If anyone here is still watching In Plain Sight, can you tell me if it's jumped the shark, or is it still good? -- nm - Beryllium Mar 2, 10:28 5

  - It's coming back later this month -- nm - rollo Mar 2, 10:54 1
    - thanks. I still like it. I think they've developed the characters well. -- nm - loosilu Mar 2, 11:01
- It fell off my radar a few seasons ago. (spoilers) - Stephen Mar 2, 10:45
- Still good but like a lot of shows in its 4/5/6th season it has lost some of its edge. It holds up better than Burn Notice if that's a meaningful comp -- nm - rollo Mar 2, 10:41

        I think so after the spin off Dwight. -- nm - Remlik Mar 2, 10:40 2
        
        That is the worst idea in the history of bad ideas. -- nm - Reagen Mar 2, 10:51 1
        
        Quite likely, yes. Probably a worse idea than getting involved in a land war in Asia. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 2, 11:09
- Is it on opposite of POI in some markets? - Stephen Mar 2, 10:21 1

    - Now it's just f-ing with me - Stephen Mar 2, 10:09 2
      - Young Jeezy, that's one hell of an autocorrect! -- nm - con_carne Mar 2, 10:17
      - i think i like 'Jeez us'. -- nm - Diva Mar 2, 10:16
Huh, Sofa King (our prices are Sofa King low!) is a real business. -- (link) - mara Mar 2, 09:57 3

fwiw, I'm definitely a lot more fun with a couple drinks. - znufrii Mar 2, 09:54 6
- [deleted] 3
  - of course, this also assumes I don't get so drunk I revert back to sitting in a corner by myself. :) -- nm - znufrii Mar 2, 10:16 2
    - [deleted] 1
      - shaken, not stirred. -- nm - znufrii Mar 2, 10:20
- And apparently, Mop likes to take his fire hose out when people have fun -- nm - con_carne Mar 2, 10:02
- I'm just the opposite. I do have fun either way but when drunk I'm having my own fun, when sober I enjoy everyone around me. -- nm - CrankYanker Mar 2, 09:55
Holy shit, just checking in on a league that just autodrafted FBB...... - groiny Mar 2, 09:50 29
- I don't like the pitching as much....well, upside it's great, but not really proven...but that's a very strong offense. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 2, 10:00 2
  - at worst, I have 4 solid closers. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 2, 10:03 1
    - Yeah, but given that position, 2 of them will probably be useless by June :) - Will Hunting Mar 2, 10:07
- For 8 teams, the pitching is weak, but the bats are good enough to not care. -- nm - TFox Mar 2, 09:55 25
  - I had pre-ranked for the dingers league, it must have carried those rankings over. - groiny Mar 2, 09:56 24
    - Well maybe, or alternatively the other drafters focused on pitching first. - TFox Mar 2, 10:04 23
      - is that roto or head-to-head? - TFox Mar 2, 10:06 2
        
        head to head. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 2, 10:07 1
        
        load your bench up with upside SPs then. - TFox Mar 2, 10:08
      - even so, shocked to get Braun and Bautista. I think they both are top 10 players. -- nm - groiny Mar 2, 10:06 19
        
        well, if your pick was late (and it looks like it was) you picked twice in the top 10. -- nm - TFox Mar 2, 10:07 18
        
        Hanley too. He got a 5 tool guy; and then 2 MVP level guys...that's absurdly quality. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 2, 10:08 17
        
        yeah, that's arguably 3 from the top 15, which is a really good start. - TFox Mar 2, 10:11 16
        
        here... - groiny Mar 2, 10:13 12
