Hats off to Berliners, as well as to the Daddies and Klein 9, for
making the last few weeks more fun and interesting than I think most of 
us
thought they'd be.? OK.? Time for bed.? Now where's that darn
Prospect Planning, 2008 Ed. ?

There
  is an alternate site for AOL users that has the final stats.? Mark is
   right -?Final Standings are Berliners, Hoosiers, Klein Nine, 
Republicans,
  Bombers.? But it was ridiculously tight for first place.? 93.5 -
  93.0.? ?

Rick thought he needed three things to happen to
  pull out a last second victory.? Who would believe he'd get them all
   and?still wouldn't win!! (GOP passes me in BA, Rick passes Blocker in 
BA,
  and Rick puts up 5!! stolen bases).??What Rick hadn't accounted for
  was Aaron Laffey.? Who's Aaron Laffey, you say.? Mr. Laffey is a 22
   year old rookie who, along with the valient Cleveland bullpen, 
pitched both
   the Cleveland Indians and the Win Ick Ben Ein Berliners to victory.? 
The
   Indians have been grooming Mr. Laffey for the last few years in the 
minor
  league system.? The Berliners?picked him up?out of the free
  agent?pool at 12:00 noon yesterday.??Just goes to show that its
  never over till its over.

My congratuations to Rick on a great
  season.? I expect Rick to be a force to be reckoned with next year as
  well.? To anyone who has second guessed Rick's decision to hold onto
  Curtis Granderson (and I, admittedly was among them), guess again.? 3
   stolen bases on the final day of the season were nearly enough to 
single
  handedly deliver the Damon to Rick.? And rumor has?it that the
   offers for Curtis Granderson weren't exactly the sort you simply 
can't
  refuse.??

And, of course, kudos to Mark Blocker who managed
   to again successfully pull off the Drive for Five.? I don't know how 
he
  does it, but you've got to admit....nobody does it better.

To Mr.
   Kerber - let's meet for lunch.? I want that Damon on my mantle asap 
since
  its definitely going to someone else next year.

Have a great offseason
   everyone.? Given the fact that I'm headed into the draft with two 
dead
  players, I'm already looking to deal.? There's still some interesting
   players on the Berliners roster - starting with a pitcher by the name 
of
  Vasquez.? Any Sox fans out there?

Jeff Winick
2007 USML
  CHAMPION
