September 25, 2006 2006 Season Ends: BEATS WIN PENNANT
The Dharma Beats (91-71) spent most of the regular season in first place. They now sit atop the other three teams in the dramatically constricted regular CBA playing league. Nevertheless, first is first in any book and the Beats will have the honor of competing in the Cosmic Universal Series (CUS) scheduled to begin on Thanksgiving Day (November 23). The opponents will be the second place team in the league, the venerable Paradise Pisces (80-82). The Pisces represent the first cosmic baseball team to make it to the CUS with a below .500 winning percentage. That's right, the Pisces get to the big series while accumulating a losing record. Another reason the CBA's board of directors needs to seriously reconsider decontraction.
Despite his political woes, George W. Bush had an outstanding season at the plate for the Washington Presidents. The right fielder led the league in batting average (.347). President and outfielder Ulysses S. Grant led all batters with his mark of 66 home runs. Beat pitcher Jack Micheline led the league in innings pitched (280.7) and most wins (17). Compiling a 17-9 won-loss record puts Micheline on the favorites list to be this season's Most Cosmic Pitcher.
Nine American colleges and/or universities, all founded before the American Revolution was fought, play against nine (U.S.) states recently recognized for the quality of their school systems.
