*** VD 15 Commentary Thread ***

Well, I finally finished projections with so few picks left. I am pretty sure if you are 7th in your own projections, you'll be luck to finish in the top 10, lol. FWIW, I see a close 4-way battle at the top with Johnny, Feral, CJ, and revo. Incredibly close between the top three, and I think I don't have revo's WC pick right, so he's probably higher than I projected. The other three have enough garbage left that they are easier to figure out. Only 4-5 players on two teams, but some could be very important. At least one is incredibly meaningless because he's garbage.

Yeah, like I said earlier, there’s going to be a few battleground players, and most of them were crap. I’m pretty sure I know the one you’re talking about.

I have the same top 4, but one pretty far above the others. I still don’t like to discuss the potential winners and losers, because it could be discouraging to the rest.

Ok, I had to take him anyway. Hindsight is 20/20 (ha ha) in these drafts. But this is a super hard game and this format makes it even harder.

The Marco Estrada pick blew my mind. Did not see that comimg. I am sure it was a good pick but without spending a huge amount of time it is hard to figure other teams needs and constraints

I want to discourage the ones at the bottom so I don't lose to them!!!!

That being said, CJ's pick just threw off all my picks for him (and eliminated a guy I had for two people). Hmmmm. I would just go and adjust my projections, but it still won't help me, so why bother?

Paralyzed With Indecision

If I were forming a band right now, that'd be the name.

We'd be a progressive metal outfit.

Instead of progressive maybe regressive

I bet an updated history thread would have helped you with your decision making. I know it would help me.

I feel like you're trying to tell me something.

[heyelander]

I feel like you're trying to tell me something.

I do feel a bit guilty because apparently I'm the only one lazy enough not to do this myself... then again, I think I'm on brand, and delegation is an important step in my development plan.

Urgh. I knew DMT was a threat on Robinson, but figured he wouldn't use his final WC on him. I chose poorly!

I kept expecting you to take him but you never did!

(My options at MI were mostly awful and I had originally settled on another Dodger many rounds ago after hacko snaked Newcombe, but Robinson works out better.)
