It’s November…. it’s a chilly 75 degrees outside, and lot of us are a little bored to tears….

So, how about a game of Dice Baseball?

Rules, Rules, Rules….

Bullwinkle rolls the dice:
Single = double-1, 9, 10 (6 + 4)
Double = double-2
Triple = double-3, followed by extra roll-odd
Home run = double-4
Walk = double-5
Double play = double-6, if one or more runners on base. (See special rule,
below.)
Out = everything else. (i.e., including double-6 if no one on base.)
General rule: runners advance same number of bases as batter. I.e., 0 if
batter out; 1 if single, 2 if double, 3 if triple, 1 if forced by a walk.
Double play results: The batter is always out. More specifically:
Runners on 1st and 2nd: Out at 2nd and 1st, runner to third.
Runners on 1st and 3rd: Out at 2nd and 1st, runner scores.
Runners on 2nd and 3rd: Fly out, runner out at home, runner to 3rd.
Bases loaded: Out at home and 1st.

If you would like add’l rules to be inserted, post prior to start of game, we will discuss, I can be bribed and maybe we can work som’in, somi’in out. (ie: bean ball roll, or maybe a steal roll)

Bullwinkle is the commissioner and has final say in all player disputes, Bullwinkle must approve all trades. Bullwinkle may at anytime request blood and urine samples and each player is responsible for what is put into his/her own screen name. Bullwinkle can ban players for life or maybe one AB. Bullwinkle will not tolerate anyone tossing equipment and kicking my water cooler (yes….itsinthegame I’m talking to you.) Bullwinkle likes lively discourse, but no nasty comments regarding the shape/size of one’s snout or lack of a quality education. Bullwinkle will have no Yo Momma jokes about my Momma, but you may discuss anyone else’s Momma (if funny) Bullwinkle can change the rules at any time, but not the dice…..what is rolled is what is rolled.

If you want to play please post you name and requested number for your jersey below. If you wish to manage a team, also list that comment as well. I need at minimum 18 players. We may or may not have a draft, it depends on interest.

So, post below and let’s play ball!
M to the double O, S to the E.

I'm in - #17 please. Couple of things, how can my agent reach you to discuss terms. I spilled my urine sample, will a sample from my twin brother be OK.

My dad says I must start every game, bat 3rd or 4th and you must play me in any position I want.

I'm a 5 tool player (my dad says so) and I'm looking for a long term contract that you must honor but I can opt out on.

I'm a team leader (which means I get everything first).

I'm also very coachable - I'm able to coach others because I know it all.

Cant wait to get started - Go team!!!!
Actually, that’s not true Beezer, the Bullwinkle has applied for a patent that allows urine samples be transmitted via the computer….

I know that a lot of posters are computer geeks and would have never thought about this, but I did. What most people don’t know is that between the keys on your keyboard there are small receptacles that can and in fact already do hold DNA information that can be analyzed without the end users knowledge. I figured that out one day after a sneezing fit that left my keyboard…… ah …wet. Upon removing the keys from the keyboard for cleaning…(granted two weeks later), I found finger nails, Dr Pepper, and bits for skin along with my now dried up nose phlegm. Right then and there I wrote a program to serendipitously analyze the DNA left behind and sell this information to various Dr Frankenstein's, Life Insurance Companies, and Drug Enforcement Agencies. The Drug Enforcement Agencies required urine samples, so I had to modify my software to accept this sample.

So; if a sample is required, all you have to do is tinkle on your keyboard, and I’ll do the rest!

(As a small reminder to protect you’re identify, please….
PLEASE turn off your cam prior to submitting specimen.)

Bullwinkle,

Your description of the keyboard incident has left me barely willing to touch mine, but nonetheless I'd like to play.

AK took my first choice of #13 (and he deserves it since it was already in his screen name!). So I'll pick #9.

I played 3B in college. I can now cover more territory. Big Grin When standing still. And I can still throw the ball to 1B, if the pitcher is willing to give it a little assist on the way across the infield. Maybe I'd be better in the outfield. Way out. Not sure about hitting. I would like to have a whiffle ball and one of those fat red plastic bats used when it's my turn, please. (Trick play - I'm going to try to get on base with a HBP. Don't tell the other team's pitcher.)

Bullwinkle, is there a place to land my private jet near the stadium. That was part of the contract my agent (BoreUs) sent to you. Included in this agreement was a hangnail specialist to make sure I dont burn myself out for future seasons$$$$. I have put on 20lbs of muscle in the last 5 days just by using hand lotion and training - mostly on the keyboard.

GO me Team

Catcher09: While I appreciate your enthusiasm and your representation by ScoTt BoreUs, I must state that you have not yet been drafted. While you are part of the player pool and your participation is somewhat anticipated, you or your agent and I will discuss your Lear Landing rights with me later.

I am happy to announce that HSBBDice2006 has signed a contact with Mary Kay Cosmetics hand lotion, and you must use Mary Kay products in the future. Ms. Kay has requested that all uniforms be two shades of pink…. (Bullwinkle nixed that quickly), I have agreed that your jet must be painted pink and she also is requesting you be available to massage her 95 year old coccyx. Your agent and I have agreed to her second request for the financial success of this game.

Now that our major sponsor will be handled by catcher09….we need more players!

Please sign up!

DB2BMom wants in the game and since all three of my numbers (47, 17 & 9) have been taken....I'll go with #1 which my younger son wore for many, many years and it reminds me of him.

I have a plus arm and can thrown on a line so put me in the outfield. Of course it might take a couple of hops and roll a few feet but it will eventually get there. My batting average and bowling average are comparable. Let's see if the scouts have that in their report.

With all due respect Mr King of the Forest - I'm from Georgia and have no idea what that means so I looked it up:

coccyx: A small triangular bone forming the lower extremity of the spinal column in humans, consisting of four ankylosed rudimentary vertebrae

I still have no idea what it means

It's your TAIL BONE.
Forget the tailbone, I'll do the tailgate..Supply dogs and burgers, chips, BYO, gatorade. JBB gets steak!

I don't understand, where is the leadership for this game. Where is Fungo, Infielddad, Deldad, OPP,FrankF, we need your pro experience!
Where's woodman? Where's CD? Where's Bee>, where's rz? Where's TR? Where's OB44? Where's Orlando. How about some newbies, rather rookies?
Remember you need not be present to play. Roll Eyes

Bull Commish,
MN MOM, check and clean your keyboard, you may have a sticky key, we need a correction!
Howube walks up to the fence and checks out the field.

Not Bad. Grass looks a little dead, but hey, it’s November what can you expect.

Grabs her stadium seat and blanket then climbs up on the bleachers to find just the “perfect spot”. Wraps up in her blanket, props her feet up, and waits for the “show” to start. This ought to be a good game.
