I think I interpreted it the way you do, but based on the ambiguous way it's written, I'm not even close to being sure. How are they going to credit you with points if you don't have that player or PS anymore? What I really don't understand is this: According to MLB, this game was a rainout, but according to ESPN's definition of a suspended game, it's a suspended game. But according to ESPN's rules, they follow MLB's scoring rules in most cases.

It was OA's raindance. Simple as that. We gotta blame him!

Hell ya G- I's dancin till my legs went numb!!

That saved me like 25 points & pushed me into the weekly lead

Looks like I'm finally climbin out of the 8 spot

Yes, I'm glad you finally realize that the only way you can beat me is with voodoo, rain dances, sticking pins in dolls, etc. Certainly not with your picks or strategy.

SC? He's come to that realization already. Looks like he's not a war time consigliere.

At least Plawrence is admitting he CAN be beat.

I'll use any means necessary to crush you people, think of it as twisted logic: 3 parts strategy, only 1 part voodoo.

Them there's fightin' words, varment!

Tuesday...

You wanna rumble? Fine. But I suggest you get a war time consigliere first :p I'm gona ask LDV if she'll "consig" for me

Buffy?

What, you can't win on your own, you need a girl's help? :p



(No disrespect, Buff', you're gonna win this thing, I know it - or at least come behind me in 2nd, when I'm done with Plawrence! )


As for SC, he literally hasn't been playing. Too busy w/ work. But I have to tell him at least to move that injured player he has...

As far as I'm concerned, LDV is one of the guys around here. Before I saw the picture she posted, I envisioned her looking like Doris from Rego Park. (cough, cough)

OK, pl.... the gloves come off. Ya better have someone else start ya car for ya.

I'll be able to get back into the season in a few weeks, and I expect I'll make a reasonable showing in the first half (I GOTTA finish above Douche!).

Thanx for the heads-up on the DL, Geoff. I made my change. These last three weeks haven't been fun.

C'mon, Beth, shake dem pom-poms!

I thought it was my pom poms that were giving you bad luck. Nice to know they still got some magic. But hey..if you start to win you won't need me anymore will ya. There is a method to your madness after all.

*commencing wiggling....Sis Boom Bah..rah rah rah

Yes SC, I too can see PL is just BEGGING for an ass kicking.

I admit when it comes to sports, I was born with the jock gene, but outwardly, I am all girl. I don't feel I have anything to prove just because I am a chick, but I'll be damned if I let this group of guys get the best of me.

To quote Faye Dunaway in "Mommie Dearest":

Don't fuck with me fellas, this ain't my first time at the rodeo!

I feel I am the most improved player so far as I started the game late, spent weeks dead last and made my way up all the way to first and am now hovering consistently in the top 3. Hear me, Big Daddy Hot Rod? What're you waiting for?

Speaking of the top three.....notice that we are deviating from the other more "popular" choices for pitching staff? These are the kind of choices which will really make ya or break ya. The kind that can move standings around considerably. Only time will tell - no guts, no glory.

I remember when Bethie used to be on MY side. She quit shaking her pom poms for me when I was outed as a ...(what did Pork call me?) "girl"......

Stop wigglin' dem pom-poms, Beth, I'm supposed to be concentratin' on...... um......errrrr..... baseball (I think).

Dolce, you're absolutely right, you got nuthin' to prove to us guys. You're doing absolutely great (but you'd do better if you chucked a shotglass at pl's head).

Damn......look at dem pom-poms go!!

Wow! Didn't know my pom poms were so popular. Think of me as that girl Morgana who used to run out to kiss the ball players, minus the 44DD's..

I wonder what stir doing a cartwheel or split would do! But then again, that may require hip replacement surgery afterward.

Personally all I concern myself with is who the hell JGeoff picked - and yet once fU@k!ng again - I have the same as him. Great, another night of either single digits or minus points . Hey JGeoff just some advice - why don't you simply post who you are going to pick - with the way they have played for you recently you will have that entire pick all to yourself.

