Tommy Bond was born about 50 miles away from were my father's family would have lived around this time (1856). They were forced to move north during the Irish Civil War (early 1920's).

My strategy isn't working nearly as well as I had hoped.
And I'm really annoyed at myself for not taking into account other decades that Bernie Williams could have been taken in. I took Eppa Rixey this round because there were 3 other teams that needed a 1910s pitcher and they were all ahead of me.Last edited by Long John; 05-04-2012, 11:43 AM."Igor, would you give me a hand with the bags?"

Not that I know of...I just looked at them under the assumption that since some of the other players taken who played very early on had stat line changes, that others might have also. I was really bored last night and couldn't sleep.Originally posted by SeaDogStat View PostConsidering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?Comment

I wouldn't call top 5 a bad finish ...Originally posted by eldiablo505Comment

Let me annoy you more. I have 27 pitchers I'm considering for my 1910s slot, was 29 before the round started. Pfiester and Ruth were both on the LONG list...Rixey never was. I don't know about the other two, but you could have waited on Rixey.Originally posted by Long John View Post
But I know your pain...Pfiester was one of the favorites on my list...and I didn't consider the idea he could be taken in other decades.Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?Comment

Considering my re-pick in the first round, almost no prep time, the side of the confusion of KOs I fell on (which set my draft strategy and was ripped away once the issue was settled), and my long hiatus from Vintage Drafting....I'm just hoping for a top 10 finish.Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?Comment

Just going by my projections, which to be fair I haven't optimized in a couple of days (apart from switching picks etc) ... I have you leading a pack of 3/4 for that 5th slot ... and about 5 points back of 4th.Originally posted by eldiablo505Comment

That doesn't annoy me nearly as much because I didn't think anyone else would be able to absorb Rixey's career WHIP and ERA numbers like I could. Still, I feared someone would jump on the best career combo of Wins/Ks left in that decade. And Rixey gives me the best possible finish based on who's left.Originally posted by Pogues View Post"Igor, would you give me a hand with the bags?"

Still no love for Albert Belle ... what has this poor guy done to piss us off. If he can't get picked in a deep KO draft, where his decade got hammered the hardest, then he has no chance.

By the way, can you not embed videos in here anymore? If you could, I assume you would have posted this instead (NSFW) --
