    I'm convinced I get everybody's best game when I play them. I've now lost twice and tied once after scoring over 170.

    Well, unless all 3 of your starters bomb, you're well on your way to spanking me this week. Only 15 points combined from my two big guns.

    I truely appreciate the help. I'm sure within the next hour Woody Williams will implode.

    Also, could you activate Giambi and put Rhodes on IR for me? Thanks.

    He hasn't quite imploded yet, but I can't believe the Cards are having this much trouble scoring off of Jose Acevedo.

    Edit that - my boy Edmonds just got one back for ya. Now I just need to get Mrs. Pujols to correct any flaws that Albert may have in the batters box.

    Mrs. Pujols must have noticed something.

    3-run jack by Albert.

    Sweet.

    Great Pimp. With Nixon off the DL I was going to accept your trade proposal finally.

    Oh well...

    I may come back at you. I have a few things cooking and need some responses.

    Check your desks people and email me if you need to.

    Started 5 pitchers and still only scored 103. Embarrassing weekend for the extra-terrestrials.

    A flaw or am I just an idiot? I want to remove Preston Wilson from the IR and move John Patterson to the IR. How can you do this when it only allows you to move one player at a time. No matter how I try it, it tells me no room on IR or it tells me I will exceed roster limit. Also if this gets done, please edit my starting lineup and put Wilson in instead of Winn. I will be gone most of the day tomorrow and will not be back before rosters are final.

    I've had it happen to me earlier in the season too. It's because if you take the guy off IR you have one too many players if you are using both IR spots, and you can't have 3 IR players.

    Yeah, that's a glitch in the system. I've been moving around IR players for people since the season started. I think I just found a way around it, though:

    I added an extra IR spot. This will allow you to switch injured players back and forth even with a full roster.

    For example, I have a full roster, with Nen and Valverde on IR. Let's say that Torii Hunter breaks his wrist and I want to activate Valverde. First, I place Hunter on IR (into the extra spot). Then, after that's done, I activate Valverde.

    Note that you are still only allowed to carry a maximum of two players on the IR. The extra spot is only there as a placeholder so you can move people even with a full roster. If anyone tries to abuse it by carrying 3 players on IR for an extended length of time, they will be castrated with a blunt spoon. ;)

    Why no pitchers? You can't win with no pitchers, and some of us still have illusions of winning this thing.

    Actually, Pimp would have beat me with no pitchers last week. He crushed me.

    Boo! A little early to tank games, isn't it? Wish I was getting a free pass this week.
