I don't like it

10:32 pm...

As I went to check the final ST standings, I see that the board has been prepared for the regular season to start.

The AL West all stacked nice and neat in alphabetical order(city of origin) with records of 0-0.

Blez, call me old-fashioned, but I don't like it. I get bad vibes seeing Anahiem over the A's without having done anything to earn it.

This is an A's site and there is no need to be politically correct. It's bad mojo, almost as if a prediction(allthough I know you would never!).

Please fix it, for I fear the wrath of the baseball gods closing in!

Anaheim, Rather than Los Angeles
Force,

Given the slant of the standings to be ordered alphabetically, one cannot fault Blez for putting Oakland in second position.

Additionally, he should be commended for listing Anaheim, rather than Los Angeles, for if he did, the order would read... L O S T, for Los Angeles, Oakland, Seattle and Texas, respectively, and that in itself would be an unfair burden on the division.

Should Blez be in any way responsible for said standings, it could be suggested The A's be listed first, as A's, followed by Angels, Mariners and Rangers.

L O S T
I love that f-ing show.

Blez knows I'm just busting his hump.

Good times indeed.

Force...that's so funny
I thought of you when I was doing it last night.  Weird.

But the truth is that I went by last year's finish, not by alphabetical order.

I looked at it as jinxing them if I put them over Anaheim.  Exactly the opposite.

My main man, yeah
A Jedi must tread carefully as to not create an unbalance or disturbance in the Force...

jeez
the standings are going to change today.  Be patient... you're pacing like an expectant father.  

In my opinion, Blez would have jinxed us if he didn't do it based on last years standings.
