    Week 20

    abuck1220 replied to bukie's topic in Fantasy Sports

    we've discussed this before, and sucking is not a reason for making a mid-week lineup change. obviously you can keep that RP open if you want, but i don't think you can replace gregg with someone else.

    right, and choking exists. clutch does not. Both involve the effect of pressure and emotion on the ability to perform. I don't see a big difference. there's a big difference. choking involves playing below your max ability. being clutch involves playing above your max ability, which isn't possible. if derek jeter is able to turn on the clutch for the playoffs, late inning situations, etc and hit .400, he should be able to do that all the time. and he can't.

    kyle, just because you don't choke once doesn't mean you're somehow immune to choking for all eternity. come on.

    jeez, that was a lot of typing for nothing. there is obviously a difference in pressure between the nlcs and rancho cucamonga. quit making dexter's ridiculous position look good by being even more ridiculous yourself.

    this is brutal to watch, you guys. choking exists. whether the cubs choked in '07, '08, i don't know. either way, none of this proves that clutch exists (which it doesn't).
  6. abuck1220
    Seriously? There's a discussion in a thread clearly identified and in the right forum. What's your problem with that? if a guy's not on his team on the ps3, he doesn't care about them.

    i can't decide what i like best about de la rosa's start. a) that it was on my bench. b) that it was against the cubs. c) that tracy left him in for a hundred and [expletive] twenty five pitches in an eight run game, meaning he'll probably pitch like [expletive] in his next start this week.

    in my face.

    You bring so much to this board it really is amazing. Do you contribute anything to this board other than being a smartass dick all the time? whoa

    Gosh, there are so many clear, well-thought out arguments in this thread as to why my stance is wrong that it looks like I have no other choice but to concede my point and admit defeat. finally.

    hi yankees, this is jim hendry calling about your 26 year old, .850 ops-ing 2b. i was wondering if we could just have him. yeah, that's right...will you just give him to us? i know you're in the middle of a pennant chase right now, but i thought maybe you'd be interesting in just handing us one of your most productive position players. no? ok, well just something my buddies at nsbb were floating around. i guess it does sound pretty stupid when you say it out loud. bye.

    FINALLY someone has the balls to just come out and say it.

    stick to irrational game thread hissy fits, please.

    [expletive], quite the pitching matchups this week for the nccubs. i think he has a couple starts against the boise hawks.

    yeah, with all the bad luck you've had this year, you were bound to catch a break.

    it all comes down to this. one game back of nccubs for the last playoff spot and we face off this week. unfortunately, i have 38 starts to choose from and i will inevitably choose poorly. de la rosa v. chc de la rosa @ fla hamels @ atl hanson v. wash wells v. pitt pelfrey @ ar pelfrey v. sf danks @ sea danks @ oak baker v. cle

    why is this a thread?

    Waivers

    abuck1220 replied to Tim's topic in Fantasy Sports

    i don't like this process. i think a better way to to do it is to post proposed trades and then if people want to nix them by claiming the players involved, then so be it. nobody has time to make waiver claims on 300 players or whatever.

    i benefit from you and todd playing each other. i wish chuck would have used seven starts this week instead of five. actually, i wish he would have used three and NOT used the two that combined for -45. he could have won with three starts this week...
