Ragot and Owens cornered me on the team bus and told me everyone was doing it.
I'm starting a Fairness Fund.

Damn Craig, how do you still have 4 transfers left? I'm screwed going into LBL.
Apr 18, 2013 at 01:42 PM
I created a transfer schedule at the beginning and have been sticking to it. I need to make those 4 transfers count.
Apr 18, 2013 at 02:57 PM
Wait, you can plan this stuff???
Apr 18, 2013 at 03:11 PM
It is a novel concept. I'm guessing you don't have a lesson plan. ;-)eragot said:Wait, you can plan this stuff???

@Jeff - I'm locked and loaded. Hopefully none of the guys gets pulled over for littering...

Damn, you Craig and your scheduled transfers! You pulled it off, congrads.
That's three 2nd place finishes for me in as many fantasy games...always a bride's maid.
Next up Giro. Stayed tuned.

Yeah Craig, nice pick on Martin. And glad to see that Ryder may have some form.
Pretty sure Sean Kelly jumped up and gave Harmon a kiss when Martin won. He sounded all gushy.

@Jeff Thanks. - I looked up the results from a kids party at Bounce U. I felt confident with 6 of the top 10 riders.Let's get you some more points in the L&C cup. I'd rather see you do well there than in fantasy land.

Fantasy Giro D'Italia time. Here are the league details:
League Name: Kissena
League Code: 29152043
You have until Saturday to sign up and create a team. For the uninitiated, it is free and the only stakes are bragging rights.

@craig Oh damn, you beat me to it. I just created a Kissena league and was going to post the number now. After the work of Fantasy Classics, looking forward to a low maintenance game. For those who haven't done it before, all you need to do it pick your team once. Makes following the Giro that much more fun. The more the merrier so pick your team by Saturday morning. Link below.
May 02, 2013 at 01:22 PM
come on guys - this is free, easy and you get bragging rights. Just pick 9 riders while staying within the budget and watch how they perform. Register by Saturday morning. Sign-up, create your team and then enter the league.

Where's the "horrified" badge?
May 02, 2013 at 07:28 PM
I am so going to not win this. And so, I will pepper my roster with has beens and never was's from Euskatel.
Also, beware Jim Nelson and his Legendary Black Beast of Aaaarrrrrggggghhhhhh. He's got a vicious streak a mile wide, with sharp, pointy teeth.
May 03, 2013 at 11:08 AM
whatever you do, don't pick Sir Wiggo.
May 03, 2013 at 12:48 PM
shit, why not? that was the only rider i picked on purpose
May 03, 2013 at 12:58 PM
@alyoshas is right - wiggo is not a good pick. oh well.
May 03, 2013 at 01:03 PM
cause he's rubbish, that's why.
May 03, 2013 at 01:05 PM
my randomly-selected batch of misfits is going to make you regret the day you joined the fantasy league
THERE I SAID IT
May 03, 2013 at 01:10 PM
that's the spirit...i guess, may work if they're the ones pushing the break that gets reeled in every time. i think there are leagues that celebrate winning 0 points. I also know dudes that pick their riders solely on phonetics.
May 03, 2013 at 01:13 PM
i've never done a fantasy league and just wanted to feel cool...
May 03, 2013 at 01:44 PM
i wanted to pick wiggins, i really did. but my head said no. and i am not sure the 4-point spread is valid.
i did, however, pick someone based purely on their name. step forward, christian knees.
May 03, 2013 at 02:22 PM
don't sleep on the colombian climbers. bring on Passo dello Stelvio!
May 03, 2013 at 02:29 PM
You can't look at what other people chose until the deadline has passed?! Where am I supposed to steal all my ideas from?
Man I got a bunch of crap. BEWARE OSPINA.
