Fantasy RBI 2018 Draft Thread

[Gantry]

GOOD PICK

[GDavis]

I'M DOWN WITH THAT PICK

[Darky]

The Empire selects:

OF Guerro

[TempoGL]

SS Greg Gagne for me

[GDavis]

Boone

[nomaaa]

Dave Henderson OF

[Gantry]

TERRIBLE pick

[TempoGL]

So I had the last two rounds combined, because I swore that's how it was done last time.  That is not how it was done last time.  I'm inclined to separate them out into 16 distinct rounds now that I realize that.  Does anyone have a strong opinion either way?

[Gantry]

I have a strong opinion that Tom Jones is superior to Neil Diamond. 

[Shooty]

I say leave it as is.  Makes it go quicker and won't really impact the final results.

No way. It's never been done like that. This isn't a music song draft or movie draft where after the draft, there's nothing more. Doing that would favor the high draft choices once again and that's simply not fair to do that to speed up the draft - there is no rush. At that stage, or any stage for that matter, it just doesn't favor fairness to double up.

Tom Jones does better work that Don McLean did with American Pie, but he still sucks.  MeTV FM plays Delilah like every single fkn day, and they are not a station known for repeats

[Gantry]

Your opinion is incorrect sir...

[Shooty]

My whole draft strategy was predicated around doubling up the last rounds.  TRAVESTY!

Just like the Madlock debacle, let it stand.

That's clearly not true, though.  Kind of like the concept that American Pie is a good song.  Or that Tom Jones isn't a third rate lounge singer.

[Darky]

Good call on fixing the last two rounds so those picks are isolated. Fighton initially made the same mistake last draft and then he used common sense to fix it. Why is Shooty so anxious to double up and yet, he says it doesn't make a difference, haha ... right.

[GDavis]

I thought it was an apt comparison when Gantry compared Neil Diamond and Tom Jones to late round RBI picks.  Neither give you much to get excited about.

[Gantry]

[BeefMaster]

I'll take Hendrick.

[Gantry]

GOOD PICK
