rip away.... Week 1:

Arod falling to #4 is a street corner stickup

Ellsbury all the way to #26 is a highway robbery

I think Werth in round 3 qualifies as a Ponzi scheme

Sometimes you don't have to study harder to get luckier - just be in the right league

hated to see a rod fall to rt. but then again, at the 4 spot, he was guaranteed a super stud. pained me to pass ellsbury, but i liked j upton at 25.

rt is certainly a force. i'd wish him luck, but the only luck i'm really wishing him is bad

Upton as Justin Upton at #25? Care to elaborate how that happened?

Week two looks phenomenal to me. Week one, not.

RedRyder · Post by **RedRyder** » Mon Mar 29, 2010 8:11 am

When I first compared the two teams, I liked Week 2 much better. But, now, just comparing them again, my lean is Week 1. Although I'm no fan of your 3rd & 4th SPs. I think your Week 1 is kinda sneaky, not sexy, good. And I'll take sneaky good every time! I still have more drafts, so I don't want to name names, but in Week 1 there were a couple players I had hoped would be on our roster and not yours!!

Diamond team please.

And I will wish you good luck as opposed to bad, because when I beat you, I want to be able to say I beat RT at full strength!!!

Rick,

Nice teams overall.

After I saw your Ultimate draft last year, I admittedly was not impressed. Then you went out and won the whole thing!

These teams look MUCH better (I like team 1, 2, and Diamond in that order), so if I were in any of your leagues, I would be VERY afraid!

Good luck (like you really need any! )

thanks waz for sharing. you are spot on!! my ult team was an embarrassment BUT it goes to show it takes alot more to win an event than to JUST draft a team(bad) as we know.

i agree with you assessment, the diamond league was a biatch!!! i am short on power bigtime. i need s rodriquez to come thru...a risk.. i know but maybe he could pull a zobrist. i was really hoping and was tageting swisher and he got nabbed 2 spots before my pick. believe it or not mix him in to the ci spot and my power becomes a contender(i could take the ba hit in my eyes). it was a weird draft because 2 teams punted sp...yikes . good luck and thanks for taking a look and posting
