connorp Old-Timey Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Most certainly does not. Toss out any non-monetary wager for regular season records and I'm down, princess

connorp Old-Timey Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Correct if I'm wrong but wasn't Boxys squad in LOD ranked like top 2 coming off draft and he's like "I knew I killed it"..lol.. Whomp whomp
connorp Old-Timey Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Muslims aren't allowed to gamble bro
ace3113 Verified Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 When the list was posted last night we were 12th now we're 15th. I guess some new data came to light. lol
BTS Community Moderator Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Muslims aren't allowed to gamble bro lol, so your appreciation has gone beyond a mere outside interest?
connorp Old-Timey Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I wasn't overly serious. If I had to define my faith itd be the Arabic word hanif. Faith of Abraham. Basically believe in God and do good while here. I have some agnostic too. But I try not to gamble and such. Fantasy pools are a little diff

AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I posted the wrong list last night. Those were the pitcher rankings. As for the six-year-value, I basically just take the expected 2016 value, and add modifiers based on age. Basically, I expect players over 28 to decline, and players under 28 to improve. The model doesn't do a good job with young players who have a low base score though. So, a 22 year old who shows significant promise but isn't projected to help a ton this year, won't score that well. I might do another one based on just 2016 values. Don't pay too much attention to rankings though. I've seen plenty of teams expected to do poorly, do quite well, and I've seen teams ranked 1st, with multiple elite players, finish at the bottom of the league and drop out, but still have time for other dynasty leagues.
BTS Community Moderator Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 One month avatar bet is what I'm suggesting. Sure.

connorp Old-Timey Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Lol @ religion Talk to me in 2k years (max) when everyone blows each other up and our planet is a wasteland. Consider human history, scientific advances, and tell me Its not the probable outcome
connorp Old-Timey Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Sure. Done. Winner picks losers avatar

Don't worry Greenwood.. ITT: People mad at you for doing some honest, value-add (at the very least fun-add) hard work cause you didn't rank their team well.
TRM Verified Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I feel like this might be a shot at someone in particular, but I'm not sure who. AG has targeted a new whipping boy, and at this persons expense he plans to try and infiltrate the DDL.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I'm having none of that s***

Consider human history, scientific advances, and tell me Its not the probable outcome Extinction is inevitable for all species and planets alike. I'm not sure I understand your point... religion has contributed more to the impending apocalypse than any other factor, including nuclear weapons.

TRM Verified Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I'm a Republican on the side so we'll agree to disagree A republican and a religious person? What's next, a cop eating a donut?!?
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 In a Republican on the side so we'll agree to disagree I doubt you'll agree to disagree. Both of those things are for idiots, and NJH really can't help himself when it comes to idiocy.
