0 Subject: Congrats to J, our new Guru Jr

In spite of some last minute off-line lobbying from my mom, my sister, 2 cats and a dog to keep the title for another week, I have decided to pass on the mantle and honor of being Guru Jr to the master and lord of standings and over all all nice guy, J

In a landslide approximately a billion votes for J and a hand full of votes for other noteworthy contributors, including but not limited to azdbacker, philflyboy, Cashmere, VI Devil Rays, Aiko Aiko, the Left Wings, Dr Doom, Chris and Ira, J is hearby officially announced and presented as our newest member to earn the title Guru Jr. Wear it with honor and pride, J. You deserve it.

Richard (a former Guru Jr)

Congratulations, J!

Side note to Texas Flood - If you aren't in the standings, then who has the team ranked #24 in the gurupie standings?

Thanks J, Guru Jr, for all your hard work and especially for the way you handle the call-ups and demotions to AAA.

winmiller, i gave that team to Goat Locker about 3 weeks into the season. i only wanted to play one team this year because of time constraints. my team is ranked a lowly 803 but i do have a nice little stash of PT's and HT's.

I plan on getting back into it as soon as my daughters wedding is over on June 30th:).

by the way Cliff is doing an excellent job. I whish i could catch him, LOL!

I am a very avid fan of baseball and SW. I want to thank all of you guys that make this such a helpful site. So to all that do the dirty number crunching I tip my hat and say thanks.

ROTFLMAO RSF!!!!

Thanks guys for all your votes and praise and such. I enjoy running the standings (when I have a decent computer anyways!) for you guys. This is probably my last season of doing it though, its time for me to pass the torch pretty soon. Anyways, thanks for letting me add some extra letters to my letter!!!!

;)

J, Guru Jr.

Congrats J, I still remember when you let me into the AAA midseason standings 2 years ago, the one with the dots and spaces. My how far the standings have advanced thanks to people like you, Richard, Madman, and any others I don't know about or have left out.

Congrats J, I remember you from the basketball threads, and since I'm not playing baseball I'm not here much, just lurk from time to time. Even then I know about your contributions, and congratulations on a well deserved title.

Nostalgia time, Tim G. I remember those days when we were just working out how to get Excel spreadsheets to read info from the SW website. I also remeber those standings with the .... as filler to try and align columns. What a revolution the use of html tables and fonts has brought to the quality of the listings around here. Thanks for the short trip down memory lane.

Congrats J...well deserved and thanks for the daily standings. The standings really add to the game experience and I think makes us all better players.

Congrats, buddy.

If I may repeat one of my contributions to "Top 10 Signs You're a RotoGurupie":

"You idly think that if you had a son, you'd like him to turn out just like ... J."
