  - I donlt even remember. I had avoided at even looking until now. - The Ruiner Aug 26, 09:31 1
    - That team reminds me of Kelly's Vamps team...none of the skill players are without worry and most of them are dependable only. - Will Hunting Aug 26, 09:33
Mrs.Vermin watched Brad Pitt shooting WWZ in Glascow today. -- nm - Six Degrees of Vermin Aug 26, 09:26

        it would rule. -- nm - Beaker Aug 26, 09:34 14
        
        either that or relegation. - Beaker Aug 26, 09:37 13

        Champions get leeway -- nm - Beaker Aug 26, 09:41 2
        
        Stacy, a former champion, was removed from the league yesterday. So... -- nm - David Aug 26, 09:42 1
        
        he was barely around last year though (and dropped MJD the year before) -- nm - Beaker Aug 26, 09:43
        
        Of course, you'd have to switch Vamps and Cavemen because we're clearly the #2 league now. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 26, 09:38 8
        
        because you draft faster? that's silly. -- nm - Beaker Aug 26, 09:39 7

        Out of the three, Vampirates is the easiest to run because you folks are so well organized. -- nm - David Aug 26, 09:41 5
        
        To be fair, when 3 people have 75% of the first 49 picks...it's easy to run. - Will Hunting Aug 26, 09:42 3
        
        This is true but they're also great at picking up their players, which makes my life a lot easier. - David Aug 26, 09:43 2
        
        *sigh* - groiny Aug 26, 09:44 1

- DVRed. -- nm - The Ruiner Aug 26, 09:14

  - My thoughts were similar. -- nm - Walt_Disney Aug 26, 09:22 4
    - Plus... (spoils) - Name Withheld By Request Aug 26, 09:24 3
      - I would have gone with - Beaker Aug 26, 09:25 2
        
        Yeah, that's one gaping angle left out of the show the other night... - Name Withheld By Request Aug 26, 09:30 1

    - [deleted] 3
      - My big $$ draft is tomorrow. I'm considering taking him around Rd 4-5 if he's on the board. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 26, 09:19 1
        
        We also have very deep rosters. (17 total, 8 starters) which allows me to snag Collins later. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 26, 09:20
      - He has become the ultimate FFL back-up. -- nm - The Ruiner Aug 26, 09:18
    - There is no QB I would take in that spot. -- nm - The Ruiner Aug 26, 09:15 4
      - Depends on the scoring system. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 26, 09:15 3
        
        Well, yeah, if it is a weird one. - The Ruiner Aug 26, 09:17 2
        
        There's some that require 2 starting QB's. Those are interesting. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 26, 09:18 1
        
        I have been in those. Usually small leagues might do that.. - The Ruiner Aug 26, 09:19

- Where in the 2nd round? -- nm - Strongbad Aug 26, 09:05

    - and darn that Samara, I was hoping Graham would be there for my next pick. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 26, 09:22 9
      - I was going to take him before you -- nm - Bacon @Home Aug 26, 09:38
      - trade you for philly D. -- nm - samara Aug 26, 09:24 7
        
        No thanks. DEF's will be scarce by my next pick. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 26, 09:28 6

  - Yahoo is about 11 picks behind...assuming that no one has entered any of those picks. - Jim Aug 26, 09:06 5
    - I know a couple couldn't access Yahoo at work. David was adding them yesterday for those that couldn't do it themselves. - Krusty Aug 26, 09:10 3
      - Ahhhh...sounds like some folks need new fucking jobs. nm - Jim Aug 26, 09:11 2

  - thx - its fine so far -- nm - Capstern Aug 26, 09:09
The guy who thought, "Hey, let's draw Michael Vick with a white face!" should immediately be fired. - Strongbad Aug 26, 08:58 15
- I've seen the pic. Dumb question: What are peoples' objections to it, or the article? -- nm - con_carne Aug 26, 09:02 8
  - It implies that the determining factor in his career is the color of his skin. - znufrii Aug 26, 09:16 4
    - Actually, it argues that a large part of who he is is based on the color of his skind. - Stephen Aug 26, 09:37 3
      - So the premise of the article is "If something about him was different, he would be different"? Seems circular ... -- nm - Beryllium Aug 26, 09:39 1
        
        I think a more accurate description of the premise would be "it's a stupid question to ask, so let's stop asking it." -- nm - Stephen Aug 26, 09:40
      - skin -- nm - Stephen Aug 26, 09:38
  - The author has already gone on record as "Judge me by my article since they used a headline and illustrations I don't condone." - Will Hunting Aug 26, 09:09 1
    - Ah, interesting -- nm - con_carne Aug 26, 09:11
  - Personally, I think the concept is dumb. - Strongbad Aug 26, 09:04
- I can't wait until Jemele Hill defends it. -- nm - TFox Aug 26, 08:59 5
  - Imagine a show with Jemele Hill, Jason Whitlock, and Skip Bayless discussing sports. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 26, 09:10 3
    - This is my Hell. -- nm - David Aug 26, 09:37 1
      - Today's guest panelists, Will, David and Crash, arguing the merits of Edgar Martinez in the HOF. - Will Hunting Aug 26, 09:44
