[USML Announce] The Case Gets Stronger .:. .:.

[Blocker, Mark B.]

Jeff:

  I am disappointed to see more hurtful e-mails from you.  Surely you must have more important and worldly pursuits to occupy your time.  You leave me with no choice but to begin to reveal some of the results of my thorough investigation into your roto practices.  In combing through your garbage, my crack team of investigators unearthed the following snippet from what appears to be a Berliner internal team memo:

"List of Jokes I Can Think Of To Inclue in USML E-mails

1.  Blocker always finishes fifth (not really true, but just keep saying it)
2.  Throw in references to Joey Gathright
3.  Thats all.

Alternate strategy: If pressed, spew babble from Shandler and if attacked, remind people I AM SHANDLER'S LAWYER; that should do it.

Note to self: I've got to come up with some new ones."

  Jeff, it pains me to reveal these personal secrets of your life, but you leave me no choice.  Please, cease and desist in your constant attacks.  Peace.

  -- Sadly in Eighth, Mark B.

	your sardonic e-mails that contain thinly veiled references to the solitary year of the 18 years thus far in which my team finished four places behind the winner.  

PT,
 
I never knew you had it in you.  You really are quite the spin master.  I guess, for you, ties for fifth don't count?  The Bombers finished fifth in 2005 and tied for fifth in 2003 and 2000.  That's THREE times, by my count.  They have finished either in fifth or within one place of fifth for 4 years running.  More impressively the Bombers have finished in fifth or within 2 slots of fifth for 8 years running and for 11 of the past 12 years!!!!  And remember its a "Drive for Five" - just as with Bradlee's annual "Burst for First" it isn't always successful.
 
However, you, my friend, have one hell of a track record.  And one that yours truly will not let you cynically try to spin away from.
 
KR is becomming a more appropriate moniker by the moment.
 
I offer Mark's attempt to deceive the league about his team's performance as Exhibit #3 in my petition.
 
That is all.
