Round, you're doing pretty good for a rookie.


For sure. Your team has been picking up steam the last couple of weeks.

Halfway there.

Looks like right now about 5 teams are fighting for the all important bye spots. (I think the byes will be important because I think any of the top teams can knock off another on any given week).

Then you've got 4 more teams scratching and clawing for the last playoff spot or two.

Should be a great second half...especially if we keep the smack going.
We can't expect much from the dull witted people like Jammer, but the rest of us can pull his weight...although it's quite a bit of weight as you can see:

Your last pitcher threw one inning in relief to tie me in WHIP and your last batter scored a run after his last at bat to take the runs category. Lady luck was kind to you. She must realize that the two of you share similar tastes in the lingerie you wear.

Curse you Red Baron. I'll get you next time.

Yeah, I was very happy to see the 3 homers yesterday. I already had that category firmly in hand by Sunday though. I wish he would have hit them today.

Utley is the guy I need to wake up. Last week was the worst slump of his career. He'll be fine though. Anyhow, he's my favorite player so I've got faith.

Marmol got bombed on your end, but he's Mr. reliable. You'll love his consistency. I don't know why the Cubbies don't make him their main reliever. If so, his value skyrockets.

Berkman and Kendrick also had nice batting averages and lots of hits last week. I could have used those big time! :yellowprison: Berkman is on the verge of having one of the greatest fantasy seasons ever. It hurt to let him go. I wouldn't have done it for anyone but Utley.

Alright people, I don't have a son in this league that can use his high waiver priority to pickup a recently dropped player and then trade him to me to fill a hole (:pound::pound::pound::pound:), so I'm looking to make a trade.

I'm looking to improve my pitching stats (of course it doesn't help that I have 3 pitchers on the DL). Specifically, I'm looking to improve my Wins, Ks, ERA and WHIP.

My closer Brian Wilson is on the trading block. I don't really want to mess with my position players too much, but I'd be willing to move Carlos Gomez, David Murphy, Casey Kotchman, Alfonso Soriano or Eric Byrnes (the last 2 are currently on the DL) in a deal to get better in the above mentioned pitching categories.

Hit me up if you're interested in making a deal.

I just want to say

YOU GUYS totally SUCK!!!!

I most likely won't win this week. So that will make 5 consecutive weeks I have either tied or lost close matches. I'm in a major slump. :cold:
How the hell am I still in first place? (That could change after today...but I'm just sayin').

Doggone it, I was doing better when I was plagued with injuries.

I could do this and beat you losers with my eyes closed. I probably should...I couldn't do any worse than I actually am! :pound:

I love my team, though. Lots of Phillies and stocked with my favorite guys.


Roscoe is super consistent....that's almost an oxymoron. Jammer will be even tougher when he gets healthy. Bill has made some great pickups (for him and his kid...and for him FROM his kid):MusicBigGrin:. Whichever team gets the sixth spot (four teams are currently battling for it) will not be easy by any means. This thing is totally up for grabs. Lotsa fun!

Only 8 weeks to go after today. Time is flying as we enter the stretch. Hang on to your hats...










Well, at this rate, I'll make the playoffs without a problem but I can look forward to a first round exit.:sssh:

BillLaimbeer

This could be fun with only a 3-day week. Good luck setting your starting pitchers everyone!!

Darth Tater
08-24-2008, 02:23 PM
It's been very quiet in here. One week plus ONE day to go in the regular season. That day (today) is big because in this league the whole week can (and often does go topsy turvy on the last day of the week).

I doubt it matters if you get a bye which one you get because any of these teams in the playoffs can beat anyone. It's crazy close. That's why a bye is big. You don't want to play week one if you don't absolutely have to.

So what can we look forward to? A few teams will clinch this week. Nobody has clinched yet.

Playoff contenders most likely...

Darth's Phillies...Pretty much led the league from start to finish despite a nine week or so non-winning streak (if you don't count a big win in the all star shortened week). The real Phillies were slumping and therefore so was I. Luckily most of my matches were close. I'll be in the playoffs, and I've got a good shot at one of the byes. My pitching has kept me alive.

