Note to self remove Zaleski from that list. Hey Chestnutsack, you're still on the ego larger than GG list
[/QUOTE]Oh John I am in a good mood cuz my dawgs are wippin Hawaii- so I will not talk about how we all get a kick out of you thinking you have the perfect team every year and tell everyone about it and then get waxed. Beat me at something John 0-2 head to head, and 0-3 in the main- and my napkin math says it has never been close. You do wonders for my ego... [/QUOTE]Chestnutsack,
LOL.. interesting comments after you initiated two unsolicited PM's with me early last year.
I don't think I can help that ego, honestly, but I will try.
I'll go GG here and post this from 4/11/07....I tried to reply back at the time, but your box was full. Thanks for the other PM thread where we talked #6 and #15 strategy before the season. I took the closer as you said I should.
"Congrats

BTW, I was in 29th and 3 pts behind Kenyon early August when Bonderman, Bedard, and Shields went south. No shame at all losing to Dan Kenyon.
A complete waxing for sure!!!
To me, we're competing against several hundred of the top owners in the country, and finishing 50th, 150th or 250th is all the same to me. If you don't cash, BFD where you finish. There are many owners much better then I that had crappier seasons. My season clicked well until 8/15. We play until 10/1.
I enjoy NFFC just as much as NFBC, so the second I was out of it, all energies except for lineup changes to stay ahead of Lance went to FB. Had a decent year. Thanks for the help GG and Jules.
Childs, Thomas and Stephenson duo are the only guys I really think are head and shoulders above the rest that I've competed against. GG repeats, I'll put him up there, I know he's working hard for it.
As far as talking after the draft, of course I love it!! I've been conducting drafts since 1984! I love looking at the different boards and strategies. I get my jollies off on that like you do with your put down posts of everyone. You know how brilliant they make you look, right?
I also get valuable info doing this. I told you in my PM I was worried about power out of the 15 hole and after-draft comments backed that up. Jumped all over Braun when he was waived three weeks before call up.
I don't recall posting a ton here last year, but I did just look up the two threads where guys post there teams after the draft... This is all I could really find.. Did I really compliment Bjoak? LOL.

John, love the Sizmore/Rollins combo. Those guys should get over 1200 AB's with serious production. Thanks.. I had decided last Wed that I knew I was going to get Rollins no matter what.
I talked to about 10 owners that had #14/15 last year and this year on Friday and the guys that did well last year all had the same thing in common - Rollins.
Then on draft day, I run into Zola, and he tells me he's taking Rollins at #9, and KJ who says he's taking him at #6. Besides Bjoak, are there any others out there that crunch the numbers harder?
If Sizemore turns his 55 doubles into a few more HR this year, then he's a #5-7 pick next year. [/QB][/quote]
That was a fun thread to read. Some of your comments about H.Ramirez are quite interesting. Luckily, I never made a note to myself to read them when they were written LOL. But let's stop with the hijack of GG's thread.
OK, so I'm in the minority about Mathis and his AB's. Even if I'm wrong, Napoli will not help your BA if he gets those 400 AB's being predicted.
