Well, more impressive moves by TKO. Stockpiled a little pitching, than moved Bailey for Lawrie. Nicely done.

Our pitching match-up this week won't be pretty, at least from my perspective. I think the only category I MIGHT have a chance at is Saves...and that's only if i'm lucky! Haven't looked at the hitting side of things yet.

Save me, Lord Farquhar!

Guys,

Going to be a very busy day for my. Not only is summer vacation at its end, but my family is in the process of moving. I may not have time to do the preview this week.

Happy week 19!

We're even. I've got a problem with my mother board so I lost visual on my laptop. I have the week 18 recap done, I just can't see it and can't open it on this dinasaur of a computer I'm using right now that's stripped down to the basics. Fuck me!

I'll be on for just the basics until I figure out/get fixed whatever the hell is wrong, so if I'm silent...that's why.

So now that my laptop is down I get to use my old laptop which has been sitting in the closet for years. It originally had windows 98 on it and was upgraded to XP.
I've got 256 MB of Ram and a 2 gig hard drive. No word or excel which I use for a lot of things. The windows media player doesn't recognize MP4 format so I can't even watch any of the movies I have stored on my external drive (not like I could fit them on my hard drive anyway). Good thing I've got real player otherwise my music would be out the window as well. As for loading web pages, it's a step above using dialup but nowhere near what I've gotten accustomed to.

Amazing how far we've come with tec in the past 13 years, that thing was top of the line when it came out. Now comes the fun part, now I get to hit quick reply and have it post (but not quickly)

Whoops...hey, can I get banned from here for calling someone an asshole?

 

[BigDDude]

Whoops...hey, can I get banned from here for calling someone an asshole?

Yes. BUT,....., it has to be the right/wrong someone to accomplish that. Throw it around this fantasy area, and you are probably golden. However, direct it to Admin HammerDown, and you are probably going down.

Nah, I called some guy a cocksmoker the other day.............

Check the other board, you'll know who i'm talking about. I'm pretty sure Hammer feels the same way.

Nice! I'm gonna have to remember that one.

Other board? Or, do you just mean the main MLB area here? If so, which thread?

You have me curious.

The main board, on the "overrated" thread. The same guy I was feeling sorry for after he got ganged up on by the CBS guys. Shit, I should have joined in!

Gotcha, and thank you.

I would have never seen or know this. The reason being, the guy in question, Imsmarterthanyou, earned a trip to my IGNORE list a few days back.

It makes the threads he is in look weird, but I would rather see nothing than his nonsense.

I keep forgetting that we have an "ignore" option.

BTW, you are quite the topic of interest on a thread over there. Do you really go by an alt of "Rock Strongo"?

 

[Chef99]

Whoops, never mind...I guess my naivete is showing...

No. It is just a now long running gag, mostly at my expense. And, to think, I thought that enough of the folks I wanted to avoid had left there, possibly giving me the opportunity to post there again.

Then, someone comes on and esentially calls me and my fantasy playing basically a bunch of bluster and bullshit, making it VERY clear to me that I am not wanted there.

I guess that is what I get by putting myself out as a fantay expert, and, not winning each and every league I join. I guess people forget, that when coming to me for advice or info, they get exactly what they pay for, in that I am not doing anything, and don't know more about fantasy baseball then the next guy. All I was doing was putting myself out there, and trying to help people as best I could when they asked me.

I also never saw anyone jump up / lump in to take my place, so, I thought I was doing a good service.

Not everyone thinks so it seems......
