I thought I'd post this seeing as it isn't every day Planetarion gets mentioned on the telly, although if you think it is worthless then get a mod to delete it .

Those of you who stay up late at night in the UK might have flicked on the baseball on Channel 5 (or five as it is called now) from time to time. They do games on Sunday night (more like Monday morning) and Wednesday night (more like Thursday morning). Each week they do a fantasy baseball update on this league - http://www.fantasybaseballuk.com - which the presenters take part in. They give the Top 3 teams from each week and chat a little about the league.

It so happens that, through a mixture of luck and more luck, my team managed to come Joint 1st for last week. It was thus so that, this past Wednesday night, their name, the Planetarion Padres , was read out on national telly.

You can read more about my monumental (cough) achievement here :

Re: Tv

Nah it is fair comment , I only got into it because I happened to flick it on one night when channel surfing on a short break from working at around 2am in the morning.
