holy shit! epic collapse by DMB / epic comeback by DD!! congrats to DiamondDallasDave. one for the ages...one for the kids to look to for inspiration.

That was an awesome series. Curse of Mark Prior?
Better luck next year, DMB. OOTP doesn't like three-petes I guess, but I'm sure you'll be back in the playoffs next season.

Cameron Maybin has to have a hidden clutch rating of 500.

Big congrats Dave... it'll be a shame if Maybin didn't win MVP...

[ljshorty89]

Wow. Just like the 2004 ALCS, not only was DMZ up 3 games to 0, but game 3 was a complete blowout. Amazing. Great series guys.

[DiamondDave]

HOLY BEJEEBERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now a WS title in every league I have participated in (and every incarnation of the various leagues)

Started scrolling thru the thread, and thought I was a goner for for sure.... gonna look a bit deeper into it all to see what was good and bad..

But hell of a a series, and thanks to DMB for a great series

[nick]

Cameron Maybin was very good.

[DiamondDave]

Maybin may have been clutch... but (Thanks Nick) Tartamella with a hell of a series 10-25, 2B, HR, SB from a catcher at the bottom of the order...

[albbla2000mu]

congrats david

[Kingdom]

Go Dave-o!

I really wanted to win 3 in a row. I figured if I could win one playoff series next season that be 10+ playoff series in a row, and a record that likely stand the test of TPSL time.

If it had to end I'm glad it was to Dave. Congrats man this was an epic series.

Cubs were up 3-0 obviously.

Game 4: Cubs leading 2-1 in the top of the 9th. Detroit scores 2 runs to win that game 3-2. So being 2 outs from sweeping the series stings.
Game 5: Cubs losing 3-1 in the bottom of the 9th. They score two to tie it, but lose in 12.
Game 6: Cubs up 6-4 in the bottom of the 9th, and the Tigers score 2 again to go to extras. They win it in 12.
Game 7: Prior pitches a gem and the Cubs never had a chance.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a better World Series in sim leagues.

Every playoff series for Dave went the distance. Way to max out your revenue...
