Pardon the delay. When I for work we had no momentum and weren't close enough to my pick for any proxy other than '77 Lamp which wouldn't have advanced us anyway as he was taken ahead of my pick. Not all of us have internet access at work and have to rely on spotty 3G coverage to try and check in at which time we still weren't any closer to my pick. Anyway this will all be moot now with the schedule starting tomorrow.

I don't remember season 1 being this agonizing. This salary cap has me scratching my head and my nuts!

To be fair the salary cap wouldn't be quite so agonizing without ronthegenius living up to his name with the Whitehill nomination. Wonder if anyone is gonna be brave enough to tank the rest of their team to grab that $17 mil Ruth?

The thing I find tough is balancing out my roster...do you draft for teammates early, knowing you may have to cut one or two (and possibly making a pick useless), or do you get some high-priced mandatory guys out of the way first and kill your draft position. Be interesting to see which strategies work here
5/5/2010 12:06 PM
You must also factor in that "waiting" for teammates also means that the best teammate options may be gone by the time you want to draft them (i.e., SP-teammates are getting sucked up quickly).

Thinking about all of this makes my head hurt.

Very much like 3-D chess. Doesn't get much better than this draft. Then the season starts and we sink into oblivion

Sorry. Been in meeting all morning. Let's go with 1920 Sisler. No time to sitemail
