Great Scottsmen
Drew Gallagher, 9/30/11

Gentlemen:

The 27th year of the ESL has wrapped up and with it we are crowning our ninth different champion in Dale King Scott. The championship was well-deserved despite the troubling decision to start Brett Myers on the final day of the season. But for that, the Question Marks are eternally grateful and, in all probability, so should our Pal. Myers’ atrocious outing (well documented for Phillie fans) allowed both Mark and Chris to pass Dale in ERA on the final day. That coupled with my team’s remarkable 4 for 48 effort on the final day allowed the Question Marks to leap into a three-way tie for third place which, I believe, is unprecedented in the history of the league. So without further adieu I take you to the Scottsmen’s press conference and locker room celebration.

Dale Scott walks to the podium wearing nothing but Ryan Braun boxer shorts.

Reporter: “Dale, didn’t bring a change of clothes for post celebration?”

Dale: “What? Oh, you mean the outfit? No, I usually wear just underwear around the clubhouse. Shoot if I had been drinking champagne instead of Dale’s Pale Ale I’d probably be naked right now.”

(Sound of many journalists throwing up a little bit in their mouths.)

Reporter: “So how does it feel to finally win after all of these years?”

Dale: “Well first I’d like to thank my lord and savior, Ryan Braun. Water into wine? Try hitting 33 bombs and stealing 33 bases. You’re not going to find those types of numbers in Corinthians. Parting the Red Sea? Pretty cool but not as cool as fucking Bernie Brewer coming down the slide!”

Reporter: ̶ 0;Speaking of Braun, he’s going back into the draft next season. Is there any scenario you can envision where he is not a Scottsmen?”

Dale: “No.”

Reporter: “Seriously? I mean, unless Mal flies off to South Africa again next year to miss the World Cup, you don’t envision him trying to screw you on Braun by opening the bidding at, say, 65?”

Dale: “I stand by my prior response. No. My face will turn bright red and I’ll bid 66. Might be best if Mal just stays home again this year.”

Reporter: “You really think any player is worth that kind of money after the flame out failures of Pujols and Hanley this season?”

Dale: “I didn’t say Braun was worth 66. I think he’s worth more than that and will bid more if necessary. Look, I’ll put this into perspective for you guys. My only daughter is going off to college next year. She is the light of my life and I’ll be devastated when she leaves home. But the sadness I’ll feel at my daughter’s departure doesn’t eve n compare to Brauny leaving. If he leaves, a part of me dies. And I mean a good part like my penis.”

So will 2012 bring our 10th different champion? The morning line has Mal’s squad as the current favorites. He has amassed a list of keepers as deep as any in recent memory. Only problem is that he will likely trade most of those keepers before Thanksgiving--at least those not named Bryce Harper. (At this point I’d like to interject that Marty said that Bryce Harper couldn’t carry Kyle Blanks’ jockstrap.)

Payouts were $934.20 to Dale, $519.00 to your s truly and $207.60 each to Chris, Mark and Jamie.

The offseason has now begun for those of us who are Red Sox fans. The talent again appears to be well spread throughout the 10 ESL teams. And for those who might be looking for that oh so rare blend of speed, power and batting average my sources tell me that there is a kid by the name of Braun who will be there for the taking in April. Just be prepared to say 67.
