Post your selections on this thread and I'll update them.  Unfortuantly, the one flaw to the draft method is that some guys on the teams rarely post. If you know of anyone drop them a line and tell them to make a selection ASAP.  We need to start with ericdavisfan and BBAN.  if anyone can get this ball rolling that would be awesome.

Add 2 more.

Nick took Darrell Evans
Molly took Roger Clemens

Nightwulf is on the clock for the hitters.  Where are you Nightwulf?

Also, drop the handedness thing.  If you pick a guy and he's a lefty fine.  If you pick a guy and he's a righty, cool.  It doesn't matter what hand you play.  Whoever you pick is who you want your guy to be like, so if it is a righty and you are really a lefty, well your guy is now a righty.  Mainly, this is to keep the RBI players playing like they do in RBI.  If you take Armas and you are a lefty and convert him to a lefty, he may be a lot better or a lot worse.  At least, when you draft a guy, you should know what kind of player you are getting.  Just an FYI.

slowly but surely the teams are taking shape.  Those players who do not draft a player by the end of the draft will have their player choosen by their respective teammates.

Nightwulf lost his turn...now GDAVIS is up.
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: sucka free on 07/09/03, 06:52:36 PM
Vit,

  This rom is going to be slightly unfair if all of the top selections go to DEE NEE due to the DAH NAH not getting their picks in on time.  We lost our first 2 picks and if davis dosen't pick you'll have the top 4 picks.  The gpines will pick but when was the last time he ever posted.  So We'll lose that one as well making your team the receiptant of the top 6 picks.  Even if davis picks you still will have 5 out of the 6 first picks.  That just seems a little uneven.  Let me know what you think.
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: GDavis on 07/09/03, 07:35:13 PM
Let's face it, if the Dee-Nee's pick all the best hitters, instead of their favorite players, their reward is going to be that the ROM is lopsided.  Their team is going to win every game and it'll be no fun to play.  Congrats!

Checkmate!
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: Craig3410 on 07/10/03, 05:08:05 PM
Yeah, maybe the best thing to to is rearrange the picks so that it alternates between the two teams. Just a suggestion.
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: sucka free on 07/10/03, 05:23:52 PM
or have the team the player plays on choose for him...
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: Vitb6 on 07/10/03, 09:19:12 PM
your point is well takin.  Sucka why don't you vote for ERICDAVIS FAN, right now and after SUCKA picks how about CRAIG3410 pick for Nightwulf.

GDAVIS IT IS YOUR TURN!!!  Nightwulf lost his turn.  

***EVERYONE, look at the PITCHERS SELECTION THREAD to post your picks.  Don't post your pick ont his thread.  IF you would ahve looked at that thread I posted that Nightwulf's time has expired and GDAVIS is up.

***GDVAVIS already picked his player (Glen Davis).  SO NOW SUCKA pick for EDFAN then CRAIG3410 pick for Nightwulf!!***

After that we will be on track.  But remember you guys picked your squad...not our fault the guys you picked don't check the forum a lot.  Maybe you should reconsider some of the people and switch them out with people with less posts but that are currently posting.

So go to this thread:  http://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?board=3;action=display;threadid=736

SUCKA will update the pick in an easy to read format on this thread.  But all picks should be on the respected SELECTION THREADS.  After CRAIG 3410 picks for Nightwulf, Erik will pick.

Before I realized that you picekd.  Then I forgot to delete it from my post.

GDavis picked.  SUCKA is up for EDFAN and then CRAIG3410 for NIGHTWULF.

Shit, I fucked up again.  I meant to look at the HITTERS selection thread not the pitchers.  Although the URL posted above is to the correct thread.
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: vgp100 on 07/11/03, 11:12:13 AM

Maybe I'll pick for them. Edavis gets Straw. (Eric Davis and Strawberry were friends weren't they?)
Nightwulf gets Gibson.
Can anyone argue with that?
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: Craig3410 on 07/11/03, 02:33:09 PM
Works with me, I was torn between Strawberry and Kirk Gibson, and I was gonna pick the one you didn't pick.  ;D

Guys, I've been out of town, back home for 12 hours then going on a cruise in the morning.  there is internet on the boat so I shouldn't be out of the loop, but where are we on this dah-nah draft process... have we changed how it is done.  PLEASE let me know.

