Why am I having to face Jim Bunning when I DRAFTED JIM BUNNING?!?!?!?It's bad enough that these dummy teams have pitchers that are 19-10 3.59 with 185 K season, but why do they have guys we drafted playing for them?!?!?
WHO THE HELL IS IN CHARGE HERE?!?!?
How's he been behind the plate? I really wanted to draft him (great guy/story on top of being a great ballplayer) but missed out on the catcher run.I think that game may single-handedly get Campanella on the All-Star team. Would have been nice to have some of this hitting the last 6 game sthough

Tell you the truth I don't really know. Guys seem to be able to run against me, but they seem to be able to run in general, though. He's been pretty cold for awhile until this game.Glad other people are getting ran on too. My catchers don't have great D ratings, and teams seem to do pretty well running against us. We'll throw a guy out now and then but not often. Bresnahan has better ratings than Tettleton defensively but I haven't noticed much difference if any.Wait these guys are suppose to play defense also.How's he been behind the plate?

Updated All-Star nominations:
Those stats are before today's PM1 games. Musial now has 17 HR and 67 RBI. Trammel and Murray have both edged their BAs over .300.I have five guys on pace for 100+ RBI. Wish my pitching was even 10% better.BTW, about pitchers I nominated above: Leier is my best starter. His stats are decent, but he has a lot of no-decisions. Babe Adams has a lot of innings, but he's actually my long reliever. I'd put him up against any middle reliever in this sim..

He proboably leads my team in plate appearances. Usually sit him against the dummy teams and maybe occasionaly in a regular series just like everybody else. He's been frustrating. 74 K's and counting. He struck out quite a bit in the season it's using. Would never actually bench him but don't have high hopes for a turnaround. He hits a big home-run every once in a while and has great range in the outfield atleast. Have thought about moving him around in the order and might still do that.Probably worth leaving him in, I thought of benching Aaron but he's come on lately.That settles it. No more days off for Mickey....Yeah, it looks like if you leave guys in there long enough they seem to come aroundbtw, McCovey is coming around
Another homer.
I'll update the stats for you guys so everybody is current when it comes out too. Gonna make the nominations due before Sunday morning. I'll format a ballot during the day Sunday and get it out proboably Sunday night maybe Monday morning. Voting will be due before Wednesday morning the results will be posted sometime Wednesday night (All-Star break is after wednesday's pm game).

That game is under protest due to the use of an illegal Larry_boy player.Dear Dragons, Arks, and Lebron,
Thanks for the help!
P.S.
I "own" Koya.
"ouch"
has anyone ever done a football sim at WIS?has there ever been an all-time football draft in the FFA?anyone know? I'm too lazy to do a search right now.

Left work early today?
that might be something that needs to be done at some point24 team all-time draft using all positions.looking at WIS though, it appears you have to pick an entire team defense and entire offensive line instead of individual players. That takes a lot of the fun out of it I guess.

Hey Spock, I hear you are playing one of the crappy teams today. Who you got pitching?
Jim Bunning.
He's pretty good. Who's the crappy Lebron team got pitching?
Jim Bunning.
OUCH!

No you're not.
sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.I thought you used your other username while at work.
yeah, I guess I could deal with that. But, not picking IDPs would really be kind of silly.

I agree, Drafting IDP's would have some excitement to it unlike the O-line. It would be a long draft but we manged 16 dudes 24 rounds in this thread, not to shabby. As long as you have comitted/cooperative(i.e. PMing picks to eachother etc.) owners and a well defined set of rules it should run pretty smooth.

You could do team Oline and team Dline and that would cut quite a few players out.If you did that you'd have 7 offense and 8 defense with whatever size bench you'd want. Oh yeah and you'd want a kicker and punter. (Chip Lohmiller and Greg Coleman)
agree. for sure would have to be either all individual or all team. don't think you could say "I've got the '72 Steelers line and now give me Ray Lewis" or something like that and have a credible draft. Just doesn't make sense. If you can draft **** Butkus why wouldn't you be able to draft Deacon Jones?That said the WIS sim doesn't allow IDP's so you'd have to go elsewhere if you wanted a sim.
adding in O-line is different. Sure some guys became stars in their own right but for the most part they are recognized as "units" anyway. D-lines don't work like that.
and as IWKS said many d-lines aren't the same. 3-4 vs 4-3, ect.
