Hey *******, get off Dah's back.  You're just making yourself look like a moron, and I know you're not a moron. 

Wrong again

Eh, par for the course.....being married makes me wrong often.

Hey *******, maybe if the picks got put into the taken players it wouldn't happen.  Plank still isn't listed amongst the taken pitchers last time I checked.  I'm sorry i didn't bother checking the position players list for the guy I wanted who has 0 position player seasons in the database...

When you grow up, you'll learn to take responsibility for your own dumbassery, until then, there's not much anyone can do for you.

We'll go with CRAIG KIMBREL- P please

Late picks:
Team 1: Red Rolfe, Stephen Strasburg
Team 2: Sergio Romo, Neftali Feliz

Rolfe is still not listed on the first page, let's get with it please!

Same thing happened with Mike Scott in UNO repeatedly.  I wound up wasting my reverse card on a first baseman from a loaded franchise because Mike Scott never made it into the taken players.  I've been checking to make sure all the guys I pick wind up on the lists, but I'm not going to check every pick from every round before I pick every time...

The multiple times with Scott was tomjames and me joking about the original complaint, not us making the same mistake. Everyone else seems able to go back to the last post indicating the board was updated, search all the way through those one or two pages for the name he wants, then do the same on the first page. All told, it takes almost a full minute. Command-F is a magical thing, capable of erasing mistakes with players listed in the wrong position or in the wrong pick. I've heard that an ability to search is even coming to phones in the next century. The only way that step doesn't prevent user error is if the player's name is misspelled in two places on the first page, and was missed when the last update was done.

Sorry I didn't check back to Scott's wild card selection THREE DAYS earlier...

Again, if you had simply done a search on the first page for Scott, he would have popped up in the round by round list of picks. If you can't be bothered to type Command-F and "Scott" don't expect anyone else to share your criticism. Mistakes get made in every manually done draft, and owners need to take the teeniest bit of responsibility. I just timed it and it takes 5 seconds to open the first page, search for "Scott", and go back to post the pick. I usually go all out and expand the needed time for this arduous task to 7 seconds by also typing in the guy's first name, just in case of a spelling mistake.

Apology accepted.

Roger Conner for 2nd team

Eddie Mathews for 1st team

I recognize that mistakes happen, and that bothers me a whole lot less than the fact that all of you who have been around longer than I have can't pull your heads out of one another's ***** long enough to admit it.
