Not that much fantasy sports talk, and no real trash talking...... But after a few bottles of wine had been emptied, JG admitted that he stinks at fantasy baseball and that his first place standing in the Yahoo game was due strictly to luck...... DMC admitted that he was sorry that he wasn't in either game, but vowed to play the salary cap game the second half and promised to kick ass..... DC admitted that he didn't know the first thing about baseball, and uses a dart board that he has at home to pick his pitching staff every day, which was why he had to wait until he got home to pick his team the other day when his internet connection was down..... SC admitted that he started three days late on purpose, so he would have a built in excuse for his usual poor showing..... and CC admitted that she doesn't care where she finishes in the final standings as long as she winds up as the "Top Chick".....

I think by now we must have pretty much rewritten the entire script. Good one, DB.

I hope Griffey plays today. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. What happens if he fools me a third time?

Jun. 9, 2006 - 9:38 am et Ken Griffey (quadriceps) is expected to return to the starting lineup on Friday.
Griffey sat out Wednesday and Thursday due to the sore quad. "Junior was a lot better (Thursday)," trainer Mark Mann said. "He thinks with this extra day he'll get over the hump. He has very minimal soreness."
Source: Cincinnati EnquirerAfter his big night on Tuesday, I had him in my lineup for Wednesday, when he sat. When I did my Thursday team (on Wednesday afternoon) I remember he had good lifetime numbers against whoever was pitching, so I put him in there for Thursday (before i knew he was gonna sit Wednesday night). When he didn't play Wednesday night, I "tweaked" him out of my Thursday lineup late Wednesday, and substituted Tori Hunter in CF. Unfortunately, the Minnesota manager decided that Thursday night would be a good night to gaive Hunter his first day off of the season, despite his good lifetime numbers against whoever he was supposed to be facing. As Casey Stengal - The Old Professor - used to say, "You could look it up." Someday I'll figure all of this out.....  :rolleyes:

Yesterday's updates later, guys. Originally posted by Just Lou: You 'doubleheader heads' really should check weather forecasts before games. :p I checked. But the way I figured it was that DB was gonna check also, and after he did he would figure that even though there was a chance of a rainout, he would still go with all DH players because he wouldn't take the chance that they would would play both games and I would have all DH players and he wouldn't. So, figuring that he was gonna take all DH players, I figured that I could afford to as well, since if they did play both games I couldn't afford to not have all DH players if he did, and if they didn't play both games, I wouldn't be any worse off by having all DH players, since he would too. I don't know if I explained that very well.....

I don't know if I explained that very well... You're beginning to sound more and more like a combination of Norm Crosby and Professor Irwin Corey. Stop with the double-talk and post the results already. P.S. :p
