I love how you discount the DoucheBag who's been pesky enough to be in, or flirting with, 1st place the entire time!

I'm not discounting DB by any means. Either by accident or design, he made the right move yesterday: Cubs PS, and a regular offense.

BTW, here's a real exercise in stupidity. The best offensive team you could have possibly selected from yesterday's DH:

C Miller 2.5, 3 points
1B Marinez 4.6, 3
2B Vina 4.0 , 2
3B Ramirez 5.1, 2
SS Gonzalez 3.9, 8
LF Pujols 6.9, 3
CF Edmunds 5.8, 15
RF Sosa 5.7, 8
DH O'Leary 2.0, 1

Maximum Total: 45 Points

Completely by design, PL, completely by design!

(Actually, if it makes you guys feel better, picking a regular offense was completely by accident since I didn't have time to change my offense that day. :p )

Weird....I added up the "% Owned" column for a few different positions; It never adds up to anything even close to 100%

Something, obviously, has to be wrong there. It's hard to believe that only 7 people out of every 1000 took the St. Louis PS.

Well, it looks like Plaw and I are sharing a brain today.

Surprise, surprise, Buffy has the Dodgers today. :p Hey Buffy, are Dodger Dogs really that good??

It looks like Oakland was the majority pick today.

:p

Have you guys noticed... we seem to be branching out into other threads- most fantasy-related, but still, other threads.

Yes. I come out of my shell with something sports related or competitive in nature (<----like me ) I can only talk about movies so much and these days I am talked out and I care zilch about rich, fake celebrities...give me a rich, fake guy swinging a bat anytime :rolleyes:

Sports. Cards. Music. Oh and the other thing I can't mention on a PG-13 board. I'll talk all day.

Oh and you think I didn't get the sick feeling in my stomach looking at the PS picks? I long to be by myself and then when I am, it is like !!

Big Daddy has been nipping at my um, heels...for like 3 straight weeks now, not hardly ever being more than 5 points behind me. I am scared each day that he is gonna pass me.

I think tonight we will probably seperate by more than 5 points. We'll see!

Who are you kidding, You love every mintue of it.

That's probably due to people like UU who are "in" the game but don't play or have a roster. There are probably thousands of those people out there...

WTF is my problem??! Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... Day game after a night game ... And tomorrow, I'll probably not even think of it. Again. :rolleyes:

That's probably due to people like UU who are "in" the game but don't play or have a roster. There are probably thousands of those people out there... [/b][/quote]That's what i thought, but the percentages add up to only about 40%. That means that 60% of the people who registered for the first half aren't playing the second half.

So if 10% of the people had the Oakland PS yesterday, that's really 25% of the people who are actually playing the game.

THINGS TO DO:


1) Set Fantasy Football Roster
2) Pick all games for Pigskin Pick 'Em Game
3) Pick team for Survivor Game
4) Pick tomorrow's Fantasy Baseball roster

Help a sistah out. Who're you talking about?

I don't have time to check that out either. Nor the weather. Nor wives having babies, apparently.

I usually rather enjoy flying by the seat of my pants. Of course, it always helps when I am wearing them!

Freakin' Piazza. I always seem to pick him when he doesn't play. :rolleyes:

You are sooo right. I haven't done ANY of these things today!!

Oh and for me:
5) Get all my side bets straightened out. Cybershake on all.

6) Start saving my spare change JUST IN CASE I need to pay out on these damn things!

Now we know why Big Daddy has been nipping!

Cover up Lady!

See if you wait long enough everything comes to light!

Know what hurts more?

When you have a player that DOES show up and gives you the same amount of points as a no-show Piazza -

Pretty amazing if Pizzaboy gave me SEVEN points for not showing up... :rolleyes: :p

Whine Alert!

Freaking Marcus Giles didn't play as well...

What's his excuse? Still hurtin' from when Prior ran him over?

Hey Pork!

Chone Figgins?

He is the Coco Crisp/Bo Hart of the Second Half.

You just gonna keep him until one day you wear him out and he gives you nothing??

Fellow Oakland pickers: Freakin' RAIN DELAY in Baltimore! What are you doing to us, Bethie?!?

Edit: Okay, they've started. Hope the weather holds up!

Yup, and Orioles scored 3 runs already, ain't you glad? Don't worry, it's still raining at my house, and I'm only about 10 miles from Camden Yards. Rainout possible.

Should have done what I did, picked Oakland yesterday. :p

Yup. 3 runs in the 1st.

Was just gonna retract my "hope the weather holds out" comment. I want a ZERO today at this rate!!! WTF Hudson??

-Bottom of the 1st inning
-B Roberts lined out to shortstop.
-L Matos singled to left.
-L Bigbie singled to right, L Matos to second.
-L Matos to third, L Bigbie to second on error by right fielder J Guillen. L Matos scored on throwing error by right fielder J Guillen.
-J Gibbons doubled to left, L Bigbie scored.
-T Batista flied out to center, J Gibbons to third.
-B Surhoff singled to right, J Gibbons scored.
-M Mora hit by pitch, B Surhoff to second.
-D Cruz safe at first on error by shortstop M Tejada, B Surhoff to third, M Mora to second.
-B Fordyce flied out to center.

WTF IS THIS??!!! THE BAD NEWS BEARS??!!?

-10 pts after 1 inning. Shouldn't some of those errors be unearned runs?

Is the Marlins game over? The scoreboards on both ESPN and Yahoo say it's in the 6th inning, 1-0 Florida. But the box score in the game says it's over, a Marlins loss? Usually the game box score lags behind the actual scoreboard... guess I need to check w/ "The Bottom Line"...

Edit: Okay, The Bottom Line says it's 1-0 in the 6th. Will have to manually calculate that PS score afterwards. Dammit, I got excited for nothing.

I hate this game. I wanna kill this guy -->

Wednesday

DB 2367 Fla (31) 66 2433
JG 2366 Oak (-16) 19 2385
PL 2311 Fla (31) 48 2359
LD 2234 LA (-1) 24 2258
BD 2229 Oak (-16) 15 2244
FS 2121 Oak (-16) 01 2122
SC 2057 Oak (-16) 01 2058
OA 1937 Cle (11) 30 1967
JJ. 1882 Atl (-1) 13 1895

OK add Oakland to my list of suck ass PS not to take - pisses me off - the only thing that would make me feel better is to see the Dodgers get smoked. There are a lot of errors in the game hopefully some or all of those runs become Unearned. Maybe Oakland will rally tie it in the 9th and goto to extra innings ....

Difficult..not impossible :p

The Bad Daddy Curse lives!! :p

What else could explain this:

TIM HUDSON
Orioles .197 avg in his career
1.45 ERA the last 30 days
0.44 ERA at Camden Yards
Orioles batting .167 the past week
Oakland has given up 9 runs thru 7 innings

ROD LOPEZ
Oakland .282 avg in his career
5.65 ERA the last 30 days
4.11 ERA at Camden Yards
Oakland batting .224 the past week
Lopez has a 6-hit shutout going into the 8th

Well, tomorrow looks like another shit day! I should have know it when Mondays rosters were full of teams.
I hate this game and will not play next year.
At least you guys got big numbers yesterday!