Nothing's really changed--some people are just slow drafters.

Title: Re:Draft Selections

Sucka-  GDAVIS has already picked.  He took Glen Davis like 3 days ago.  
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: Gantry on 07/11/03, 09:17:09 PM
Jason said I will be picking for Erik, aka Slim.  Trying to figure out a proper pick for the Slimster is tough.  He's tall, skinny and a good runner.  But he can't be too good, so he picks Kevin Bass...

I know that the Dee-Nee's are done drafting for pitching, but the Dah-Nah's have been on the clock since last Wednesday.

MarquisEXB, can you go ahead and draft a starting pitcher?  Thanks...

And someone please draft a reliever for NotURMasButArmas.  Thanks...
Title: Re:Draft Selections

Fast Eddy is up.  Ok, he's far from fast.  He's Jae's backup, behind the plate.  Depending on which pitcher starts, Fast Eddy might be a better start.  What?

Eddy chooses Gary Carter.

Pete is on the clock.
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: Lips on 07/15/03, 03:19:56 PM
We're moving quickly today.  I just emailed Pete back and forth, and he chooses Will "The Thrill" Clark.

craig3410 is on the clock.
savoia is on deck.
doveRBI follows.
sucka free follows after that.
And then Gantry follows after that.
Title: Re:Draft Selections

Didn't the Dove say he was going on Vacation?
Maybe Frosty really took him out. That Frosty does have a bad attitude.
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: sucka free on 07/17/03, 12:20:12 PM
should we just pick for him?  Which player does dove resemble?  Who fights alot in RBI?
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: vgp100 on 07/17/03, 12:29:53 PM
Who is more of a fighter than Kevin Mitchell? Maybe even Vince Coleman and his firecracker.
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: vgp100 on 07/17/03, 03:59:41 PM
Alright, how about a lefty Coleman as our leadoff guy. That would be sweet!
Make it so!
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: sucka free on 07/17/03, 05:52:21 PM
We will gve Dove, vince coleman for now.  He can change back when he gets back from vacation.

as for me....

I'll take RBI favorite  Ellis Burks.

I'll take Sweet Lou Whitaker.  I thought I was going to be able to pick an All-Star outfielder, so I might have to switch out with Pete to play my natural position.  Lou is king of the Grand Slam.

DEE-NEE!!!

Quotewhy does t get marc sullivan?....i feel as though thats a tough pick....i was representing t and promised him that i would get him either brookens or heath...whichever was available....can we make that happen?.

I say yes as long as we can change Jessie's pick to Marc Sullivan!!  I was very upset that Sullivan was picked by T (errr, SUCKA) as Jessie was going to take him.  I vote for repealing the Sullivan vote so Jessie can get him and then 'T' can take whoever.  Just my opinion though.

Gwynn is an all-star.  You have an all-star we have an all-star...and if your all-star is Gwynn I don't think you want us to have an all-star.  :-)  Actually I don't give a fuck.

Vince it is!  Hey guys I have returned.  I've definately been missing the action on the boards here.  Didn't get to my pick before I left and, if my head had been screwed on straight I would have set up a pick before I left.  However, kudos to you guys for getting it right.  Coleman was the perfect pick.  Can't wait to cause hellatrouble with my crazified grounders and mad speed.  Dah-nah! for life.  More to come.  Checkmate you ho's!
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: Lips on 07/20/03, 10:20:01 PM
bban7700, so who should we put t down as, Brookens or Heath?

We'll change Jessie to Marc Sullivan.

As far as Gwynn3K being Gwynn...that's fine with me, too.  Does anyone have an objection?

And Jae emailed me.  He wants The Laundromat, Tim Laudner.

