Re: Great Job Yesterday NFBC Greg, Tom and Crew

I'd be more than happy to put up with the problems, if only the State of Washington would let me. sigh! :cry:

Re: Trout To DL

All the talk about head first slides got me to thinking about Rickey Henderson. He was a head first slider. 1406 SB and 335 CS. That's 1741 times going head first. He stole 130 one year. I think his best year though was 1986. 130 runs, 28HR, 74 RBI, 87 SB, and 263 Avg. The average is the funny thing...

I'll stop by after the Afternoon AL Auction Draft. I'll be dragging along my legal age son. So you can charge me for two.

Re: Batting Average vs. OBP: Let's Discuss For The NFBC

I'm for Batting AVG. OBP as a replacement is a Ron Shandler Ploy. He changed the Trout wars to this format. It gave his invite games a change from the Labr leagues.

Fantasy Sports Magazine

As often happens I was looking for something else and came across some old Fantasy Sports Magazines. I never did find what I was looking for as I sorta got side-tracked. Looking through the 20th season(April 2009) edition You have David Wright on the cover with the question does he deserve to be thi...

Selected Hotel for Las Vegas Draft?

The Trophy wife is the same with the green tint as the Statue of Liberty. The sunglasses are bio-focal and the tan is really age spots blending together. I see you found yourself in the playground though. :D

Smack Talkers! Who is the new breed?

I know Greg always hated the bickering that broke out in the past. I've been gone and now back. Is there no talkers? Unlike Greg I always enjoyed the banter. I myself never got involved with it. But it was fun to read. Guys like Gekko where the true cause of trouble. That Walla Walla guy was pretty ...

Re: FSTA lobbyist

We're waiting here in Washington state to see what they do in the next week or so. Daily Fantasy Games have really hurt any chances of anything passing though. They've watered down whats being proposed here to a season long contest with no more than 50 entries and an entry fee of no more than $50.00...

State Laws on Fantasy sports

Bought a mag on fantasy football called Fantasy football index. The editor's note pointed out that they are headquartered in Washington State.

Don't ever compare War with Fantasy Sports. To do so is an insult to all that have fought and died for our country.

Gekko for the Hall of Fame. I have no vote for the HOF. But if I did Mark would get it. Not knocking any others but Mark has been there from the beginning. His play has been great. His posts on the board almost as good as mine. Sometimes it's not just about stats of a sport. It's helping grow that s...
