List of Things You May Not Remember, About Vigo

Vigo was a sadistic tyrant of Carpathia (Romania)
Self-described as the “Scourge of Carpathia” and “the Sorrow of Moldavia”
Known Alias: “Vigo the Despised"
Not well-loved by his subjects
Expert in sorcery and black magic
Vigo enjoyed an unnaturally long life
Cause of death: he was poisoned, stabbed, shot, hanged, stretched, disemboweled, drawn and quartered by his own people.

New Stunning Contest!

New idea for you, the Loyal - a Stunning contest to be held each week.

Since I have given up on my beloved Mutts this year, I need another reason to watch ballgames. So starting today, I am initiating the Stunning Runs contest.

Each Monday, you select the team you think will have the most runs for the next 7 days (Monday-Sunday) - Points will be given, based on runs accumulated for your selected team.

Rules:
1. You can only select a team ONCE during the season. i.e. Once you use 'em, you cant use 'em again.
2. Scoring: 3points for 1st place, 2 points for 2nd, 1 point for second to last
3. Whoever comes in last each week, has their total points erased to zero
4. Entries must be made in the comments section each Monday BEFORE the first pitch of the day.
5. The MLB.com stats page will be used, for the official scoring.
6. In the event of a tie, I will arbitrarily decide the winner based on who I like more.
7. A team can be selected by more than one team, on any given week.

Winner gets a prize. Said prize is on my desk right now. I can't wait to put this prize in someones hands.

First selections due on Monday by 7pm EST

Bite me,
stunner
