You have plenty of time, YFIH(ell)

[Yankees13]

Looking at the questions again, how are we treating the two WCs? Does that count as a playoff spot? If the Yankees lose in the one-game playoff is the correct answer no playoffs or lose ALDS?

Anyone who doesn't enter this contest should be ashamed to call themselves a member of this site.

As I said in another thread, if you don't enter, you should get suspended when you start saying "I told you so," later in the year.

I was #75 when I entered last night.

So where's Andy Pettitte in this questionnaire?? haha

I was just thinking I better go check and see if there was an Andy Pettitte question in the contest.

A la 1.6 Bartolo Colon. Ooops, I've said too much

[SatchelPaigeYankee]

only a few more hours!

[SatchelPaigeYankee]

question: the front page says that if a player is on the DL that he counts as "on the roster. what if the player ends up on the AAA DL? presumably that doesn't count as "on the roster," yeah?

I thing the contest locks in 2 hours and 56 minutes!

You would think so, but last year it closed early and JP stuck out his tongue at everyone. very traumatic, I still have chills

Edit: well there we go, he did it again .....

*shivers*

Indeed he did. Guess I'm glad I got my first draft in. Oh well. Who knows? It could end up being better than the version with the corrections I intended to make.

[Dave Visbeck]

A lot of new players this time. Only wish there were more participants overall.

[Battingly]

Ah man, I didn't know the cut off date for edits was the 16th, I thought that was just for registration.

My fault, I didn't read the rules carefully.

[Yankee Tripper]

What is the ruling on the Joba ERA question if he doesn't pitch this year? I assume that get's thrown out (eitehr everyone gets it right or everyone gets it wrong). The IP one is easy since I'm getting that one wrong. Oh well.

It's a crazy world we live in nowadays isn't it?

Joba suffers a life and career threatening injury playing with his 5 year old son and our thoughts are

"Wait! What about the Prediction contest?!?!?!?!"

[GordonGecko]

Life threatening?

[Mr Coffee]

Life threatening?

If he was a horse maybe...

Hey, you've got to have your priorities straight!

[ZYanksRule]

Life threatening?

They say Joba lost a lot of blood when the bone went through the skin -- Daily News even reported he lost so much blood there was initial concern for his life.

And an injury like that can get infected, which can also be life threatening. This is a very serious injury, according to what's been reported.

[CalYankeeFan]

Hey, you've got to have your priorities straight!

Yeah! Don't get me wrong...I wasn't slamming you.

I've done the same thing.

As for the life threatening part: http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/ba...icle-1.1049622

That will be up to John ... I'll just say that from a technical standpoint, making everyone get it wrong is much easier than everyone getting it right. (And obviously there would be no difference in terms of the standings.)

[TinoFan84]

So I totally and completely forgot about this until now ... yep, it took Opening Day (at least the US version ) to smash me over the head ... so good luck to all, I'm bummed I didn't get in ... but it's not like I ever did well anyway ...
