Beat the Streak is on my hatey list. I lose a 7-game streak yesterday for not being able to pick a player by Noon. -- nm

when you can pick a week in advance, I do not see this as a problem. - groiny Apr 29, 07:43 18
- I'd never pick w/o knowing the O/U totals and pitching matchups. - Strongbad Apr 29, 07:45 14
  - And yes, it's my fault for not realizing this and picking a player a day before. - Strongbad Apr 29, 07:47
  - O/U? And couldn't you at least pick, and then switch if you remember that day? -- nm - TFox Apr 29, 07:46 12
    - and I am very disappointed that will all the baseball fans on ST - groiny Apr 29, 07:55 7
      - I'm going with Marlon Byrd today. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 29, 07:56 2
        
        I'm going with Carl Crawford. -- nm - Krusty Apr 29, 07:58 1
        
        Berkman. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 29, 07:59
      - I can't get down on these every single day fantasy games. Same reason golf and nascar and whatnot annoy me. -- nm - TFox Apr 29, 07:56 3
        
        it is not even really fantasy. pick one dude out of everyone in baseball - groiny Apr 29, 07:56 2
        
        game, then. (golf and nascar aren't really fantasy either.) -- nm - TFox Apr 29, 08:01 1
        
        by that I mean, you do not have to draft a team, trade, etc.... - groiny Apr 29, 08:02
    - Over/Under - Strongbad Apr 29, 07:47 3
      - You can't do that without a published O/U number? -- nm - TFox Apr 29, 07:50 2
        
        has had the lonest streak so far. - groiny Apr 29, 07:52
        
        Makes it easier. I don't follow baseball very much. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 29, 07:51
- Sure but no all the pitching matchups are set up a week in advance. - Krusty Apr 29, 07:44 2
  - I do mine like 4 days in advance, but will look further out as some matchups are listed. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 29, 07:51
  - *no = not* -- nm - Krusty Apr 29, 07:44
That's the one thing I dislike about Beat the Streak. -- nm - Krusty Apr 29, 07:40
if yahoo hadn't changed the deadlines for the golf lineups, they would have lost me this year. -- nm - zork Apr 29, 07:40 14
- They changed them? It's one of the reasons I didn't play this year. I missed 3-4 weeks last year. -- nm - Krusty Apr 29, 07:41 13
  - They've been a lot better this season about that. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 29, 07:42 12
    - Too late now but maybe I'll jump in again next year. - Krusty Apr 29, 07:43 11
      - This year - Strongbad Apr 29, 07:52 10
        
        That sounds much better. I would sign in on Thursday morning and realise I had no one in the tourney and couldn't - Krusty Apr 29, 07:55 8
        
        you can still join. they've split the year into 3 seasons and you can win them separately -- nm - zork Apr 29, 07:57 1
        
        Maybe I'll jump in when the next season starts. -- nm - Krusty Apr 29, 08:03
        
        I goofed the first 2 weeks, week1, did not realize it started already - groiny Apr 29, 07:56 1
        
        Yup. Now you have to hope other people start missing weeks. -- nm - Krusty Apr 29, 08:03
        
        I'm doing pretty horrible so far. CQ is out in front. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 29, 07:55 3
        
        He seems to do well every year. I must actually watch golf. :-) -- nm - Krusty Apr 29, 08:00 2
        
        *He not I* My typing is terrible today. -- nm - Krusty Apr 29, 08:01 1
        
        Disney is usually in the top couple also -- nm - zork Apr 29, 08:06
        
        yeah, although their default message can confuse things -- nm - zork Apr 29, 07:53
