The New York Yankees. I hate their owner, I hate their attitude that they somehow invented baseball, I hate their firm belief that they somehow deserve a playoff spot every year.
I'd love to see a salary cap in the MLB just to see the Bronx Bums and the Red Sox forced to a more level playing field.
Past: Close race between John "the Count" Montefusco (http://www.baseball-reference.com/m/montejo01.shtml) and Dave Dravecky (http://www.baseball-reference.com/d/draveda01.shtml).
The Count for being one of the all-time greats, and for throwing the last no-hitter for the Giants, and Dravecky for coming back from cancer. He was an inspiration for me during my fight.
Present: Probably Noah Lowry (http://www.baseball-reference.com/l/lowryno01.shtml). Kid's a lefty, and when he has his stuff together he has one of the nastiest curves in the league.
I have to say that I always hold a spot in my heart for closers like Robb Nen (http://www.baseball-reference.com/n/nenro01.shtml) and the late Rod Beck (http://www.baseball-reference.com/b/beckro01.shtml). That's the job I'd want in baseball.
FUDGE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FUDGE). Amazingly versatile, very rules-light, and endlessly tweakable.
Frankly, if they didn't keep offering me money, I'd chuck GURPS. Way too many rules and special cases. The few people who are interested in local games don't want to memorize an entire rulebook. That's the nice thing about FUDGE: it is very simple to learn.
