It is Houston Street right? Or is it my east coast bias that's been causing me to screw up his name for like 3 months?

Edit:

Aparently we were both wrong....Huston Street.

any spreadsheet, its difficult to scan through the yahoo site and try to figure out who is left....b/c the players aren't be plucked off the free agent list yet and placed onto teams. I'm not complaining, I was just wondering if somebody had a better way.

Why not print off a list from Yahoo or TSN or Fanball or whatever to mark off as you go along?

Yeah, that's kindof where I'm at, too. Yes, I have a spreadsheet. No, I can't share it because, frankly, I did the legwork for it and it's what I'm using so I don't want to share it with someone else just so they can snatch up all my picks.

What I typically do is just print out a couple of lists and check off as I go along with those.

Some of you may have seen me post in the past about the Fantasy magazines put out by the company I work for (http://www.fantasysports.ca). Well, our Baseball preview was released today, and is available for free download if anybody's interested.

It's PDF, 197 pages, full-color, and download only. (We do a printed newsstand version of the hockey mag, but it's the only one big enough to warrant the additional production costs at the moment.)

At any rate, if you want a copy, you can get one here: http://magazine.forecaster.ca/baseball2006/

Johnny93g · 03-06-2006, 01:35 PM

Thanks Simms, i really enjoyed the Hockey Foreceasater....(wonder if i should take another look at that and see how accurate it was)....and im sure ill enjoy this one as well.

Much Appreciated

sterlingice · 03-06-2006, 04:14 PM

A little under 2 hours to go

I just went and made a list of the top 200 of Yahoo using O-Rank so i can use it to see who gets autopicked if he doesn't make a pick. I'll post that in a bit, once I finish some other stuff, since Ramzavail was looking for a list of that ilk.

SI

sterlingice · 03-06-2006, 04:45 PM

Ok, posted a list on my page with the Yahoo list. The first column is Yahoo O-Rank (that which is used to make "cpu" picks for the draft). For example, in a little over an hour, Troy Glaus will be picked for BigMac'sSpecialSauce as he's the top player on the list not already taken. The second column (FOFC HardC) is this draft, the third (FOFC SoftC) is the draft from last night in the other FOFC league. The colors don't really mean anything- they're a "tiering" of sorts (1-30 blue, 31-60 red, 61-120 magenta), part of my larger spreadsheet where this was taken from. I'll try to keep this updated and put some info about it in the top post.

Ramzavail · 03-06-2006, 05:05 PM

great, thanks

sterlingice · 03-06-2006, 05:12 PM

While waiting for the pick, Jockitch and the Lumber have a trade to announce with surplus guys:
Jockitch send Furcal and 11.2
Lumber send Blalock and 10.8

Keep in mind, there are some odd picks next round as there are now a couple of trades involving 10 round picks so keep that in mind. Spreadsheet will be updated shortly.

SI

Ramzavail · 03-06-2006, 05:13 PM

Confirmed.

sterlingice · 03-06-2006, 06:27 PM

BigMac'sSpecialSauce (list) picks Troy Glaus at 9.4

I'll be making my pick shortly and hopefully we can get some progress tonight.
