Shoot me a FB message some time today and we'll time it out so you can bump him and I can pay and claim the team right away. Looks like they've made it easier. I just have to add your username, which I did, presuming that's actually you.

metsmarathon wrote: Was Wolfe one of the 2 teams or were there in fact three teams unavailable? I popped in briefly at 9 and didn't see the Devil Toads, so yeah, probably 3 teams. I copy and pasted the emails from the site without really reading them so C-Wolf hasn't been on the thread. When he's ready I'll kick the non-responsive squatter. I'm trying, desperately, to find a date that works. This Doodle blocks out the next week and a half. So far there are exactly 0 days that work for everyone so I don't even know. http://doodle.com/ph8fr789tz8vrh86

seawolf17 wrote: Shit. Did I get bumped from our league? I thought I paid. uh, yeah. didn't you? I didn't even realize you weren't there. I saw Stonybrook and didn't even pay attention that the email wasn't you. If you are indeed paid up, I'll bump that guy for you. He hasn't responded to any of my emails anyway. I'm sorry..it sucks that we didn't draft tonight. But 2 people canceled on me and an auction draft with 2 no-shows and a season with 2 handicapped teams is not ideal. This seemed like the best idea to me. Please fill out the doodle I sent and hopefully we can make this work.

Any of you that aren't in the Ottoneu league with us feel like filling in for someone in the draft tonight?

I don't get too worked up about rounds. If you have a 3B hole and think he's worth it, try to grab him. I guess the goal would be to make sure you could keep him if he's really gold, so no earlier than the 6th round to guarantee that extra year if he's a top guy. 11th to make it two years. (11+1/2 is 6th round keeper, 6+1/2 is 4th round keeper It really depends on how valuable you think he'll be. Average round on Yahoo is 12.7. That's 17th of 3B (including behind Daniel Murphy) I'd probably take him 8-11 depending how I was happy filling out other positions to that point if you want him.

by 9pm all green-induced hangovers should be over too!

Editing is one of those things I always thought was like Umpiring - if you noticed it, it was bad. But when I walked out of the movie, I told my wife that I thought the editing was good, and its probably the first time I ever said that about any movie. And I can't explain why.I think it was the way they were able to keep the parallel stories separate; you always knew which time period was being portrayed, even when there was no subtitle to point it out. I did think it was an excellent film; I've seen a lot of good ones this year. I'd disagree then. I actually had trouble with the time periods at first, particularly the cops part. The first scenes were before I really knew what was going on so once I got into the story I sorta forgot about the cops and the breakin. felt like a jarring break of pace. And I'm not sure the young Turing stuff really added much to the picture. The whole pace of the movie felt a little plodding to me, though I was invested and interested since Turing is basically my wheelhouse. Would've liked more talk of algorithms and the geeky stuff behind building the machine.

please tell me said Spider-Man movie won't be another reboot. Tired of seeing the origin story.

finally saw it last night. whatever. The Tony Stark Anxiety Attack thing was a bit much. Am I allowed to use spoilers now? It's like 18 months ago. The last battle would've been better, imo, if you didn't know Pepper had been injected with the stuff. Have Aldrich keep pining after her and saying things like "I'll make her mine" and then let fall into the flames with at least some doubt as to whether she'd survived. THEN have Tony summon the drone-Iron Men in a fit of vengeance-fueled rage.

believe keeper deadline is Friday or Saturday, better drop those bums you hate.

ooh, me me me. Sounds like fun.

Welcome Troy. Sorry, you can't wear #2 here because it's been permanently soiled. Anyone want to take a flyer on Brian McCann? feels like a prime candidate for a bounce-back in HR at least. Lester? How about Segura? SS, also a young bounceback type guy.

I might be interested in TT. Hmm.

I don't think I've seen 10 movies this year. all time low for me probably. I saw Divergent (botched) and MockingJay part 1 (was good) Just scrolled through the top 200 most popular 2014 movies on IMDB and yeah, only those two. Haven't even seen any others by other means. Which means I haven't seen a film from this year that I didn't already know the story. Embarrassing showing.

Technically you don't need them, can just stack SP and get your innings, but RP generally have higher K rates(and lower ERA) so really you need them to win those categories.

I feel like you can generally pick up the 'one-year wonder' type relievers for pennies in May if you're paying attention.

Want to see at least in part because I wandered past the set while they were filming a couple of times in NYC last summer. Although not actually _through_ the set like I did for TMNT or August Rush.

I prefer to do my murdering with a scythe myself, so I'm definitely not an axe murderer.

I heard it's gonna be a sex movie.
