TQ Stats issues

Our local league got fed up with TQ and moved to CBS sportsline. Originally posted by Cooperstown: I'm in a couple of local leagues and we've used TQ Stat's for years w/o any problems. There is a rumor going around that they've changed their commissioner service format and there are problems. If any...

Fantasy Rookie, rate my team? help a Dyv out?

Comments? Your personal hygiene needs work and Michigan sucks. Team-wise: As with most teams, could use some speed and I also fear playing the SP match game all season. That leads to SP getting shutouts against the Yankees and getting killed by the Royals. On the whole, above average, which is what ...

Seeing other draft results

Guys



How soon will we able to see the draft results of the main event? I'd love to compare between them.

Todd Zola Will Chat Today At 2 PM EST

In my experience mocking and drafting a satellite, the middle picks (5-7) offer the tail end of discernible tiers of players, so that's where I'd want to be. Picking 15th, I was left to hope at the end of round 3 that someone would drop 6-8 picks. 15th, 14th are bad unless you like the grab-the-top-...

1. Obviously kahutz was a joke, but I'm sure it ticked off a couple owners who passed on Howard. Was just a surprise to see, but I'm sure there will be several still to come.

Huge trap game this week at tough Michigan State. Wisconsin had better not look ahead to Sunday and mail it in v. the Spartans.

Things to improve MockDraftCentral

Also, when you look at All Completed Drafts, and you narrow the selection down by # of teams or sport, when you use the link to see more results, the next page forgets your narrowing criteria. Thus it is impossible to look at completed drafts given your criteria past the initial results page. (Using...

Week 9 Gekko_Jeopardy

Who is Ryan Howard? Howard, slated to bat immediately ahead of Pat Burrell, finds himself all too happy to take the free pass so that Burrell can strike out to end the inning. Howard, now a known feared masher instead of a happy go lucky 2nd year player, receives different treatment from opponent pi...

Ron, thanks for your time.



Wilson Betemit shows promise in the Forecaster, but it appears he receives no respect in 2007 mocks.



What about him do you like? Do you expect to adjust his forecast this spring?

Again with the Barry Bonds, Dyv? I know how hard it is, after my hamster died, I stared at his cage and wished he'd come back to life. It never happened for Bubbles, it's not going to happen for Bonds.
