Voters will forget this start for both Hamilton and Texas if he slumps or is injured after the All-Star break, but given his career numbers and this being a contract year he was the favorite before Opening Day to run away with the AL MVP and it will take a lot working against him from keeping that award out of his hands.
If I am remembering right he won the MVP in 2010 even after missing most of September. So this kind of start really does give him a sizable lead.
It's just amazing to sit back and watch what he's doing right now. One of the best stretches of hitting I ever remember watching. I'm not a Rangers fan, but there games are must watch on mlb.tv for me because of Hamilton.

The rumors I have read are saying its those three GoGo. As soon as I heard about this I was terrified it'd be Colton, but he's probably not coming back until the next season. I approve of those three choices if that's who it really ends up being. Russell Swan I can take or leave, but Skupin and Penner are both people I think deserve to come back and will be interesting to watch.
I agree Kim was a phenomenal player and deserved that win completely, but it was a really meh season. She was such a cerebral player that it did make her come off as boring most of the times. I also blame the casting partially for the boringness of this season. They were clearly going for people with big personalities who were wacky. They got that, but they also got stupid people who were easily picked off by smarter players and a completely unfair playing field. Honestly the only guy on the island I feel like knew how to play the game was Troyzan, and I seriously question even that a lot of times, especially after last night.
Even final tribal was boring last night. Just a rough season, hopefully producers learn from their casting mistakes.

I won't be around for a live finish tomorrow night, but I will try and get a list to Sahyder and JStarr so I can be autopicked.
-
Brandon Beachy - SP, Atlanta Braves
-
Adam Jones - OF, Baltimore Orioles
-
I believe I have a few players left on my list, so just give me my highest rated hitter left on my pick.
-
I'm out right now. Will send a two round list when I get home, it will be done before 11 PM.
-
Am I the only one who hasn't picked a pitcher yet?
-
I'll go with Dan Uggla - 2B, Atlanta Braves
-
Going to go with...
Jay Bruce - OF, Cincinnati Reds
-
Tough call to make here....But I am going to roll with...
David Wright - 3B, New York Mets
-
Yeah, with my pick coming up I was pretty excited that I was getting either Longo or Gonzalez. I preferred Gonzalez slightly, but would've been more than happy with either.
-
I'll take Carlos Gonzalez, OF - Colorado Rockies
-
I say we get as many rounds in as we can and than finish the draft in a draft room. Sahyder should be able to just enter the guys we already have in as keepers for our teams.

Darko's come around to be a serviceable player made more important by his size. He could have been a lot more. Who knows what would have happened if Carmelo, Bosh, or Wade had ended up there.
Thinking about what if the Pistons had taken someone else still keeps me awake some nights, haha. What a crushing thought for a Pistons fan.
In fairness to Joe Dumars though it was never Chris Bosh or Dwayne Wade being considered, it was always Darko or Melo. Most people were shocked the Heat picked Wade when they did. Still the thought of Melo on that Pistons team is troubling. The one thing that kept that team from winning another title was always the lack of a go-to scorer.

MPH...if I would've had the first pick I would've taken Cabrera too.
With the fourth pick of the draft... The Prince of Pie and DUI will select: Albert Pujols, 1B - Los Angeles Angels
-
Just a head's up my life is crazy, so I can't always check this as often as I like, but if the person before me shoots me an e-mail when I am up I will respond ASAP.
I will do the same with whoever is picking after me. Speeds the process up.

I want in, considering I pulled off the perfect season last year I think I deserve a chance to go back-to-back
I re-joined the league from last year that Lowerdeck sent out invites for. Do I need to join a different league instead?
If so send me the invite...madeofclay@gmail.com
I'd love a board draft if it got started ASAP
-
Anyone have or have played Fortune Street yet? I just bought it last night, only played it for a little while, but it's quite a bit of fun. Just hoping it doesn't get old too fast as it might get repetitive after a few games.
-
Vitor has Wanderlei coming up next I believe.
I wouldn't mind seeing Bisping take on Weidman though. Another good test for Weidman and a chance for Bisping to bounce back.
And I also hate Nick Diaz, and would love nothing more than to see Condit smash him. It's going to be a hell of a fight I think.

Can't remember if its been suggested before, but somebody ought to do a tag-team Mafia with 12 pairs of players. Each pair will be masons the sense that they can talk to each other, but otherwise will share a single ability. So 24 votes, but lynching or killing a player will also eliminate his partner. What do you guys think?
I did the shared ability with a couple guys, or certain roles would only activate after a partner's death. The lynching a player leads to his partner's death too idea is interesting. Would make the game quick. Would also allow mafia two kills each night essentially though.

Kobe is playing like a pissed off monster right now.
-
There might be a couple of spots; some people haven't posted and there is still one player who hasn't read his role PM.
Just let me know when its time for a line change and I am in.
