WIS XV: Alphabet Soup with a side of Salary- Draft & Season Thread (1 Viewer)

[Doctor Detroit]

If Carlos Zambrano wasn't on my pitching staff, I would actually think it's pretty decent. I'm sure the Cubs have thought the same thing for years.

 

[Arsenal of Doom]

I'm just going to go ahead and make my wildcard selection now:

Warren Hacker

Championship.

 

[Super Nintendo Chalmers]

Chemical X OTC xx:57

TRE

Dirkswish

Brady Marino

Pumpnick

the moops

Arsenal

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

BTW, I think I've lost in 3 WS now. #vikings

 

[RnR]

So we're going to finish this thing today, right? Divisions ready? We should be ready to get this thing off the ground with WIS tomorrow since half the league is apparently already in SimLive.

$/IP is strangely high for CZ. I imagine $/IP is not a magic-key number, but it still makes me wonder. And it's not for his fielding, either.

I hope not. Trying to understand EB5 investment vehicles.

Bat? WIS charges an exorbitant amount for good hitting pitchers.

I have a feeling about this one. Think Broncos not Vikings.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

The sim live divisions are great until we get into the season and six of the people who requested a sim live division, never play a game. Preseason sim live<>regular season sim live.

From my experience here are the guys who play sim live during the season with great frequency:

Mr Phoenix

Me

Greco

Shake

Koya

Pump until he gets mad and quits

Sparty

RnR

I haven't been in the league with many of you newer guys except two iterations ago where I remember Arsenal and Moops playing a lot.

Divisions are still undecided. I think we'll go alphabetical by WC pick. I need to boot TWO people from this list to make the live league:SimLive League?1- RnR2- lolly boy3- Brady marino4- Greco5- SCBF6- moops7- Koya8- Chem X9- Pampernickle10- Kubes11- Shake12- Sparty13- Tre14 - Doctor D

I think I played more live games than anyone last sim....I love playing live. It seems like guys want to play alot for the first week or so, then it tails off.

 

[RnR]

Lolly boy deserves the boot for being a dragon-fearing idiot, and Tre deserves the other boot for similar reasons.

I forgot you, but you've played a lot of live games over the years too.

 

[Arsenal of Doom]

24 live games is about right for me, so I'm happy to be in the "non-live" league but sim-live my games against those teams.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Lolly boy deserves the boot for being a dragon-fearing idiot, and Tre deserves the other boot for similar reasons.

Tre plays five games and then we never see him again. Larry should be booted because when you are playing live with him, he lets his team go to auto commands and has 30 minute line-up changes which gives you the eerie suspicion he may be masturbating to mideget pr0n.

 

[Brady Marino]

Lollyboy should be gone from Liveleeg for sure (don't see him much on Live).

Other one is tough.

 

[jfranco77]

OK, the crowd has spoken

SimLive League

1- RnR

2- Doctor D

3- Brady marino

4- Greco

5- SCBF

6- moops

8- Chem X

9- Pampernickle

10- Kubes

11- Shake

12- Sparty

 

[Brady Marino]

I expect an explosive drunken tirade from TRE any second now.

Then I show up in live and no one is there. Then I post in the thread and no one is there. What am I missing?Think I got about 20 games in last season.

 

[Doug B]

Finally can post some line-up permutations. What my squad lacks in freakish stats, it makes up for in flexibility. That's probably a bad trade-off, but ... eh. I got what I got.

[Notorious T.R.E.]

I'll be in the other league, no worries. I see I'm not wanted. Can't believe my great friend DD would do me like that.

No you stay in the sim live league, I'll leave.

I smell a "Loser Leave Town" match in Sim-Live brewing. High stakes.

 

[the moops]

Any of you nerds want to advise me on my last pick? Have it down to two guys, but have never played with either, so dont know how they fare.

How much attention should be paid to performance history? One guy has better real life stats, but worse performace stats.

 

[Bogart]

WC Round - Walter James Vincent "Rabbit" Maranville - 2B/SS/Manager/Mascot/Team Drunk

No real surprise here. Going with his 1922 season. If he hits a home run off anyone else in this sim, I will mock and laugh at your team every day for a week.

Performance history is based on open league performance. I don't know how useful they'll be for a high cap theme league

Post #3047. Previous page. It was OF Cy Williams.

His high normalized HR rate did well in one of our other sims.

 

[Brady Marino]

24.21- 3B Bob Bailey

Basically Tony Perez with less ABs, less contact, and a bit more pop.

 

[Doug B]

His high normalized HR rate did well in one two of our other sims.

One of those guys who's produced for me. Don't know if the sim engine will be as kind today as it was in the past ... but I'll roll the dice.

 

[Bogart]

I just saw that the moops has 'A' left as well. Would be funny if he actually takes the one spare I have ready to take.

I was trying to find a way to work him into my team.
