    I guess my bunch of idiots went out celebrating week 1's win. Today's line:

    1/13 for my hitters with 0s in every stat category

    And had Duke as my pitcher today

    Illusion is up 7-0 already on me

    Most of my team has the day off and my opponent has his who team playing. The few guys that did play sucked. Going to start another week deep in the whole.

    How do you put a player on the DL? Braves placed Chipper on the 15 day DL today.

    You can't do it until Yahoo updates his status.

    Thanks. I thought I was allowed to add another player to my roster if I put somebody on the DL?? It wouldn't let me.

    Crap...games started before I could tweak my line up. Left a catcher who is off today in the lineup and catcher i left on the bench would have helped me out.

    Im actually leading this week. After that asswhoopin last week, I was having some doubts about my team.

    Damn Reggie Sanders only does good when I bench him.

    I actually ended the night in front for the first time. Looks like several of us door mats turned things around this week.

    What does the old guy have to do to get a spot in your lineup? He just hit a 2 run bomb off Chacon (I think it's inevitable every one of my fantasy pitchers gets shelled this week )

    I just noticed that either Stat Tracker is not real time (few seconds delay of course) or it's not accurate. Jeter has had 3AB...1run....1RBI though 7 innings. Stat Tracker is now in the 9th the current Jeter line has not been brought up to date. S.T. still shows 2ABs...as if he had been taken out of the game.

    Okay...now I'm pissed. Jeter scored 3 runs and had 1 RBI according to MLB.com which is correct.

    Stat Tracker has 2 runs and no RBI...it went through the whole rest of the game without updating his stats.

    My Yahoo team roster shows Jeter with 1 run, 3 RBI, 1HR which ain't right either.

    Hope there is a logical explanation.....I know SBR paid $ for this thing.

    StatTracker is wrong occasionally, but when the standings are updated overnight, they'll be right. Probably before then.

    Thanks W.S....would still be a little more fun if it was accurate in game...kind of takes away some of the fun when following the action with that thing.

    Apparently Frank's not going to take out Livan until he's destroyed all that Contreras and Mulder have built.

    I bench Lopez and Kearns today and both hit 3 run bombs. Put Mauer in the lineup and he sits out. I'm aiming for a 3-7 week at best this week.

    I don't know what's more frustrating:

    Liriano pitching in middle relief (I believe 12k's in 6 and 2/3 IP this year)

    or

    Ryan Howard batting 6th with David Bell and Mike Lieberthal backing him up

    I have two Houston players..... I get a sniff of the lead and they get rained out two nights in a row.

    Man. These first 2 weeks I have been making all bad moves.

    Today I see Edmonds wasnt playing so I go fill his spot with Reggie Sanders. Thought about putting the hot Rios there, but figured Sanders would do better against Tampa.

    Rios hits a 2 run shot at his first at bat.

    Tell me about it. Vazquez (in) blows up and Harang (out) pitches like Cy Young in Saint Louis.

    He's leading by larger margins in his categories than yours, so 4 is probably your best possible result.

    Don't be mad, I've only got a shot at 3 maximum this week I think. Illusion's team is going absolutely nuts this week on offense. 20 hrs already, next best in the league is 10, lol.

    Oh I know, I can't do anything about the other four categories at this point. Still frustrating that I have all the offensive numbers but still have a lower batting average and have a considerably more strike outs but ZERO wins and an ERA that just got blown up in the first game today.

    Wish we had a rule that if you have starting pitchers scheduled to start that you gotta play em. Something doesn't seem right with getting a couple days of good pitching early in the week and then not starting ANY pitchers just to preserve your ERA. (my opponent this week is not who I am referring to).

    Why don't you bring the discussion out in the open Ricky. Sending me PMs calling me a penetrating idiot isn't much of a contribution to the forum.
