Baseballking999 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Aw man this stinks so badly, I was even enjoying this dynasty. You should start another season, maybe 2006. I know how I felt losing the NLCS on 09 the show, with the Mets aganist the Brewers. That lose was very heartbreaking, I had alot of chances to win, expecially when the pitch got overtheown, I accidently hit the button to send back the runners and I was call out on a bad call. Then I coudn't do it anymore and lost. I was very upsect after that lose. Will you keep us updated about the World Series? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rookie_rick Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Hey man, tough defeat. It's always a shame when the season comes to a premature end. Do you think you will do a second season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeRudi26 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Sorry to hear about the season coming to an end, x, but anytime you make it this far, it's still a successful season. Way to hang in there until the end. Definitely keep us updated with how this turns out, and hopefully you'll be back with another presentation soon!

xiberger Posted May 10, 2009 Author Share Posted May 10, 2009 Thanks for trying to cheer me up, guys! This has now been the second time that I've lost the NLCS. In my Golden Boys dynasty, however, the games weren't as close as this time. If you take a look at my series against the Phillies, you'll see that three of their victories were comeback wins and all of them have been close. My bullpen was stellar all season long, but in this series the relievers just couldn't handle the pressure. It also seemed that everytime I had caught a break, Philadelphia came up with big hits when they needed it. Still, they deserve to go to the World Series because they've shown a tremendous amount of team morale. We'll see if they can go the distance, just like the 2009 Phillies did this year. I'm going to keep you posted about the outcome of the World Series and all the season awards. As I've said before, I'm not sure yet if I'm going to continue with this dynasty. I had a blast presenting my 171 games, but I really need a break right now. I might pick this dynasty up again when I feel like it. It's not going to be in the nearer future, though.

xiberger Posted May 10, 2009 Author Share Posted May 10, 2009 The matchup for the 2005 World Series is set: Too bad, I would have loved to meet the Yankees in the WS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhurst99 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Too bad about the loss. Just like the real Braves, big regular season but no World Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleChange11 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 There is no joy in Mudville ... Much respect to you for playing it with a negative result. I wonder how many folks would have played the game over, so they could at least make it to the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braves45 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 All I can really say is that you did a great job, and I enjoyed keeping up with the progress, even though it ended so soon they at least made it one round deeper then they actually did in '05, and I'll say it again great job.

Mathew Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 This has been great to keep up with. I'm thinking of starting my own but it seems like a lot of work. I'm not sure I could track the stats correctly and produce the graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SESbb30 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 BOOOOOOOOOO! you obviously rigged the world series are you gonna do another season? and this was my second favorite dynasty on here, behind joe rudy's cubs dynasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiberger Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 The Phillies really showed nerves of steel during this postseason. They beat the Padres in the NLDS 3-2 (rallying for the win in the ninth inning of Game 5 against San Diego closer Trevor Hoffman), topped my Braves in the NLCS (after trailing 0-2) and also won the World Series in seven games against the Yankees. Much respect to Charlie Manuel and his boys! Slugger Jim Thome was named World Series MVP. Here are his playoff stats: And here's the picture all the Philly fans following this thread have been waiting to see: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xiberger Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 Well, I fell short in the postseason, but at least of my best players in the regualar season got what they deserved. Infielder Pete Orr (.327 AVG) takes home the Rookie of the Year Award, while closer Danny Kolb (47 saves, lead the Majors) was named Rolaids Relief Man of the Year.

xiberger Posted May 16, 2009 Author Share Posted May 16, 2009 Two more awards for my Braves. Adam LaRoche played a perfect season at first base (1.000 Pct), while Andruw Jones (18 assists) continued his amazing run by winning his eighth straight Gold Glove.
