Alright then, time to sweep the rest of the series. Challenge accepted.

Nice win by Houston! Staying in it after being knocked back by 2 and making me think we were officially out.

I posted here a while ago and can't seem to locate that post to edit it, so: Don't bother making me anything; Sonnet recently made a nice Garcia graphic that does very well for me. Thank you very much, though, for creating this thread for those of us who can't edit a photo to save our lives.

I take it most in positions of authority won't be overly interested in handing over a GM job to someone as new as I am (and, in fact, it is my opinion that the job should ABSOLUTELY go to someone who's been around longer should they want it). That being said, though, if you are comfortable with the idea of throwing in a new guy who will definitely stick around and be dedicated, color me interested as I'd love to give it a try.

Gotta love expansion teams! Even though I'll be in the VHL next season it will be interesting to see how all three of these new teams do. As far as other expansion teams go, Houston has already managed to make themselves legitimate, but that extra first round pick is probably what's saved Philly's draft hopes from being absolutely destroyed by this announcement.

Halifax worships Satan so I thought we had the power of God and anime on our side but apparently that didn't work out for us Good game Halifax and thanks for putting up with me all season. Edit: Never mind. Thought our season was over because wild card only took 2 games. It's best of 7 and Houston is going to bring it. 2-0 never stopped anyone.

@Sonnet we're winning the cup right

Many congratulations to Europe! Our one win against Europe became all the more puzzling when they won the championship. Asia didn't have as much success as I'd hoped, and I'd hardly call myself an "exemplary GM," but I hope everyone who had the chance to play for me had fun. Though I didn't do that well, it was an honor to GM Team Asia. Many thanks to @BladeMaiden, @FrostBeard, and the VHL community for making this possible.

1. What's the secret to building a successful defenseman in this league? 2. Jerry Garcia has been mentioned as a definite possibility for a Davos first round selection in this upcoming season in a few mock drafts, yours included. a) how do you feel about this, and b) what's your opinion on Charlie Paddywagon, the other top defenseman who's just as good? 3. Other than defense, what position would you like to see Davos go for in the draft? 4. You've said earlier in your press conference that your favorite VHLM team is Ottawa, by far. How would you feel about being drafted by the Reapers to make Philly proud?

Ask me anything! Honestly, I'm making this thread for fun, not TPE, so there's no such thing as too many questions here. You're either very or not at all familiar with me at this point (not sure which group most league members are in) so let's get some press for Jerry! ...By the way, you're welcome to tag me if you really want to make sure I notice your post. I understand some people get annoyed by being tagged but I'm not one of them. EDIT: This is now the official thread for Jerry Garcia the GM as well as Jerry Garcia the player! Whether you'd like to know about the defenseman or the manager, ask away!

GUESS WHAT TIME IT IS IT'S TIME FOR THE GRAND OLD GUSTAV GUARANTEE HOUSTON WINS THE CUP

Jerry Garcia Defenseman Hits: 7.93 Shot Blocks: 5.5 7.93+5.5=13.43 So if I understand this right I take that and add 3 to it and I come away with 16 TPE?

I saw the Halifax-Ottawa game and I thought "oh nice, Ottawa took them to OT. They're not the big deal we thought." ...and then I saw this one. Let's hope that's just a fluke and we can take whatever momentum we had before today into the playoffs.

Double L against Yukon. I'm having beginning-of-the-season flashbacks.

Tough loss, but we're in.

Can't wait for the playoffs! These last 4 games are just playing it out until the end.

Basically at any one point this season if you do a point task centered on a brand there's also a 2-TPE bonus on top of the 6 you'd otherwise get. Sonnet told me about it and Beaviss approved my update so they can probably explain a good deal better than I can.

Honestly, I had no idea--I haven't been tracking standings all too closely lately, I was pretty sure Houston was going to make it and I thought you guys were pretty good seeing as we couldn't beat you earlier this season. Oh well, point still stands as the Bulls are hot lately.

What do you think about being Jerry's linemate in a season or two? I think our builds complement each other well.

Great to see Houston consistently beating playoff teams (and, by extension, everyone) heading into the playoffs. Love the way our momentum has shifted. Also I love seeing Garcia on the top of the stat sheet.

"Expansion teams suck" -Everyone when I started and Houston was new as well

Hey, remember way back when we thought Houston might not make the playoffs? Things have been figured out since then.
