Bo knows throwing it down!

PFFL Week 5 Scoreboard

Tough loss for the Bo Knows this week...

Do you know Bo?

If there's one good thing that the evil four-letter has done, it's the 30 for 30 series.  If you're like me and don't pay for that station, you can watch the compelling documentary about Bo Jackson in its entirety online for free.  I would normally embed such a video in this post, but YouTube has forbidden it.  Instead, please enjoy this 1989 interview of Bo on the Arsenio Hall show before you follow the link above.

Crowning the Champion

This weekend, the Percell Family Baseball League crowned its 2012 champion:


Half of the league was present for the ceremony, well sort of:

Happy Birthday Bo Knows!!!

Hope you're having a great day month, cuz!

When we last had 40% of the league together, it was a joyous occasion indeed!

There's a 1st for everything & Looking back at the PFBL draft

The "I homered before Albert Pujols" club closed it's door to new membership on Sunday afternoon with 272 players homering ahead of Pujols this season (according to baseballmusings.com). Perhaps the best part of the 2-run dinger was the the Angels dugout celebration.

Only the Bizarro Royals can hope that this means bright days ahead for the Halos slugger, as the first round pick had only 34 points heading into Sunday. However, Pujols was not alone in the "I'm a first round pick and I've only scored 34 points so far this year" club. He's joined by Colorado Tumbleweed's Cliff Lee. Though Lee has somewhat more of a solid alibi having been sidelined  on the DL for the last few weeks. After the jump we'll take a deeper look back at breaking down the PFBL draft just over a month into the season.

Bo Knows-2011 Percell Fantasy Baseball League Champion

Hey Everybody,
Let's have a good season and good luck to all!

Bo Knows: 2011 Percell Fantasy Baseball League Champions

2011 Percell Fantasy Baseball League Champions

Congratulations to Regan Slater and Bo Knows, the 2011 Percell Fantasy Baseball League Champion!

Bo Knows scored an unprecedented 8,106 points, being the first team ever to crack 8k.

Even as the race drew close down the stretch, Bo Knows extended his lead every day during the final week to run away with the title by a more than 200 point margin, the largest ever.

Way to go Regan, what a great season for Bo Knows!

I also want to personally thank everyone who participated in the league, making it highly competitive and fun yet again, as always.  Also thanks to everyone for contributing, reading, subscribing to, and following the PFBL blog Out Standing in the Field.  It was our initial effort at collective blogging, and I am very pleased with the result.  Expect more of the same in seasons to come.  We will continue to find new and exciting ways to promote the best fantasy baseball league in the nation.

As we hunker down for a long cold winter, and look to the NFL and Fantasy Football to occupy our time, we know that 2012 spring training is really right around the corner.  Never to early to start draft prep.  In the meantime, sit back, relax, and enjoy the MLB playoffs - without a doubt the best time of the whole year.

Until Next Season,
Jay
