[JD]

The draft is SUNDAY-SUNDAY-SUNDAY, y'all...DANG!

Be there or face teh wrath of the autodraft!

You know who you are.

[Lance Dicksons Arm]

You know who you are.

The defending champion??

[Simmer]

Just saw ESPN scroll their "Top 3 Fantasy SPs on the decline" across the bottom.

#3 Fausto Carmona, went from  19-8  3.06, to  8-7  5.44
#2 Aaron Harang, went from  16-6  3.73, to  6-17  4.78
#1 Carlos Zambrano, his win percentage improved over .100 points, and his ERA was 0.04 points lower!  Oh, and he threw a no-hitter

This makes no fucking sense.

Well Simmer, it IS ESPN.

I don't understand the Carmona selection at all.  He's only 25.  I think with Harang and Z, they are speculating on potential arm issues.   I still don't understand how that equates to "decline"...it's more of a matter of "risk". 

This is the same network, however, that has an editorial section within Sportscenter called "Cold Hard Facts"....so...

Fucking PenFoe.

[Slaky]

You have to admit - that's a fine jersey.

[PenFoe]

Fucking PenFoe.

Okay, I totally did not realize this happened and I extend my sincerest apologies.
I logged on a couple times just to check progress and I saw that it was on auto-draft.
Which explains why I have four 1Bs.

I turned off auto-draft for 2 seconds to grab a second baseman when I realized that Yahoo was planning on waiting until the only one left was Aaron Miles.

I thought I turned it back on, must have missed that.

FWIW, I did see at least 3 of my picks go in like 10 seconds, however I hear this was not always the case.
I've been on the other side of this, so I know how much it sucks, PANK VERY SORRY.

[JD]

So?  How many keepers are we gonna have in this league? 
I need to know before the draft because I might wanna take Gabor Bako in the third round only Gabor Bako won't be Gabor Bako but will instead be Matt Wieters.  Then I'll take Kei Igawa(really?) only it won't be Kei Igawa(who died and made him a viable fantasy pick?) but will instead be Yu Darvish.  Then my fantasy dynasty battery will be set in 5 years when they're both in the US and good. 
It all depends on numbers, people.  It's a numbers game at this point.

This guy had his eye on Matt Wieters long before Thrill did.

This is the most awesomest proposal in the history of Fantasy Sports:

I don't think you guys are funny. You shouldn't be laughing considering I just won the whole fucking thing last night. I mean, that is, if I can somehow manage to defeat BC's invincible squadron.

[TDubbs]

Explain to me again why it's cool that JD has two teams in the league.

Because we get to pwn him twice.

Whatever happened to the Neifi! League?
