Official RBI Fantasy Draft VI - Comment Thread

I'm on my phone, and trying to calm a crying baby. I won't be ready to look at my sheet until she's asleep. I barely have time to write this post. I thought a heads up would be a courtesy.

This adds to the voluminous body of support for my theory that children are the worst.

[ryno]

it's really not that difficult.


Remind me again why we can't set aside 1-2 hours one evening and do this thing?

Can't you just read your draft sheet to your baby to get her to sleep? There you go...making efficient use of time. Time does not wait for anything

Wow, you guys are some impatient fools! I remember Tecmo drafts going a week or two at a time...nonetheless, I understand this is like Christmas for you guys.  My family does take priority, whether it's calming a crying kid, or just chilling with my wife, so if the lapse in time is for too much, I won't be offended if you want to replace me...although I'd like that not to happen.  Anyways, I'm looking at my sheet now, I'll make my picks shortly...

lol look at those picks

Rookie mistakes

[Attezz]

Seriously.

I'm wondering if in the stress of his child and what-not he accidentally sorted the spreadsheet the wrong way or something.

Yikes.

[Turd]

What's wrong with Schmidt? Admittedly, after I posted I saw that I missed another guy on there I should have taken, not sure how I overlooked him...

[Darky]

Good picks tecmoturd...

[TβG]

do we want to give him a chance to take his pick back, darky?

NO. I already made a rule about that earlier. Again---let it be known that once you make your pick, there is no turning back. NO EXCEPTIONS.

It's fine, no big deal...it was MY fault...I can take the scrutiny.  I'm just here to have a good time, if one pick ruins my fake RBI fantasy team, I still get to play fake fantasy RBI at the end of the day.  It's all good...

You made solid picks. Both players hit over .550 last year.

[Turd]

P.S. I'm out for the night, so I wouldn't expect another pick from me until at least 8-9 AM CST tomorrow...

I know there were other guys I could have taken based off of pure attributes, but I also felt like fantasy sports includes a buncha luck, so I thought I'd take a chance on a little speedier guy and let what he lacks in power be made up by some potential fantasy luck...

[TβG]

it's not that bad of a pick actually.  and being in slot #1 is a lot of pressure, with a bunch of decisions.

A little. The pitchers getting hits and errors is where the realm of luck is introduced. Nothing overwhelming from what I've seen from all the games I scored last year.

[Turd]

Thanks for the support.  A single tear rolls down my cheek.

[AlecTrevylan006]

I was just screwing around with you. Solid picks.

[Turd]

Heh, thanks...this shit is fun.  My wife gave me some weird looks today when I explained it to her.  She doesn't understand that it mixes three of my favorite things, fantasy sports, baseball, and RBI.

She said she supports my need and desire to be involved in this shit though, so I got that goin' for me, which is nice.
