Unbelievable Gekko. You post results from WCOFF in another thread, and then dismiss these results because of blind bidding? Last I checked, WCOFF has blind bidding also. You can't spin data to make it work just for you. Only a hypocrite does that.

At least JP had a fresh take to support his claim. You just keep spewing regurgitated garbage.

LB - NO SPIN HERE. I'm not sure why you keep trying to "get" me? Is it something personal? In any event, draft slots for League A were decided via the blind bidding process . <insert lightbulb comment> UFS posted NEW information about the league standings (to date) being random. I connected the dots.

The WCOFF does NOT have blind bidding on draft slots. You need to check your sources, they have proven wrong again.

You want to "get" me...roll the dice and take your chances.

But the reason I posted this was to show that the blind bidding process doesn't make much difference at all from the drafts we did w/o the process. The blind bidding advantage is only a perceived one, not a real one.

Meaning, that you can't find any consistent patterns from all the NFFC snake drafts this year.

Adn when you do find any meaningful patterns at season's end, the most prevailing of zillions of variables is the seriousness of the injuries to 1st and 2nd round picks during the year.

I'll still take that beer.

My bad Gekko, I jumped the gun on this one. I thought you were still harping on your draft slotting and UFS was supporting the other side. I just happen to agree with UFS and Greg/Tom about the necessity (or lack of) for bidding on draft slots.

I don't understand your "get" comment. I have nothing against you. Your comments on this board makes you an easy target. It all started when you first boasted about your "staff". I still get a kick out of that. But like I said before, I met you in Vegas and you seem to a regular guy. No harm intended. I was just happy to use that graemlin.

BTW, here are the current results for LV #6 by points:

13
4
8
