This will be one league to get a laugh from the posts for those of us in leagues where we might never get to four pages. Ugh, broke up with gf last week (she was getting in the way of my fantasy baseball prep), which meant liquor this week. Anybody have a Tylenol? [/QUOTE]Never reveal your weaknesses bjoak. You just gave us two bullets.

[/QUOTE]Not really. 1. I don't have feelings. 2. I would get loaded at every draft in Vegas and screw it up, except that I have a tiny bladder and am therefore forced to dehydrate myself prior to and during the draft so I can make it through ten rounds.

I'm starting to think you'd make a good character on "Family Guy". In fact, I think all of LV3 could probably do a guest appearance, episode "fantasy baseball". Is there a comedy script writer in the crowd.

Hey Bradley Miller from Arizona - I'll trade you the #10 pick in LV4 for the #10 pick in this league.

Can we still get Schinker to bring a couple cases of beer to the draft?

I'd be willing to bet THIS is the league where Ambrosius' mustache FINALLY wiggles.

I've been watching it out of the corner of my eye for 5 years now... I KNOW it's gonna move, I just KNOW it.

Dyv Somehow, I dont think the stache would let that one fly. Anyway I like the looks of this league, lots of talk, little walk.

...but after that...as we say...You get the "flow" going...and the bathroom breaks are more like every 3rd beer.

Am I going to have to bring a partition, John...to keep you from looking at my cheat sheet...you're pretty tall!

YOU KNOW you'll be peeking!

I've mastered the skills to finish 10th of 15 each year!

~Lance [/QUOTE]Don't sell yourself short there Lance. You're a tremendous slouch! BTW, you finished 9th last year.

I can tell you one thing for sure. Nothing would mess up what I need to execute than looking at yours or anyone else's cheat sheet.

I'm ready to rock. Just the minor tweaks of this week's games are left.

WTF?

My local witch doctor claimed it would ease the hangover caused by Russian whiskey.

~Lance [/QUOTE]See...I can't even quote or edit right it's so bad.

Lance, I just fell of the balcony.

sportsbettingman · Post by **sportsbettingman** » Sat Mar 08, 2008 5:10 pm

What I did today could be funny if worked into a "Vegas Vacation" type film...

We have distant family members coming to visit soon, and they've never met my kids...the type that comes around like once every 10 years.

I thought it would be funny, and I spend a little part of today teaching my 7 year old how to "fake stutter"...and I mean sell it.

(with the head tilting back, and the eyes looking around...and only on certain words that begin with M or P or R or T, and the like)

He's getting pretty good...and I hope he can pull it off for like the first hour they are here...then laugh it off as a joke!

Greg set a 6-page quota before Vegas, we're pacing ourselves.

And I'm busy studying how many rounds early I have to take Zambrano - ADP says 6th, so to be safe maybe I grab him in the 3rd?

Not true KJ. I set the Over/Under at 6 pages, not a quota. I obviously underestimated you folks as I'll now take the Over. This may be the most original main event league we've had during our first five seasons.

Lance, you'll get $1300 worth of entertainment just from this league.

Good luck all.

Just a general question...

For some reason

I can't recall exactly how the tables are set up.

At pick #5...am I on the corner of the table with pick #1, or with pick #6? (Is it 5,5,5?)

Will I see Eddie at pick #11 directly across from #5, or will he be in line with me facing the draft board?

I forget.

Lance, it's 1-5, 6-10, 11-15, so yeah, you'll be facing Eddie. I should really make an excuse to set KDS for the beginning or end every time. I have a harder time seeing the names from the middle.

~Lance Lance, you'll be on the West Coast, looking straight across at Eddie on the East Coast.

~Lance Okay, a mundane question like this is just trying to push the page total above 6. Lance has bet the Over on this thread FOR SURE!!!

And yes, you'll be looking right into Eddie's eyes for 4+ hours. Enjoy.

Plan #1...quickly grow my hair out, and comb it over to the side ala Steve Austin, and keep my bionic eye on bionic Bigfoot!

Plan #2...research the web for some west coast gang signs to throw at Dom and his "top down" cowboys hat!

SUCKAS STEP BACK!

Dyv,

On behalf of LV3, let me formally invite you to stop by during the breaks and toss around your witty humor. Stuff like "if you draft Carlos Delgado you will contract a disease and get put in a box, even before he ruins your BA or his knees give out"

eddiejag · Post by **eddiejag** » Mon Mar 10, 2008 1:47 pm

East Coast rules , Dom will be wearing his colors and listening to JZ.Actually are colors are Dallas Cowboy blue .We will have are Cowboy colors on all weekend. Do not trade Marion Barber , pound for pound the best football player in the World.