And the reason the top three can't get the 'popular' picks is because they have not managed their CAP very well to this point. You see from this point on those of us who have can make the necessary moves - those of you in the top three will soon find yourself sliding back further and further behind.

Well that is what I keep saying to myself. Being in last place - I have to find some way to talk smack and sound legitimate :p

Look here Mister Smack-Talker... Don't pretend to know what goes into making my picks. I manage my CAP very well thank you...money has never been an issue on whom I wanted to choose as my pitching staff. In fact, I almost ALWAYS have money left over and that is damn good and almost unheard of for a woman (to have surplus money and not spend it all? ) I'm not sold on the idea that only the most expensive are the only ones that can get you points. Popular-schpopular. :p

Keep smack talking Big Daddy, I like it. :p But you're gonna have to yell a little louder, I'm having a hard time hearing you WAY BACK THERE! Also makes watching your lips move difficult as well :p

Anyone else notice the site is all screwed up in regards to posting the name of the pichers pitching today?

I opened up the site today and almost had a heart attack after seeing them list some unheard of 0-1 pitcher on my roster. Looks as if they posted TOMORROW'S pitcher on today's roster but the MLB scoreboard has them all correct.

Thank goodness!

This is the thanks I get, Buffy, for all the compliments I've paid you?

And Big Daddy: Maybe the reason the folks in the top three are in the top three is because they stay away from those over-priced pitching staffs and sink their dough into offense, and also we ...we....never mind, I'm not giving away any more strategy. But, go Sixers

Listen, Buddy - Maybe it's you who's the jinx! Moose should NOT have given up 3 runs already in the 4th!! Maybe you should tell me who you're picking tomorrow before I end up in the pits with you :p

Moose is the best pitcher of the day, going against one of the lamest. On paper, it was the smartest pick. So stay away from my PS's!! :p

]

Yea, LDV, I actually noticed it yesterday. It scared the crap out of me when I thought they made a pitching change and moved up Estes a day.

Smartest Pick?? - we are at the end of 7 and at minus 5. Ok since you asked I will tell you -tomorrow I am taking the Phils or the Dodgers. You can have any other team you want - just please leave me those two so I can at least get some points tomorrow.
:p

HA!! I'm not taking the Phils or the Dodgers tomorrow so you KNOW what that means.....


You're screwed!!

Have a nice rest of the night! (or should I say last inning.......?)

Bad Daddy - It was the smartest pick, on paper... :p

And I cannot believe you're deciding between the two same teams I am!!!! ARGH!!!!

Just kiddin' buddy, lol... I didn't pick either of them. Tomorrow at this time, we'll see who the jinx really is. (Okay, so it'll probably be me

Freaking A!!! The Phillies were throwing a beautiful 6 hit/1 run/12 K game through 8 innings and what do they do in the ninth- give up 5 freaking runs- all after two outs. Freaking Mesa!

I should petition to the major leagues that all those runs should be unearned because the first run was scored on a wild pitch. I may be wrong, but if a run is scored on an error with two outs, doesn't that count as an unearned run. Therefore, every run scored after that are unearned runs as well... Doesn't a wild pitch count as an error?

O.K., O.K., I know I'm grasping at straws here...

Damn - the curse of JGeoff was never more evident than tonight The smart pick - is that what you called it. If -18 is the smart pick I'd hate to see what the worst pick was.

Anyway I am looking for anyone that knows of a game that may be cancelled tomorrow - weather, SARS, smog - I don't care. My new strategy is to go for a plain 0 instead of these minus points each day. :p

The worst pick was the ChiSox... but Buffy got 35 from that one

Ugh. I'm disgusted.

Yeah and PL gets 25+ points also. I guess we'll gonna have to listen to both of them 'crow' tomorrow. I can feel my ears bleeding now

And I am sure we'll hear interesting tid-bits from LDV on American Idol. I really think she has an American Idol Desktop Calendar on her desk at work - each day with a differnt tid-bit of information - that she will share .

Gee how will I sleep tonight now? - with all of this to look forward to tomorrow . :p
