Another week, another single digit deficit going into the last day. This time, at least, I have pitching starts.
-
Or...the 31st pick, even.
-
No offense but if you weren't here through the horrible years you don't deserve to be here for the good years soon to come. Yes, an obvious time to bandwagon jump. Not in the Montana/Rice/Young years, that would be too obvious. Real bandwagon jumpers jump for the Alex Smith/Michael Crabtree combo.

Nicks to the Giants at 29, which leaves Britt as the next best receiver available. I'm really doubting at this point Britt falls to the 49th pick.
-
Still somehow up 6 with a 2-1 start advantage the rest of the week and an outclassed roster. Still need good offense and pitching outings to hold on.

The Bears are paying Cutler just over 1 million in salary this year. Orton is going to make 995,000 this year. So, really, in the Orton-Cutler exchange, the Bears are out about 10k.
-
Mental note: Avoid Larry Fitzgerald and Pittsburgh D in fantasy draft.
-
All I need now is 3-4 more breaks, and I may actually win this week.
-
Yeah, not sure whether that's a good thing or bad thing, but I'll find out later tonight. Didn't want to activate Zimmerman too soon, and that's already cost me a decent start from him. On the flip side, anyone interested in a SS or OF? :)
-
What. I had no idea there were so many 14-year-old posters that had no memory prior to 2000.
-
At least I probably won't lose by one point this week.
-
No, the NBA doesn't work like that. Even if it did, that would mean the Bulls would play Cleveland. Thankfully, it doesn't, so the Bulls would play Philly. I thought the NBA started reseeding after the 1st round recently? Or did they stop doing it recently? Or am I just crazy and Im just making stuff up? :D Making stuff up. The NHL started that practice recently.

2111 and 2112 first round picks. That is a future I would not mind mortgaging. Your grandkids will forever rue the Anquan Boldin deal, however. I'd mortgage bukie's grandkids' future for Anquan Boldin. Any day of the week. The child in my avatar is already crying about it.

So far, in 2 weeks I've lost by 2 points, and tied.

-65 points for one of my opponent's pitchers and I could still lose if his last starter is even decent.

similarities between the cubs this yr and the brewers in 08
bukie replied to loukycub's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Let's play this game slightly differently... Similarities between the Cubs this year and the Cubs last year, after 10 games: - Team was 6-4 and challenging for the division - Team was in second, a game behind St. Louis - Team outscored their opponents by 8 runs total over 10 games (well, only 4 in 2008 to this point) - Bullpen blew 2 games late, lost one game in the 10th - Major bullpen concerns about a shaky closer with a ERA around 9 and a lefty that can't get anyone out - Kosuke is a hitting machine - Concerns about an expensive starting corner OF not hitting and being hurt (well, last year it took 13 games for the corner OF to be hurt) -
Pure luck that my pitching finally started turning around as soon as I posted that it blows. Still, with average pitching you'd be wiping the floor with me. I'm not sure who that is wearing Marco Scutaro's jersey this week, though.

I'm greedy. Anaheim, St. Louis, and Columbus, please.

I expected Ichiro to get back into action slowly. Apparently I was wrong.
-
You have to be aggressive down 3 in the ninth when your run is basically meaningless.
-
Tends to happen when a team is in a lot more games and is patient at the plate, creating a lot of scoring chances.
