League of Legends

Legends its been almost 3 whole months since the last League Of Legends post. Teams are settling in, thejoestory has taken his spot right near the top of the overall standings, Tower has been going on and on about how he wins the leagues, and EvulMonkey has made his annual week 1 NFL lineup change followed by 14 weeks of nothingness. That's right legends fall is around the corner, CFB has kicked off and NFL starts this week. Football season is back. Let's dive into the rundown. Baseball Baseball Playoffs have started leaving some legends to ask...we are playing baseball. Yes legends indeed we are quickly winding down another season of Baseball. Eight teams of champions have made it thus far and are battling for the coveted Baseball league bonus modifiers. If you ask Tower the bonus points are in the bag. TJS Prediction : Hits for K's vs Lime in the Coconut championship showdown for all the points. Hits for K's has defeated the Coconuts twice this season and sho

It was a big week across the athletic landscape as several sports and collegiate softball crowned champions. Nadal finished an all-time great run through the French Open, the Penguins won the Stanley Cup, and Lebron ended talk of the Warriors and an undefeated postseason. Meanwhile, Patty took the LOL season lead for all of 36 hours until TJS could finish his 100 hour work week and get back to his computer to “adjust” the scoring. We’re 12 days into the second streak month of the LOL year. I feel a bit like Bob Gibson probably felt in 69 after the whiners got their way and the rules were changed. Luckily enough we’re entering prime Cricket season which, outside of Russian Basketball, is my sweetspot. You guys better get ready for a load of Chris Gayle Hot Takes. Triple Frown We’ve seen six different horses win the six triple crown races since American Pharoah in 2015. While being a borderline sports degenerate is a necessity in the League of Legends, do any of us really care abou

Baseball, the horses, "Playoffs Playoffs" and much more. Like LOL's favorite rapper says "Better late than never, but never late is better", here is this week's edition of the RunDown.  Tower literally tried to kill me yesterday suggesting a 16 mile bike ride, in a seemingly obvious move to take me out before winning back to back to back LOL championships. Didn't work legends, like we say here in LOL you can't coach grit. I am gritting out this blog post with tender loins and tired legs. Horses Would have had about the same luck picking Papanick in the Derby this weekend. His father was a mudder, his mudder was a mudde r. Sloppy course and a wide open field hampered the legends picks this weekend. The only successful legend on the Derby pickem was Gras who went with American Dream to win it all netting him 500 points. Right pocket holds some clues to Gras' success Playoffs, Playoffs Not sure why we are delaying the inevitable Cavs/

Welcome legends to the RunDown May Day 2017 Edition. Commish goes on a boat, First Leg of the Triple Crown, and more in this week's edition of the Run Down Triple Crown We kick off the first leg of the Triple Crown showdown. Early odds are posted on the site. Go pick your horses and get ready for the most exciting 2 minutes of the first weekend in May (assuming your life is pretty boring the first weekend in May). http://www.thejoestory.com/lol/triplecrown Cruisin I am back on dry ground legends. If vacation taught us anything it taught us that I should just leave my baseball team alone. Let my team cruise (get it...yuck yuck) into first place dominance and just stop making moves. Took the family on our first cruise last week. First night of the cruise had me sicker than Noah Syndergaard owners today. Never spewed but first night had me thinking never cruise again. By day 2 it was a lot better and we had a great trip. Enough of that already how about some baseball. Hot S

The Baseball HOT STOVE IS ON FIRE, a new legend emerges, and much more on this weeks' RunDown. New Legend We had a new legend emerge on the scene this week, giving League of Legends a test spin, checking out what it's all about. Everyone extend a warm legend welcome to Josh Dorr, AKA Dorrknob. Coach Dorr seems legit already racking up some points in MLS. Only true legends score points in MLS. Welcome board Josh. This ups our Legend Josh Count to a solid 2. HOT STOVE MOVES OF THE WEEK Legends we haven't seen a HOT STOVE like this in the long storied history of League of Legends Baseball. If it were not for, how should I say it, a Stalinisticish like Transaction Limit of 10 the STOVE would go NORTH KOREAN NUCLEAR. You can translate that how you wish cause the commish doesn't really have a good bead on foreign affairs but the Kim Dong Jong dude is blowing up missles and throwing parades. Ervin Santana SP, picked up by Lime in the Coconut, POW! 32.5 point outin

