Ok

 

[Steve Tasker]

Everything seems to indicate that he is going to start...it's just a tenuous spot for him.

Anyone know if Nani and/or Drogba have been officially ruled out

 

[Steve Tasker]

modkill imo

 

[cheese]

Pretty sure Nani is out for the whole cup and will be replaced. You've got a shot at Drogba still playing last I heard.

 

[CletiusMaximus]

Nani has been ruled out and replaced on Portugal's roster; Drogba is still with the team and may play.

About once every 2 weeks I ride all the way. It's about 45 mins each way.Usually, I ride to BART (commuter train) then take the train, then bike to work. Total time is again about 45 mins.

 

[derek245583]

I have a question/concern re: the roster changes after the group stages....

So, Team X comes in last place in the group stages and gets first pickups for the knockout stages...Here is what he has left:

3 ST

2 MF

5 Def

1 GK

He has to pick up 2 MF's. Then he has to cut a Striker and a defensemen, to get down to 4-4-2. He has an option to replace 1 more guy with his 3rd pickup.

NOW, here is the next question....Team Z comes in second last place....He gets second crack. Does he get to pickup from the people that Team X cut? So if Team X had to cut a Brazilian Defensemen, can Team Z use of their voluntary or mandatory pickups to pick up that Brazilian defender or is he off limits?

Just trying to figure out the logistics of the next big part of this fiasco.

 

[CletiusMaximus]

I think Heskey is starting. Can't believe he was still there.

With only two teams needing a 4th ST before my last pick, I went with a GK, but Hesky was on my list for the last pick. He is very likely to start for England, and could easily get an assist or even a goal. It is perhaps not a big surprise that Defoe and Crouchie went long before Hesky (poor Emile never gets any respect), but I think he is about equal with them in terms of expected value in fantasy points.

The way I read it, everyone makes their cuts, then pickups take place.

This is why I think trades would be fun, but I expect they are not allowed just due to the administrative nightmare, which is completely understandable.

 

[Detroit Fan 365]

anyone know what site we're using for scoring?

 

[Steve Tasker]

Microsoft Excel

 

[boubucarow]

I am checking out for a while. I have a list for Detroit's last pick so send a PM when he comes up.

 

[boubucarow]

anyone know what site we're using for scoring?

Microsoft Excel

I have a sheet set up with the rosters and the formulas for the scoring. Do you have anything set up or do you want me to send you a copy when the draft is over?

 

[Detroit Fan 365]

No I mean like ESPN, Cbssports, foxsports, sites not software.

Denis Caniza, DF, Paraguay

 

[Sebowski]

Pedro MF Spain



Have two guys ahead of him on my sheet, but I have a feeling Pedro will get time and make an impact.

 

[Sebowski]

If you want to make sure your guy is there just plug his last name in the "search topic" box at the top.

 

[cheese]

Park Ji Sung MF South Korea

Its always nice to know that someone else would have considered drafting your guy.... even if it was 12 rounds later.

I can't tell if I massively over-reached and he legit though Park would be there in the 17th...or if he was thinking "####, gotta pick soon...ummm Park is good...I'll take him'

Oh I wouldn't say that you massively overreached...

 

[kupcho1]

I think my team is complete (barring a trade & snipe by Cletius, since only he and I need STs). I'm pretty sure I know I will select.