Jammer...No pitching but real good hitting. Been at the top all year. Pretty consistent. 1st place? It looked bad early in the week for Jammer, but he's taken the lead on Lambs kid.

Laimbeer...League champ? Will he get the bye? Will he take first place from Darth next week. Great pitching and flavor of the week hitting makes him streaky but very dangerous. Working that waiver wire tough. Good job.

Lambs kid...Dangerous but streaky...but aren't we all. I think Dad is helping. Outside chance at a bye...looked like he was going to get one early in the week.

Roscoe...So consistent early. Not good lately. Will he make the playoffs? Gonna be close.

Round...The rookie started slow but is looking good for a playoff spot. But having a tough week. He needs to tighten it up today. Great first year.

Gazoo...Wow..the green guy is HOT! He came out of nowhere and is a strong threat for one of the last two spots. Nice comeback.

One of these teams will miss the championship round.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
Consolation round most likely

Bezeach...Has struggled all year, but keeps trying.

Wart...Made a huge trade with Darth but no other waiver moves all year. Looks good some weeks, but the slow start killed him.

Mikhail...Good job sticking with it but better luck next year.

Great job by everyone. Nobody quit setting their lineup or making moves and the good sportsmanship is much appreciated by everyone...

The playoffs will be nuts. I have no clue which team comes out on top.

Jammer has 21 guys on his sorry baseball team.

Your team is playing well, but you ran into a team playing even better.

At this moment, stat tracker has you tied with Round for the last spot. He would win the tie break based on either wins or this weeks record. In other words, hang in there green man. You're still very much alive...

Who knows...


According to stat tracker, it's close for a few. REAL close.

I'll list a couple of the closer ones. Others could happen, but it would be unlikely.

5th (plays Lambs kid 1st round) Gazoo ---------
6th (plays Lambs or Jam 1st round) Roscoe 1 game behind Gazoo
7th (misses playoffs) Round 1 game behind Roscoe

So a single category for you or in another contest today give or take determines much.

Good luck to all.







---------------------------------------------------------------------

Battle for playoff bye #2

2nd Jammer--------------
3rd Lambs 1 game behind Jammer

----------------------------------------------------------------------



In the case of a tie to get into the playoffs (not in head to head once you're in) I think the computer gives it to whoever had the better record that particular week.



So, that would favor Jammer & Roscoe, and maybe Round if there was a tie.

I love stats...

i made some huge tactical mistakes to start the season, the old style of play i did well by just forgetting a thing or two... like saves and whip... if i had half way decent pitching across the board i would have done alot better. 1 point a week and you go from first to last just about... every point counts... and thanks to all those for the help they gave me all season long, if i havn't made it clear before now just want to say it again i do appreciate any and all help.

I wanted to avoid Bill's kid's team at all costs. He's a terrible match up for me and really his season numbers make him a lot better than where he ended up. I knew I was going to be in some deep trouble this week.

Anyhow, on Monday my pitcher came within a couple of strikes of a complete game but couldn't do it. I thought then that was going to come back and bite me later and I still think so.

Regardless, through some quirk in the schedule, my players play a lot more games than Bill Jr. this week, but he's still somehow managing to kick my butt. Kudos.

You should go into business. Make the owners of the real teams pay you NOT to draft (curse) their players. I'm sure those injuries are killing them too!

Seriously though, I know it totally sucks. I remember Slippy getting killed like this with injuries in basketball before, but it's crazy. I've been hit before, but not as bad as that. I was able to scratch and claw and finish respectably, but my season was shot.

Thanks Green guy. I know I was truly lucky to squeeze in there because the league is so competitive.

As far as playing Jammer, I've got nothing but respect for him as a person and fantasy manager. So while I would like nothing more than to pummel his team's butt into the ground, I would be proud to display the silver too.

