I had four different teams for today. My original, an all Atl-Colo with the Cleve PS, then an Atl-Colo-Toro-Chic, and finally this one. Look at my transaction log. I must have changed the last one 30 times.
Edit: I checked. About 100 transactions in 1:52. By far the most time I ever spent on this damn game.

You have no idea. I had my original lineup. Then I discovered Atl/Col so redid it, with just those teams. Then, in a rush cuz I was going out, I then had to look at Tor/Chi... and now I get home, and see that the then-delayd Box/Tex game was ppd. And all freaking tomorrow! OMG... talk about a rush-job! And normally I *live* for that. But it was really bad timing cuz I was running about all evening. But, I managed to get thru it quickly. Tho, I'm sure I could've done a much better job given more time [That's my pre-whine alert!  ] 2:54... it's safe to post that now... tho none of us on here now missed it, of course...

Looks like DB might still be working on his. Can't wait to see who missed it.
This was extra hard cuz there were so many good offensive players going.

Well, I guess we did our part -- imparting nervousness and doubt into DB tonight. Guess we can finally hit the sack, too. Tomorrow sometime I'll try to post D-H lineups and such...

He just imparted some nervousness and doubt to me. When I did my team, I checked the weather in Chicago, and it was supposed to stop raining by the afternoon. Now it looks like rain all day. With no PS and 4 offensive players down, I could wind up being the goat.

Well, meteorologists can't predict what they're having for breakfast the next morning....
But.
A LOT of games are threatened tomorrow... (or was that today?).... we'll see... (thankfully, it's a looooong season!)