Horstman Master's Dominance, Tower continues his Yahoo league excellence, Baseball week 1 wrapup, that and more in this week's rundown. The Masters One could argue Horstman wasn't even paying attention to Season 3 League Of Legends. He shut all that noise down with a convincing Masters Championship foursome netting him 1000 fake internet points and 5 minutes of League of Legend fame. The winning foursome of Hideki Matsuyama, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth, and Justin Rose pulled away from the rest of the field. Horstman scored a 100 point bonus for picking Rose who finished 2nd in the tournament. NHL Champion The only legend who showed up for the NHL draft completes his wire to wire run as NHL leader and champion. Tower basks in the glory of another league championship under his belt. Gras' team started hot in day one of the championship matchup netting 19.20 points (not even sure my team ever scored that many points in one day). Gras continued to build a lead headi

The first official LOL Hot Take Parlay, put us out of our bracket misery, and baseball finally kicks off, this week on the RunDown. Hot Take Parlay In a seemingly unrelated chain of events thejoestory takes the LOL league by scoring on the new Hot Takes Parlay, a new feature he wrote no fewer than 4 days prior to striking it big. Thejoestory quickly points out that 2 other legends hit the parlay as well but we are not buying this whole just a coincidence idea. Unofficially this is the greatest 2 month ascension of the League of Legends standings from worst to first in 2 months. The designation is unofficial due to lack of historical LOL standings data, thus fueling the conspiracy theory fires. The First official Hot Take Parlay was exciting. We selected three BLAZING HOT NBA Takes to kick it off. Spurs vs Thunder, Wizards vs. Jazz, and Rockets vs. Warriors. Some of legend banter back and forth from the epic Spurs vs. Thunder game. March Madness Tonight we end th

The fires are out, the dust has settled, the League of Legends Baseball draft is complete. Chiefs617 shows us how to almost be a basketball champion in 7 weeks, Final few days of streak, and more in this edition of the Run Down. Almost Champion Chiefs617 has had an impressive 7 week stretch in NBA. Ownership changed hands Feb 1st as Sonderman evacuated his post as legend prior to Season 3 starting. From that moment on Josh's Mediocre Team buzz sawed through the competition with an impressive 6 game winning streak including wins against the top 3 teams. His luck ran out this week in the playoffs against Quebec Kids setting the stage for an epic showdown between Tower of Power and Quebec Kids for NBA league champion. The season series is split 1-1 so it should be an epic match up. March Madness Dumpster Fire We have a whole pile of dumpster fire legend brackets. Who will rise above the ashes to take first place? If UNC wins then thejoestory and PattyV will own the top 2 s

Welcome to the League of Legends rundown. A weekly (hopefully) rundown of all the sweet action from the real League of Legends (not that nerdy computer game). Season 3 is well under way with several leagues already started. Baseball Draft This Weekend We are days away from the baseball draft. The Draft Order has been set. Round 1 1. HvuSnMyBball 2. Expos 3. UnderHochevars 4. WarningTrackPower 5. PhilliesPhanInKC 6. Josh's Team 7. PattyV 8. Here s My Doonation 9. Hits for Ks 10. Stump Grinder's 11. Matt's Team 12. Tower of Power Talk about a first pick waste. I doubt HvuSnMyball even shows up for the draft. Trout will spend the summer wasting away on a team out of it by April...actually this seems pretty true to life. Hopefully HvuSnMyBall lands Pujols as well. Results from my first Mock draft sitting in the 4 slot. 1. Kris Bryant (ChC - 1B,3B,OF) 2. Xander Bogaerts (Bos - SS) 3. Freddie Freeman (Atl - 1B) 4. Giancarlo Stanton (Mia - OF)

Legends we are days now from starting Season 3 of THE League of Legends year long Fantasy Sports and Pickem Challenge {queue old school NFL Films Fanfare song}. We kick off season 3 with a set of 🚨🚨🚨 10 BURNING HOT SUPER BOWL TAKES 🚨🚨🚨 . This year we have a 10 bet parlay bonus for the legends to pick all 10 Hot takes correctly. These titans of take selectors will receive 250 point bonus. You will notice our legends list has been trimmed down a bit as we removed some of the anchor legends from the bottom of the list. You may also notice we have trimmed down the LOL game list for season 3. We will use Hot Takes (with Double Down kickers) to make up for some of the games we dropped (example NHL and NBA Playoff pickems). You may also notice that some of your old shortcuts to games may be broken. Go to the main LOL page and then use the menus to make sure you get on the correct pages:  http://www.thejoestory.com/lol Season starts Superbowl Sunday, make sure you get your
