The Man Who Started It All

 The splatter ball lockout has been underway for many weeks now. After 7 meetings between the owners, they have come to an agreement and the season will start TOMORROW with the annual draft! This post is dedicated to the owner and founder of the Red Raptors, Mark O'Connor. Mr. O'Connor founded the Raptors in May 2011 and the team was added to the league late that month. Mark is a true visionary and sports connoisseur, using his knowledge of the SF Giants and their management to manage the Red Raptors and create an extraordinary team. I trust that he will use his knowledge to draft well in tomorrow's draft. We will need it, seeing as Jason Schlek's contract expired and he chose to sign with Ventura Megalodons. We need some talent, and we need it now. The Red Raptors should be the reigning league champs, but the lockout started in the middle of the season.  It is rebuilding time for the Raptors, and Mark has started it off the right way. Firing EVERYONE on the team excluding himself, then hiring everyone back on. However, he released all the current players on the team (seeing as how Jason Schlek carried them on his shoulders the whole season). Since then he has signed on key players such as RF Thomas Borgiano, LF Randy Yamahasaki, CF Bryon Willsen, and perhaps the biggest signing for the team, he is a guard, last year he played for the Kirkjubæjarklaustur Bears, he is Wienczyslaw Wenczeslaw. Well played Mr. O'Connor. Well played.
