The view is great, Douche, so I thought I'd share it with you. I think I'll back my way up to PL so I can see Buffy's front now

Yes! The trend is, you're one cocky mofo! :p
I'm #2 the past 2 weeks, so you just wait for the second half!

Before I lose 2nd Place, for prosperity...

Hey!!!!!! Your six point Sheff lead grew to 9 today! That ain't fair.

Soooo, not confident in your lead eh? Not cocky trash talkin' like some people, huh?

I MUST have a better week this week. Of course until the weekend when it all falls apart for me.

You know, JG the view gets rather distorted a bit when you're TOO close! You might want to take up the rear and give it some distance

I didn't expect much variety with only 3 games today, so there isn't much:

6 of us took C Santiago
4 took 1B Helton
2 took 2B Belliard, and 2 took Durham
3 took 3B Valentin, and 2 took Hillenbrand
5 took SS Jimenez
3 took LF Bonds (6 have no LF)
3 took CF Bradley (the rest have no CF) < damn him for the 2-run double!
4 took RF Walker, 2 Cruz Jr, 2 Ordonez
2 took DH Nady

6.6% of all players picked ChiSox PS today

I'm not too close, you're too close :p

Damn game maker Milton Bradley just scored 2 runs for Cleveland Guess we're both going down equally... :rolleyes: Ugh, time for a Colonectomy here in the 6th inning...

Ok Porker, it's over...you don't have to wait up till midnight to relish in your 6 pitching points

It is now fair to call Colon an asshole, right??

Sniff - Sniff - Smells like the Curse of Pork to me.

Yep, and I seem to be forever stuck in the middle of this recurring Oreo dream.

Dammit.

6 points. Ughh. I think I just threw up in my mouth.

At least it wasn't negative... :rolleyes:

So the Curse got you too. :rolleyes:

When will you people ever learn

All I have to say is...

LET'S GO ROCK-IES!!!

Until you have something to show for yourself, Pipsqueak, I'd keep quiet there in 7th Place :p

Learn? I have had one terrible (and long) week. Let's counter my terrible week with the week you didn't play because you were late and call that a wash.

The stats guy will tell you how many weeks I have stayed within the top 4, a week at number one with most of the time at number 2. Have you ever visited the top 4 BDD? With your eyes open, I mean

And you think you can teach me something....?

One bad fall on the playground and all the other kids want to kick you before you can get up and brush yourself off! ....typical.

Ah, the week is still young!

Something against Oreos, BDD? Must be a Keebler Elf kinda guy.

Anyone else notice that JG is getting a little testy lately?

He is always a little teste when he forces his way on top.

Buffy, actually I was in the top 4 last week, now that you mention it although don't remember seeing you there . And in regards to the last 5 weeks - Pork Rinds you have only 4 points more than myself and of course we both have more than Buffy.

So you two kids should not be worrying about who is behind you - but should be worrying about who is in front of you - or have you both conceited first place.

The only thing I've conceded to is, that I'm gonna beat YOU :p

Teste? Yeah, two of 'em actually!

Hey, I was looking at one of the Fantasy Baseball web chat transcripts, this one hosted by Steve Gardner on USAToday. I copied some of it but - does the third one sound familiar?


********************
Murfreesboro, TN: Is Terrance Long the Odd Man Out in Oakland? Can Eric Byrnes really be this good? How has he fared in the minor's?

Steve Gardner: Long doesn't give the A's a whole lot offensively -- he doesn't hit particularly well for average or power and he doesn't steal as many bases as you'd think for a guy who's pretty fast.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

boise, id: good morning steve. love the chat. is it time to cut bait with konerko? my other option at 1b is dimitri young who has been hot. i need to make room for oswalt coming off the dl. also can you rank these pitchers for the rest of the season: buehrle, peavy, lawrence, bhkim, webb. thanks a bunch.

Steve Gardner: Young is a better option right now.

I have to think Buehrle will get things turned around in Chicago. Unless he's hiding some sort of an injury he should be a lot better than a 2-8 pitcher.

Put Buehrle first, then Kim, Peavy, Lawrence and Webb.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

New Mexico, PA: Steve, I just fell out of second place because I was at a wedding reception and quite drunk and was not able to make the necessary roster change. I don't believe that is fair - who do I talk to about that? Also I am concerned because I bearly beat out for the week a guy that is not even playing anymore. He hasn't changed his roster one bit the entire week, where I slave over stats each day, for what, to pick up 20 points on him? Damnit I hate this game.

Steve Gardner: Hey NM - face it, you had your run, time for somebody else now - you couldn't get it done. I noticed how you didn't mention that your offense got you a whopping 13 points on Sunday - gee I guess that had nothing to do with falling from second place. My suggestion is to enjoy third place for soon you be hitting fourth.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Montreal, Canada: Hello, I would like to know if there is something wrong with Tim Salmon : he is being replaced almost every other day and he slumped for the last three weeks. Thank's in advance.

Steve Gardner: He's just struggling at the plate and he's getting some time off to get his head straight. It's just one of those things players go through. He'll be back.

That is SO funny!!! It's hilarious to think they don't use uppercase letters in Boise!!!!

BDD - who said I was drunk? That was not why I could not make a roster change. Now, my last minute midnight roster changes COULD usually be blamed on a libation or three but Saturday night was strictly a technology problem or lack thereof.

And I still stand by my original argument that you can count up points all you want (achhhhhoooooGEEKgzuendheit!) , but you have NEVER PLACED in 4th place or above in the overall standings.

Talk smack about my performance all you want but I am still on top of you.

The only thing I've conceded to is, that I'm gonna beat YOU :p

[/b][/quote]I think what BDD wants to know is, "Have you conceded to the person in first place, who is conceited?"

Eww.

Bad Daddy, you SOB, you're gonna curse me today, aren't you? Dammit!! :rolleyes:

The Top 6 all have different PS's... for once... nice!! We'll really see where the curse is then... undoubtably, I'm the one who'll get fucked... by Bad Daddy's pick... sigh... like I need that!! :rolleyes:

Listen bacon butt - it is not I who holds the curse - I do fine on my own. For example there is not better feeling that waking up and finding I have Wood and am all alone. Hey, that doesn't sound good ...

Besides it was not I who yesterday scored a whopping 6 points from my PS as you took others down with you. Who knows, maybe that curse was because you were in third place, now that are in second maybe the curse no longer applies? Doubtful but hoping. However if Oakland tanks tonight, than you PM me each night your PS staff selection and we'll coordinate that we both don't have the same.

With only 12 points seperating me from 2nd place I have to WISH for the BIGGEST of Bad Daddy curses today. I have been screwed over by Oakland three times badly in this game so far so I'm a bit reluctant to take them (and the Cubs ) - once you kick your dog one too many times, I doubt he is gonna come 'round and lick your hand.....