Potsie is up.  Then The Murph.  Then clyon81.  And finally, vgp100.
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: sucka free on 07/21/03, 11:44:55 AM
If "T" wants another player besides Sullivan, then he really should make a post about it.  In fact, I have never seen a post by him.  As the head coach of the DAH NAH's I felt like as a team we could ill-afford to not pick sullivan.  T is pinch hitter for the DAH NAH...Sullivan is an UBER Pinch Hitter in RBI.  It just makes sense.  As for Jessie, he can go f^&k himself.  LOL, j/k but seriously, the dee-nee's will never have sullivan as long as I am posting :)

Dove, if you wnat someone else besides coleman let us know and will make the change for you
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: vgp100 on 07/21/03, 12:36:37 PM
Good move coach. NEVER give up Sullivan. He is, after all, an RBI legend.
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: sucka free on 07/21/03, 02:30:35 PM
Being the currently coach of the DAH NAH's, I expected that there would be some very very tough decisions to make.  It was a tough call to take sullivan, considering that BB100 is our starting pitcher and I want to make every start of his a comfortable one.  I chose Sullivan because of his uber clutch hitting and his overall approach with each at bat.  Its tough to come off the bench and pitch hit after you have been sitting all game, but Sullivan is a professional, he knows his role, and he is a great club house guy.  Frankly, I am suprised we were able to draft him so late.  In time, I feel that all DAH NAH's will embrace sullivan as a member of out ball club espically when "t" will be providing numerous late inning homers off those dreaded Dee-Nee pitchers.

---coach free
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: doveRBI on 07/21/03, 02:44:12 PM
coach free -
sully is the right move.  never give him up.  as for me being vince, i think it is the right thing to do.  especially since i always wanted to be black.

I select RBI legend Rick Burleson.
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: sucka free on 07/21/03, 04:01:07 PM
We haven't heard form the murph in quite some time, so if he chimes in he can chage this pick.  But as the GM, and looking at our lineup, we need another legend to come off the bench...

sheridan is gone
spilman is gone
sullivan is gone
Burleson  is gone
jones is gone

damn, the barrel is dry but we are going to go with the mustache, Rob Wilfong.   He is a charater pick!
Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: sucka free on 07/21/03, 04:02:21 PM
vgp100,

Title: Re:Draft Selections
Post by: vgp100 on 07/21/03, 04:15:52 PM
I think the Fonger is a great pick. I'm a big fan of Rob Wilfong. Good call.
As for my pick, I've got a few aces up my sleeve. It'll be a good one.

Crap, I forgot that cyclone was on our team.  Since he is a bench player, he'll be randy bush.  Ah yes, mustache and the bush coming off the bench.  The DAH NAH's are freaking sweet.  I also chose two pitchers, ryan and worrell to fill out our ranks.

Title: Re:Draft Selections

Its tough to drop brookens for sully, espically since I know that the Dee-Nee sqaud will pick him up.  But at the same time I definitly want everyone to use the player that they want.    I am caught in a conundrum (sp)

I'll reverse my decision through one of two ways:

a:  T makes an actual posting.  He he posts that he wants brookens then I have no choice but to make the decision.

b: We work out a trade with the dee-nee's

2) hes had a bushy stache since age 11

There it is fellas.  BBan is speaking for T and has required Brookens.  Although SUCKA may be the manager of the DAH-NAH's, he ha to follow-up with personal requests.  Therefore, Marc Sullivan is OURS!!!!

BTW, Potsie that avatar is absolutely disgusting.

And I can't believe that Wally Joyner went un-drafted.  Gantry, I thought that he was all yours.

vit,
 
  I follow up personal request from the actual people.  If t wants brookens, then he has to take 5 minutes out of his life and go make a simple post.  There are enough compouters in this country for to use.  Hell, just go to  the library.  My point is this, if he wants brookens so badly, if brookens is his life, then he should put worth minimal effort to stake his claim.  Not posting about it, invalidates, this supposed brookens worship.  There just isn't anyway to prove a personal request until I see a posting by "t".


Besides, I'm not losing sully without a fight...

BBAN,

  Thanks for the vote of confidence.  Being a manager can be tough at times.   Making the right call may not be the popular one.  But if it comes to me to make certain personal decisions, I will always select people that give us a better chance to beat the DEE NEE's.  Besides, sully is a great clubhouse and he is SO clutch.

I know that I have mentioned this before, but... Whoever makes the ROM, please make two of each team.  That way, we could play Dee-Nee vs Dee-Nee and Dah-Nah vs Dah-Nah.

I mean seriously, who is gonna wanna play Dah-Nah vs. Dah-Nah?

I can't wait to open up a can of whoop ass on the Dah-Nah's, as long as we play it on normal speed.  I am by far, the all-time worst at Speed RBI!!!!
