NFL Team & Cap Draft : CHAT

[Nosferatu]

So Hockey you up for a MLB draft?

Hopefully we can count on the regulars...

 

[Ritzarmy]

I think its a better idea if the votes are given to two people on the outside chance I win again I dont want anyone thinking its fishy...

You and me equals 2 but double check my math

 

[Nosferatu]

I wonder what the Rays will give us for Mauer, he's hit .404 at the Trop over his career.

German Marquez RHP & Brent Honeywell RHP and we can kick in some of Joe's rediculous salary...

 

[mr.hockey4242]

We need Mauer bad for the stretch run. He's one of our most reliable guys with men on base.

I about flipped my shit when I saw people suggesting Dozier bat 3rd and Mauer moved down. Downright idiotic.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

and I'll let you know on the MLB draft

Here is a possible New way to vote that may work...

owners are not allowed to vote in games where they are playing...

When you Vote, you must write at least one sentence saying why team A should win, and another sentence saying why team A should lose.

the teams owner in question is ONLY allowed to rebut the points the voter makes(they can not sell their team).

After rebuttal, the voter is allowed to change his vote...

 

[Nosferatu]

I'm all for whatever you guys want. Although I like letting owners vote because not always do we vote for ourselves. I can get behind the not letting owners talk about anything but responding to the voters thoughts.

Decided yet?

Oh and Mauer sucks, maybe the worst contract in MLB history...

 

[Pack 500]

Congrats to the wieners!

1. Gold
2. WLK
3. 500

Nice job fellas. Is it me or does it seem like 500 and WLK are always in the top 3?

Yes but 3rd way too often

 

[Nosferatu]

Hockey, does Berrios get called up Tuesday?

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Doesn't matter his contract when regarding his talent.

He's probably our second best player right now behind Sano with Buxton forcing Dozier to bat 2nd. His contract has always been awful lol.

And on berrios idk...he's over 150 innings but God he would be nice to throw at teams at least out of the pen.

 

[Pack 500]

If the playoffs started today the Twins would lose to the Yankees (Again) in the WC game. Ooops I mean play... Okay I mean lose...

About the only team the Yankees could beat right now sadly

IMO, the changing votes on rebuttal is a massive mistake

I actually think this is the most important part... doesn't it bother you when someone votes and gives you a reason you think is BS... And you want to show them why they are wrong... by allowing a revote, you are advocating for that voter to actually READ your rebuttal...

Please forgive me for not feeling sorry for you!

How about people dont actually vote they only give there couple lines of who they like in the match up and why then the owners are allowed a rebuttal then everyone votes.

 

[UK Cowboy]

How about instead of posting rankings on players, we do it by groupings, and instead of 1-15 points, make it 1-8 if there are 8 teams.

Example:

Football
Run Offense
Run Defense
Pass Offense
Pass Defense
Overall Team/scheme fit

If there are 8 teams, vote 1-8 on specific areas, best to worst. Still play head to head, point total is tiebreaker

For baseball, maybe

Speed
Power Hitting
Average OBP
IF D
OF D
Catcher D
Starting pitching
Bullpen
Righty/Lefty balance

 

[Ritzarmy]

Keep it simple. No votes on thread but PM to myself and Nos. You can post what ever you want on the thread but remember the more you post the more rebuttal you will get.

I'm just giving you trial and error opinion from someone who's seen us try that. Then it becomes a raging argument, and people pissed because they feel like someone talked someone out of a vote. Just make your vote, list your reasons, and stick to it IMO

 

[mr.hockey4242]

While I try and balance things out. I think having "righty/lefty" balance is a bad thing to have a possible tiebreaker.
