Word around the office is that the grand prize is Sky jumping out of a cake in your living room and doing a strip tease to the the tune of Moment of Truth by Survivor. The table below contains the rank, team name, league name, RCL points, League Index and League Points.

We should have a prize for being in first at the break. Some fun way of rewarding them for being the best for half the year. Now what would be a good half prize? I got it, what about a half shirt? Mesh is optional. I’ve done so much talking about the top this year that I thought it would be nice to include the top 25. Yes, from time to time I am capable of nice things. Our top three are still fighting it out as Arizona is holding the top spot for another week. Soler Powered is really coming on strong jumping over Nick the Dick into 4th. Great job Soler. Since your monster week you have been climbing the ranks like a mofo. From 6th place all the way down to 19th it’s anyone’s ballgame. Most of these teams have graced the top ten at some point this year. Hey look who is in 19th. It’s none other than our fantasy master lothario, the ayatollah of mustachola, the slayer of cougs and bad projections, Mr. Grey Albright (he seriously e-mails me these hype plugs). It’s pretty friggin awesome if you made the list. What would you guys…and girls think if I did a top 20 the rest of the way? It’s such a tight battle that I think we should do it. I say we because I am just a conduit of the numbers and the great behind the scenes work that Vin Wins! and Rudy do. Thanks you two.
