Re: future auction thread

The "+1 bid" button reacts too quickly; last year was better. There were a couple of times last night when a guy would go for, say, 8, I would want him at 9 but no higher but then someone else right before me steps in and bids 9 and as I click I get 10 when I never would have taken him at 10.

Re: $250 dc auction draft Saturday Jan 23 730 pm(sold out)

I forget... When do we determine the draft order of the 27 other rounds? Before or after the auction?

Re: The Loss of a Friend

Eagles fans that have not seen the 2013 "History of the Eagles" documentary make a point of checking it out. Amazing amount of talent in one group that certainly left a lasting impression on millions of fans. I watched it on Netflix. Bernie Leadon looks like a bouncer - looks nothing he did when he...

Re: Manager Tendencies

Does anyone know of a site that describes current MLB managers tendencies (coaching styles), especially as it pertains to fantasy baseball? E.G. which managers like to steal, which like platooning, playing veterans over rookies, etc. Thanks The annual Bill James Handbook has this data. Baseball Inf...

Re: 9 Spots Left: NFBC $400 Draft Champions 1

If this turns into a 4-day fast league I can't fully commit. Between work, a birthday party, and a vacation coming up in the next week-plus I have to drop. I was hoping we would've started this one a few weeks ago.

Although it wasn't all in the majors, Correa went 30/30 with a sustainable BABIP and HR/FB rate. And he's a shortstop.

Give it time.

Not everyone in your DC league are on these boards know what's in store.

Re: Drafts Slots vs Overall Finish

A good drafter can overcome the intrinsic advantage from an early draft spot. But, there is, on paper, an advantage to the early spots. The reason is the difference in production between players is not linear. The players at the top have the largest delta. I like to think of it as the slinky effect...

Re: $250 DC AUCTION- Tues Jan 19 8 pm EST-(9 spots)

That day works fine for me, but given the time it would be better if we start closer to 7pm EST if possible, unless West Coasters protest. These things will last four-plus hours.

Re: Don't Do A Slow Draft With . . .

Mother. Fucker. I had the "pleasure" of doing a DC with this asshole last year. If people remember, he went by the name of "Yellow LedBetter" on the message boards and Tom and Greg had to shut this message board down a day in order to kick him out. I figured there was no way he would be allowed back...

Re: Drafts Slots vs Overall Finish

After about the first three rounds, any owner can grab any player they want in a draft. The only slots where a player is going to be linked to the pick are going to be first two or three picks. If those guys have good seasons, then those owners should be okay. If not, then they suffer. The results o...

Re: Drafts Slots vs Overall Finish

A few issues with the data. One minor, one a little more important. First, different years had a different number of participants so the straight-up average, while close, is a little skewed. What I did was take the difference from the average of the year, so if you use the 2011 to 2015 dataset, the ...

Re: Win $40,000 In The 2016 NFBC Cutline Championship

Todd - Check your labeling. F-Rod is in the right slot but would've had 390 points last year.
