name my team

march is good for 3 things, all of which happen to be converging this weekend. first of all, march madness - the greatest playoff system in all of sports begins tomorrow. secondly, st patricks day in chicago. sure the river was green last weekend, but many a face, my own included, will be green after several hours at my favorite bar Ginger's (we'll be there from 4-? friday - come join us). lastly, and most importantly, it's fantasy baseball time. with both my drafts just 2 weeks away, it's time to really ramp up the preparations.

as many of you know, i finally had a fantasy baseball breakthrough last year, winning two leagues. most importantly, i won my 3-year keeper league in the the third and final year, and now have a banner hanging in my dining room to remind jen what a catch she's got. and by catch i mean dork. anyway, i've entered a new league this year with brand-new make believe friends, and a need for a new name. apparently the name with which i won my keeper league last year is only funny if you know the story behind it. and even if you know the story, apparently it's not funny anyway, i need a new team name. best suggestion by 3/29 wins. there are no rules to this competition, enter as often as you'd like. and for the winner, i shall name you honorary assistant manager of the soon to be champion yet-to-be-named team! does it get any better? i think not.
