We've all been jacked by injuries. Depth has played a role. And late round value picks/free agent pickups has been huge this season.  My team actually has gotten better with Bryce Harper, Price, Crawford and Utley out.  That defies all convention.

Here's another nugget. I have been playing fantasy baseball since age 12.  Before the web. Drafts in our living rooms. Stats tabulated by hand with sunday's USA today.  Stud hitters then were 30 HR guys. There were very few injuries!  My theory: as steroids came into the game, when Sammy Sosa, Brady Anderson, Mark McGwire, Barry Bonds and Luis Gonzalez went nuts, the muscles got too big and put more strain on tendons and ligaments than is intended.  Therefore more injuries.  At first, everyone was saying the ball was juiced.  That it was more tightly wound in the guts. But now we know better.

About Braun, he tested positive last year.  He attacked an innocent man and claimed sample tampering and skated on a bull**** technicality.  MLB is out to nail him this time.

What do we have to do to get Bug or Pearson to pick up Francisco Liriano? 

You guys waiting for a written invitation?

I found a single Imperial Navy Trooper 4 times in the last 2 weeks at TRU and Target. Along with the rest of that case.  My Walmarts have gotten zero for a year. Like since the Phantom Menace wave. Which is still on the pegs.

Oh Jesus you guys let Pearson win? 

At least I got in on Nick Fury .

I've got a question on Deadpools; I wonder if y'all can help me out.  So I've got the gray Night Force one from the three pack, and I've got the red single carded one from the Wolverine movie line.  But then there's the red one from the MU 2-pack that came with Taskmaster and a red one from the Wolverine line that came with some kind of cannon. 

I don't like the red one I've got; I especially hate his backpack.  I really like the sculpt of the gray Night Force one, and am wondering, if I begin scrounging around for a replacement red, are either of the other two (comic 2-pack or Wolverine Cannon) the same sculpt as the Night Force one?  Or even the same height?

Thank.s

I think the bottom of this thread has the info you seek.

I dig the X-Force version from the 3 pack and the one from the Taskmaster 2 pack.

Scott your team sucks donkey balls.

I am scared.

Okay me and my buddy from high school that normally plays with us will probably join you.
