In 2 out of 13 leagues, you would have won 2nd place. Subtract the entry fee, and you're not making much. Regarding a Top 10 finish "with a little luck," the perfect scenario in last year's contest was still over 100 points behind the 10th place finisher. It just seems like a flawed logic to think t...

I know that this strategy is not new, but after looking over the numbers, I just don't see how people think it can result in success.

After an objective comparison, Three tiers exist in NY League 2... Top Group... middle of draft order did well... should produce winner: Team 6 Team 7 Team 8 Team 10 Team 12 Middle Group... should produce a solid sleeper: Team 1 Team 4 Team 5 Team 11 Team 15 Bottom Group: Team 2 Team 3 Team 9 Team 1...