Baseball thoughts:

1. What the heck? Bill's kid has an incredible batting week against me...had like 80 hits and flirted with .500 ALL week. It's a small miracle I edged past him (Thank you pitching).

So he plays Roscoe this week and yesterday goes 1 for 22 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean, WTF? :pound: Today he is 1 for 5 so far. I'm starting to get a complex...


2. Sparky Anderson always said that there was a lot of pressure in the league championship series, but none in the World Series. Just have fun

So Jammer is kicking my butt early (still very early), but honestly, I'm really just happy to have made it this far no matter the end results.:MusicBigGrin:

Jammer, what happened to that crap pitching you had last week???


Oh, and thanks for all those pm's telling me you guys are rooting for me to KILL Jammer. I've copied a couple but removed your names to keep it anonymous.




"Hey Darth,

My son and I both know you will beat him down good. We both loved the easy wins against him this season. Gotta run...I think one of my football players just slipped in the locker room and broke his ankle"




"Hi DT,

Just taking time out from putting on my makeup to tell you to crunch that Hoser. Even though I am also Canadian, I am rooting for you all the way...Baby boy."



"Darth,

This is my first year in the league. I may not join next year if that JERK Jammer beats you. Go Darth!!"

After reading so many folks telling me that making the semi finals is failure... I didn't think we should say nice job to anybody but the Champion :stirthepot:





Gratz to ya though.... and I'm still working on that great title of... 7th uggg place

Talk about selfish. Johnny Damon left the team Thursday to be with his wife, who just had a baby.

What about my needs Johnny? I'm kind of in the middle of the Championships here buddy. Man, some people.

Speaking of Championship, this isn't one of those 2 week ones is it? I hate those (and not just because I'm kicking your butt either).

I just checked for you. I figured ten days, but it looks like it goes until Sunday Sept. 28th. They want to make my pain last longer.

I think you could almost bench your entire team that week and not worry...

I think my team has been running on fumes. The season started with key players going down, but I somehow grabbed first and held it to the midpoint. Then a nine game winless streak. Then I won the last couple of weeks against key opponents. Then I snuck by in the first round of the playoffs after securing a bye. Looks like my luck ran out... Your team would be crushing anyone this week. I'm very very happy with the silver. Really, I am.:)

I am going to check to see how many times we've battled in the playoffs, Cannuckian. I think, offhand, three times. I think I knocked you out in hockey and you knocked me out in football and looks like baseball.

But there are still 9 days to go, so I'm down but not out...yet!

Congrats to Darth (1st), Jammer (2nd), Footballers (3rd), and Roscoe (4th) for a fine season. My team has been hot the last 2 weeks, but unfortunately, wasn't playing anyone.

It's been fun!!

Thanks Bill.

You know the commissioner's job is actually to miss the playoffs entirely, so you kind of cheated by getting in there. (I on the other hand left nothing to chance by making sure I finished 9th or 10th in hockey!) So try to be more considerate next time. Other than that though, you did fine as commissioner.

The finals match between Jammer and I couldn't have been much closer. As always, luck played a huge factor when all was said and done.

It was lots of fun...

Oops. Yea, that's his baseball team name. You guys had a close battle. Actually, all of the final matchups were close. After barely squeaking into the playoffs, Roscoe, your team finished well. My son is already talking trash on how he beat me. Now, I have to suffer through the football season...

Congrats to Darth on his victory and pretty much dominating the league from start to finish.

My Phillies have done well for me Green guy, but I actually pass up better players to grab them. :) They are just my pets. Long story, but I liked them all the way back to 1971 or maybe 1972 when they had Steve (Lefty) Carlton pitching. Remember him? He won 27 games for them yet they only won a TOTAL of like 59 that year. Loveable losers. Finally they won a World series in 1980 or something. Nothing since but I stick with them.

Suggested improvement to next season's fantasy league: Get rid of the "complete game" stat. Rarely does anyone in the majors throw a complete game anymore.

Perhaps your 1-5-19 record in Complete Games has you feeling that way. :pound:
