Rundown 3/27/2017

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 spots. If Gonzaga wins Lex Luther will go from Legend Laughing stock with zero points to possibly cracking the top 10.

Hey Karnowski when you lose thejoestory is going to win the bracket challenge:

Baseball Draft

As predicted HvuSnMyBball selected Trout number 1 in the draft. No huge surprises in the first few rounds of the draft. However about midway through Kranhold kept picking the exact player thejoestory was targeting, leading to an investigation to determine if Kranhold was hacking yahoo queues of other legends. 

"I don't know what other evidence you need," commented thejoestory in post draft interview "the guy selected 5 of my upcoming picks in a row. It's unheard of. I mean we all know the Cardinals will hack opponents and cheat, its the Cardinal way, but was surprised Hits For Ks would stoop to that kind of low to win." When asked for a comment on the hacking allegation Kranhold replied "Yeah yeah" prompting the investigation. 


Subsequent investigations cleared Kranhold of any wrong doing and thejoestory issued an apology. "I guess it just shows champions pick the same players." replied thejoestory (Back to Back to Back MLB champion). "The pressure to win is high this year, we are all gunning for last year's champion Kranhold. However we shouldn't have started this hacking witch hunt. I apologize to the Hits For Ks organization and ready to put it behind us to start the season."


Streak For Cash

Streak points will be handed out later this week as the March Streak for cash competition comes to a close. Jcomp is in the lead by a wide margin with thejoestory in second and gras currently in third. Kranhold holds a small lead for the win bonus and thejoestoy currently holds the longest streak bonus.

Rundown 4/10/2017

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...

Rundown 6/12/2017 - Jcomp edition

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...
