[Scorpion]

HC, you need to re-pick... I wanted him! :)

Good pick! LOL

[laxref]

DAGGER OTC!

[bigmarc27]

Jeff Brinson was taken twice.

[laxref]

Sorry for the double pick, trying to work while I play! Choice corrected.

Stella: Who is the next big thing in the SEC and insurance for Mark Ingram?

Alex Trebek: You are right! It's Trent Richardson!

[Steebo]

You think so?:detective:

[seaone22]

i will be in training from 830 till about 1200 this morning doing some training so if i dont respond thats why.

[bigmarc27]

Bayou, what do you think of Keiland this year? In my admittedly very little experience watching LSU games last year, I actually thought he was the most impressive.

[seaone22]

man, i was going to backup my rbs but i was beaten to it.

[seaone22]

just seen after my first pick that james starks is done for the season with a torn labrum.

[mstella44]

boy did that backfire! oh my god!

[mstella44]

Thanks Seaone for taking the backup!

[mstella44]

Not to sound like a prick, but the fact that certain rounds drag on and then a guy is announced out and someone is rewarded for dragging their asses in the draft really is pissing me off! Sorry for the vent! But this is BS!

Unless you get everyone together and burn threw the entire thing, I don't know of a way to combat that sort of thing. I suppose you could do team RBs, but I've never really enjoyed that sort of set up.

You don't sound like a prick, this happens every year. It's like people get rewarded because they are up when a big announcement comes, whether it be suspension, injury, or the naming of a starter, although it is not always the ones who took a while to pick, it could be anyone. Richard Samuels got named the starter at Georgia, and someone drafted him shortly thereafter, for example.

But this is the best format for this league, you take the good with the bad. THese situations are the bad. I don't think I have ever been up when a big announcement has come down. And I always check various sites when it is my pick to see if someone got hurt, or a starter was named somewhere.

Nothing wrong with giving your opinion.

[laxref]

I will propose a trade: Quentin Castillo for James Starks. :rolleyes:

[Bayou Bengal]

Bayou, what do you think of Keiland this year? In my admittedly very little experience watching LSU games last year, I actually thought he was the most impressive.

Keiland would be a stud rb on any other team in the country...probably the best built running back on the team (speed, agility, and power). some think his only drawback is he slows up before he hits the hole.

that said...he plays with Charles Scott who is a beast and definitely doesnt slow up before he hits the hole...if he even needs one in the first place.

I would think he sees more carries than in the past...maybe 60% to Scott, 35% to Keiland, and 5% to the others....that being with both running at 100%.

kid has been my favorite tiger since we recruited him.

[mstella44]

That might be a good trade laxref!

Not just frustrated at Starks for my fantasy team, I'm an alum from there. Unless Highsmith's son is a reincarnation, they aint gonna win this year! Ugh!

[mstella44]

Of course Hog Chow takes Bolden! Because that was my pick! Give me 10 more minutes. I'm working on a new pick here.

[bigmarc27]

whoops... changed it.

[EMoney]

going to pick in a few. I have to get people out of here so I can research.

[EMoney]

Mstella needs to pick again, Blackmon's gone

[mstella44]

Sorry. I scanned the main list and scrolled Round 12 quick, but didn't it down at the bottom. Give me a few!

[bigmarc27]

Sorry. I scanned the main list and scrolled Round 12 quick, but didn't it down at the bottom. Give me a few!

I had Blackmon on my list for the last 5 rounds and kept putting it off... nearly did it again.

[laxref]

Steebo needs to pick again since Arkansas is not in the league this year. Ar-KANSAS?

[mstella44]

It's Seaone that needs to pick again, right? Been a rough round! At least I picked a guy on the list. Taken, but on the list! LOL.

[Hog Chow]

I sent Scott a text...

[seaone22]

my fault. wasn't paying attention.

[Hog Chow]

my fault. wasn't paying attention.

Hope that's not an issue when fighting a fire! :sadbanana:

[Hog Chow]

Steve is out in the field this afternoon, I sent him a text a bit ago.

[Justice]

Sorry for the delay got home and had the cut the grass before it started raining.

[laxref]

Jamad Williams was drafted by emoney in the 6th round:dunno:

[Scorpion]

Sorry for the delay got home and had the cut the grass before it started raining.

Can you do mine before it hits 110 degrees?????

[mstella44]

Did anyone text Bayou about the double pick?

[Hog Chow]

A bit of a homer pick...in my 15+ years of FF I have never taken a defense early and as a result have never had the Buckeye defense. Thought I'd shake it up a bit.

[mstella44]

Am I up to pick?

[Hog Chow]

I would think so. The rules are silent on something like this but typically a draft does not stop for a botched pick and the owner can simply make up the pick when he returns. The fact that E$ included hte words "Hog Chow OTC" in the subject line of the draft thread let me know that how he sees it too.

[mstella44]

OK cool. I'm gonna pick then.

[mstella44]

I went with Taylor because Zac Robinson's week off, Va. Tech plays Duke. Pretty decent matchup!

[Dagger2]

Just as a side note, I finally got my friends to do a fantasy NCAA league (utilizing basically the same rules as this one). Live draft, which was a disaster. But anyway, some people in the league did a lot of research, some did not (I provided each owner witha cheat sheet from a college website with ineligible teams crossed off.) Anyway, late in the draft someoneselected Taylor Tyrod. I was like, who is Taylor Tyrod? Then I realized he meant Tyrod Taylor. Trust me, this was funny when I was hammered. Or not. :dunno:

[Dagger2]

And also, a huge problem, like this league was owners picking players already drafted. Jeff Brinson and David Reed were taken about 7 times. and the great thing was, one of my friends was so drunk, he took Jeff Brinson one round, and then tried to draft him again 2 rounds later.

[mstella44]

LOL. He really likes Brinson, huh?

[Hog Chow]

I found Bayou's cell number and sent him a text.

[Hog Chow]

I heard back from Bayou and he said, "Crap. Skip me." :D

[EMoney]

I heard back from Bayou and he said, "Crap. Skip me." :D

ok, cool

I sent him an email last night and hadn't heard anything

[bigmarc27]

LOL. He really likes Brinson, huh?

JEWEL HAMPTON!!

[bigmarc27]

So, does this thing always slow to a crawl at the end?

[EMoney]

So, does this thing always slow to a crawl at the end?

Pretty much, yes.

[mstella44]

Text me when I come up, if someone would be so kind! At work right now until after midnight!

[Bayou Bengal]

crap dagger...seconds away from making that my repick

[Scorpion]

Scorp here with an update. I am leaving now for a pre-season NFL game so you can please text me and I may hear it. I'll check tonight before I leave. Go Cardinals! 8_28_09 5:22 p.m. AZ time
