I opened up to sixteen teams this year, looking for a few more players in anyone is interested. I'd go to four (actually, 4 is Yahoo's limit before I have to go to my Ceetarsnose Yahoo account). Who doesn't need more fantasy baseball?

Fman99 wrote: I'm doing the same 3 I did last year... 1. The CPF NL only 2. A head to head league, online, that ABNS brought me in on with some of his West coast homies 3. A 14 team money league ($65 entry) with keepers that I've run since 2002. First 14 rounds done via email, the last 14 done live online and in person at the Fman household... This one is my obsession... I've been meaning to step it up and get into a keeper/money/different type league this year, but I never remember to find one. I've got two other Yahoo leagues this year, one a recurring head-to-head one from..i think livejournal's baseball forum but I could be wrong on where it originated, and another via The Real Dirty Mets Blog peoples. I'm going to win all three.

Robert (Queens): What are your thoughts on Wilmer Flores? Paul DePodesta: Two days ago during a minor league game played on Field 7 (a field that is built precisely to the dimensions of CitiField - walls and all), Flores went oppo to deep right center field. Oppo. Right-center. In CitiField. He's 19. Like him! Seriously, he can really hit.

Update on Kirk. This is what he did last year. Didn't fare so well once promoted to Buffalo. Seeems to have made a bunch of errors. Seems likely that he'll start there this year, and he ate at Duffy's Thursday night after he got back from Fort Myers and the Red Sox.

ARE YOU READY?! I hope so, or you might get stuck with guys like Pat Misch or Oliver Perez.

99% sure this is Cohoon. (When you're surrounded by hundreds of players, many you've never heard of and all sorts of things going on ,sometimes you forget who you took a picture of. at least, I do. ) But this is him, He was warming up before his minor league game.

Edgy DC wrote: Jordany Valdespin, coming off his successful AFL campaign, was Rule V eligiible. So said Toby Hyde, and the Mets musta been reading, because BAM! they added him to the 40-man roster. This post could use an update. Valdespin played around with the big club early on this spring and looked good doing it. He's obviously not ready, but the early success will likely prompt some people, beat writers, etc, to mention him a lot. There are things he needs to work on in the minors, patience at the plate, properly tossing his manager baseballs to hit..

Kai was last seen sporting his green st. Patricks Day hat in Vine and Barley (great place btw) last night around 8:30. Him, Justin Turner, and Scott Hairston were in there for a half hour or so and then left. My wife asked him where he got the hat (she wants one) and he, somewhat sheepishly, said "actually, I play there." or something to that effect.

I kinda liked it, but I'm generally Emma Stone biased.

Ashie62 wrote: Well, it is that time of the year again. I did not participate last year so I may be out of school starting this thread. If not, any interest in a 10-12 person league through Yahoo or CBS?? I am willing to set it up. I guess we would need to know the preference as to AL, NL or both, and scoring style, head to head or 5X5 or standard roto. The 5X5 includes runs scored by batters and K's by pitchers. A potential draft date and time "could" be set for evening 3/28 or Sunday 3/29 I'm all ears..Ashie.. I could always join another game if you wanted to do something different than the NL only one we're doing. Maybe even on a different site with different style of play?

TransMonk wrote: I'm just of the opinion that now that we have so many awards shows that we have a season named after it, the Academy Awards should be held to a higher standard. They are the pinnacle of all of the award shows. They don't need to be yound and hip - there are a dozen other awards that can have that distinction. The Oscars should be glamorous and classy. Overall, I don't care one way or the other. I had no dogs in this race and was just looking for some Sunday night entertainment. But, Bob Hope is rolling in his fucking grave. If they're not young and hip, don't they become old and stuffy? ala the Rolling Stones at the Super Bowl type thing? I'm not sure there is an easy answer. I'm not sure what the 'high standard' is without being prim proper and boring. But again, I'm probably the target demographic that it's trying to more appeal to. There are definitely too many awards shows though.

TransMonk wrote: IMO, Franco and Hathaway were making jokes between themselves. The overall writing was stiff. Hathaway flubbed several lines and ad-libbed her goofs. Franco seemed like he really didn't care if he was there or not. The exchanges between Timberlake and Kunis made several references to one of the documentary nominees that no one got. Kirk Douglas went on WAY to long. Hathaway gushed over to many of the presenters and blew too many kisses. The whole production seemed unprofessional. I enjoyed the opening scenes and I liked the way the screen was set up. There were a couple of audience-at-home jokes that got a laugh. Whoever it was that read the short-films nominees made a reference to at-home ballots and Hathaway joked about a/the drinking game. The auto-tune thing may have been a little too MTVish, but everyone at the party i was at laughed. I thought the Charlie Scheen joke was topical. I think what passed as 'professional' is changing. Maybe it was a little bland/nondescript but I didn't get 'horrible'. (although I did find it annoying that every other person in my Twitter feed felt it necessary to mock and/or joke about how they weren't watching it. )

TransMonk wrote: It was just about the worst Oscar show ever. Yup. I'm always amazed that it takes 3+ hours to do what could easily be done in one. Hathaway + Franco = horrible. It was a night of hosts and presenters constantly upstaging one another. I like/liked Hathaway. I guess they weren't great or anything,but I wouldn't say horrible. (the 3+ hour thing is another story, plus why'd it start at 8:30..usually 8 right?) Isn't the hosts and presenters upstaging each other just how things are done these days? Not saying it's "as good" as previous shows (And certainly could be generational, I'm not exactly old enough to have a read standard of judgement), but I didn't think it was bad. Kanye West certainly wasn't unusual, he was just just extreme. Maybe I just don't have high expectations, I haven't, won't, and don't really want to see most of the movies nominated. (What I took away from the show/party i was at was that i should see the Fighter and the Social Network wasn't as boring as I expect it to be) So the 'best' awards don't really reflect what I'm looking for in a movie anyway. What was it that was so bad about the hosts/show? just the oneupmanship? o

Vic Sage wrote: congrats on your clean sweep, but that night was hardly "perfect". It was just about the worst Oscar show ever. Seemed fine to me. But I dunno how to judge these things. Maybe I just don't expect much.

wow, it was that long ago? I think it was pretty classic. at the forefront of scary new cloning stuff and new technology and whatnot. (like most of Crithton's stuff actually..)

Fman99 wrote: OK, well, if we're going to push things out till 9:30 then I can do any weeknight. Doesn't have to be a Wednesday so we can accommodate for smg58 that way. I have changed the draft to Tuesday 3/22 at 9:30 PM. Again, if that borks someone please let me know ASAP. At some point I will lose flexibility on draft scheduling. (Also 3/24 is out as it is Fboy's birthday, and the week of 3/26-4/1 I am on vacation.) 3/25 is my birthday. But wouldn't want to do it that last week anyway, need to have a couple of days to shuffle around those bench guys that end up not making the team.

I'd prefer the live draft not 3/15-3/20, but that's rather varied and probably one of the best times for it.

Fman99 wrote: I'm happy to start a league up like last year. Here to check interest levels and get any dates in advance that you don't want a live draft. I managed to miss the draft last year and got totally totally screwed due to the NL only format, but i'm good with whatever we decide too.
