[FreeCandy44]

Hey yo! I....will take....tonight.

[Rocco]

So when's our fearless leader going to set the playoff rotation?

[FreeCandy44]

I can literally only do game 2 Saturday night due to work. That is if im worthy. ;)

[Crankshaft]

...am I the fearless leader?

[slappybrown]

Hello Crankshaft,

Thank you your application for Playoff GDT Regional Manager. You have won this "position"? I have been appointed your "Let Us Go Pens" assistant to the regional manager. Thus far, the following "posters" have indicated a desire to participate.

"Shaddynutz05" - This gentelman's "user" "name" is profane in and of itself. I suggesting barring him from viewing Penguins matches.
Rocco
FreeCandy44 - This person demands certain games. Please advise.
Beveridge. This "poster" appears to be a likeable chap.
Slappybrown - I like him.
Crankshaft - This is you (you are this poster on the Let Us Go Pens internet messaging bulletin board).

Please set the lineup.

Best,
Slappybrown

Regular Season Standings

[Crankshaft]

Based off of this season's results, both Rocco and Free Candy have regular season wins against Columbus, with FreeCandy leading the way with two wins against them.

If it pleases the masses, I anoint Rocco the GDT starter for game one and then FreeCandy the GDT starter for game 2.

[slappybrown]

So let it be written, so let it be done.

Let us go to the posters "Shaddballs09" and "Beveridge" [sic] for their reactions on being passed over.

So let it be written, so let it be done.

Let us go to the posters "Shaddballs09" and "Beveridge" [sic] for their reactions on being passed over.

Beveridge shall be looked upon later in the series, as he also won against the Jackets this season. However, until after tax season, he will be on the PUP list.

[Rocco]

While I appreciate the honor, if Beveridge wants Game 1 he can have it. He's had a fantastic year and has earned the #1 starter spot. I can take Game 3 or 4.

[Crankshaft]

Rocco, you're our AJ Burnett. You're the grizzled vet. You aren't the most talented. However, you have fire. Your attitude will set the pace for the entire series.

Then, later on in the playoffs, I'll go to my Gerrit Cole and you can go sulk in the corner.

[Rocco]

What's this "not the most talented" ****? No matter how many games I win I still get disrespected. Guess I have to take Game 1 then. I intend to disappoint all the sick people who enjoy it when I lose games like I've been doing for years.

[FreeCandy44]

Eww...I hope that doesnt make me Charlie Morton. But yep....game 2 is mine.

[columbia]

Burnett? I thought the Pennsylvania Rebellion signed Rocco?
What's going on here?

[Rocco]

Eww...I hope that doesnt make me Charlie Morton. But yep....game 2 is mine.

You're Volquez. Shaf is Jeff Locke. The dearly departed Kicksave is Jonathan Sanchez.

[FreeCandy44]

Aww :(

[Beveridge]

I'll take game 3 (invasion game 1) of the series. Rocco can get the postseason started right.

[Crankshaft]

OK, the first 3 games are set then. Let's not set any other GDT starters until we see how the first few games go.

[shafnutz05]

I'll have to remember to volunteer for more games next year against middling pissant potential wild card teams :pop:

[Crankshaft]

Get your **** together today, Rocco.

[FreeCandy44]

I'll have to remember to volunteer for more games next year against middling pissant potential wild card teams :pop:

Wah

[Crankshaft]

Good job, AJ...
