I have a good excuse for that. I started gambling on games during the bowl season up to the super bowl, which started to take my attention away from fantasy basketball. By the time it was over, I was down a total of roughly $8000 and fantasy basketball wasn't really a concern.

It takes roughly 3 minutes to set your fantasy lineup for a week, so I don't see how your gambling issues will **** up using a whole 3 minutes a week. And you're STILL ignoring it, despite your gambling issues apparently being over.

You obviously haven't been in that situation, so I don't expect you to understand.

We're so close.

ATL, is your fantasy league taking shape? Is it gonna happen?

That's what the last post was in reference to. I'd ideally like to do it tomorrow, but any Sunday works really. However, we currently only have 8. I'd prefer 12, would settle for 10. I think 8 team leagues are ********.

Yankees have re-signed Andy Pettitte.

I don't get it.

Damix · 03-16-2012, 11:40 AM

Did not see that one coming.

Giantsfan1080 · 03-16-2012, 11:40 AM

Haha for real? You owe me a beer tonight since I predicted this and you laughed down at me.

I don't recall this conversation. Was it two Saturdays ago?

It was the day he retired. I said he would definitely be back. Anyway something must be up with a Yankees SP.

No I actually said I wouldnt be shocked if he even took a whole year. What SP isn't going to be in the rotation now? Garcia?

Garcia wasn't likely to make it before this. I have no clue. Nova was looking a little rough but his last outing was pretty good.

He won't break camp with the team so who knows what could happen by the end of April.

BuckNaked · 03-16-2012, 12:07 PM

I ******* love Andy Pettite. I don't care if he's ******* 63 with a broken hip, I'd still let him be on the 25 man roster.

There must be some kind of new steroid on the market.

Probably, but I don't really care. I don't get it from our end. By if Andy wants to come back I guess you can't say no. His last year with us was excellent. Potential ace on your staff.

OSUGiants17 · 03-16-2012, 01:00 PM

Most likely going to be I'm the bullpen if he doesn't replace Garcia. Either way I love the signing just because I love Pettitte and we could use another LHP.

He didn't come back to go to the bullpen. Garcia will be in the bullpen and I'd imagine either Nova/Pineda will go down or Hughes will go to the bullpen to make room for him.
