Mike Lamb 276 (no runner-up bid) Obvious signs of a rookie.



Advantage, 2 and 3 year NFBC vets.

I agree STATS hasn't been perfect. However, they have been accomodating to minor changes requested by Greg/Tom. Some features that we enjoy today weren't around the first season. Kudos for that.



As far as inputing draft results, I might be wrong, but doesn't the Krause staff handle that chore?

Originally posted by DOUGHBOYS: Only ten active players have accomplished 30-30, top of your head can you name them? Hint, two of them currently play for the same team. Let's see - Bonds, ARod, Guerrero, Soriano, and Abreu are obvious ones. Are you counting Sosa as an active player? How about L. Wal...

Originally posted by Buster: Meat Loaf is listed on the IMDB web site as both "Marvin Aday," and "Michael Aday." I am assuming that Marvin and Michael are one in the same, but will have the column edited to reference Michael instead. Thanks for the heads up. Buster Just "bustin'" your balls! :D But ...

Doughboys' comments = tongue in cheek



Rodger's comments = serious as cancer



Hey, I'm glad the prizes are autographed items. I thought Greg had mentioned Tri Star Promotions. I was afraid we were getting foam fingers.

Nice article, decent team.



But who's "Marvin" Aday.

Once again, Monday.

Originally posted by : We were shocked when Johan wasn't taken by 4, then 5, then 6, and so on...guess our league doesn't believe in taking a pitcher in the first round...but we do, at pick 13! Anyone else get him at 13 or lower? Well, yes. From the 10th spot, we landed D. Lee in the first round and...

Great job, as always, Greg!

Scott and Mike run excellent contests out there at Fantasy Jungle. Give them a shot and extend your baseball season.



See you in the Jungle!

Good luck to the 5 teams vying for the $100K! That's one hell of a close race this far into the season.



LV #4 has its own photo finish as 3 of us are within 0.5 of each other and the $5K. Should make for an entertaining last two weeks of the baseball season.

It's not a broken leg, but I think a torn back muscle doesn't bode well even for a baseball player. All indications point to Sheets being out for the year. So yes, you did miss something. You still in contention?

Greg, I'm all for a FBA league. And I'm fairly sure that I can get some buddies to join up. These are the same guys who can't grind out a full FLB season and think FFL has too much luck involved. How about an auction league? Out of all of the major fantasy sports, this is the one where I definitely ...

Curious to know what specific problems occurred with the drafts?

Just checked the FAAB this week and came across this in our league, LV #4:



Team Snyder Octavio Dotel 102



Strange but true.

Originally posted by bjoak: What's interesting to me is that no one would have criticized me if I took Santana at pick 9. He's a virtual clone of Sheets. Except that Sheets has even more potential since he was pitching in pain last year. He's also pitching in the NL, good for a half-run better ERA g...

I want my medal!!!



That's about all I'm going to get with this league. Chalk it up as a learning experience.



Props to Mr. Ambrosius for convincing me to do this league. I told him I'd be a better "sticker guy" than a participant.



Hojin

LV #4 looks to be correct, rosters at least. The free agent list still needs work.



STATS will get things corrected.



Thanks Tom.



Hojin

I believe this is the LV #2 mixed auction league.



Also, I predict I will finish last in this league as I have Bonds ($28) and Borowski ($9).
