Your style of donwplaying your chances is working bro :lol: Panalo ka na!

 

You are now up in blocks with Darko giving you 5 in today's game. Congrats bro!!!

Parang matat*e ako sa excitement at suspense ng labanang gwapogs at commish!

 

6-5 in favor of commish.

 

Pero Pero Pero pwedeng magbago dahil ang magiging championship point decider would be the FG%.

 

Naglalaro pa si Odom kay commish at si Walton kay Gwapogs, .7% lang ang lamang ni commish!

 

Hawak bayan!

 

Hehehehehe!

 

Commish, yung championship round natin sa kabila biglang gumanda nakahabol ako 5-6!

Pero sure ka na dun. Congrats!

 

(edit)Side note, parang matat*e at masusuka rin ako sa laban ng LAKERS ko.

Kelangan nila manalo to clinch a playoff spot. T*ngna kasing Sonics to eh, ayaw pang ibigay ang LABAN! Sumuko na kayo. Leeeeeccchhh!!!

Current read: Head-to-Head Uncertainty Principle; "No Collusion, No Veto Policy"

Authoring: Principles of the Trade and Veto: Not only a supply & demand issue

 

-->care to enlighten us on these perceptions bro? :cool:

 

Here is the H2H Uncertainty Principle. And I found out about it when we were already mid-season in our NBA league. I was punting the BLKs cat and as per this principle it was never a good idea. But hey, it nearly worked for me. :D

 

 

The Head-to-Head Uncertainty Principle

 

In quantum theory, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle tells us that the more precisely we know a particle's position the less precisely we know its velocity, and vice versa. This has something to do with photons and wavelengths and the characteristics of very tiny things. But you probably didn't come here to get tips for your fantasy quantum physics league. So let's get to baseball.

 

The head-to-head uncertainty principle tells us that when the season is parsed into week-long slices, we can't accurately predict any individual player's performance. It's only seven days. Baseball is a game in which it literally takes years for a player's true ability to express itself. Over a full season, we can confidently say that Mariano Rivera will get 35 saves, Juan Pierre will steal 45 bases, Adam Dunn will hit 40 homers, and a healthy Chris Carpenter will win at least 15 games. But what will those guys do next week? Maybe nothing. Maybe a lot. None of them can guarantee you a win in any stat in a given week. If you want to regularly win a category, get multiple players who excel in that category. Redundancy is key. Don't simply rely on one player's proficiency in any given area. They won't distribute their stats evenly throughout the season. Nobody does that. Players tend to binge, then fast.

 

To better understand the uncertainty principle, let's take a look at an elite base stealer. Carl Crawford led the American League in thefts last year with 58. He's a top-tier fantasy outfielder and a clear first-round pick. Basically, Crawford is to fantasy experts what the ACC is to Dick Vitale: an institution with mythic talent that cannot be overhyped. In roto leagues you can draft Crawford and feel confident that you've addressed stolen bases to a reasonable extent. No need to think much about them in your later picks, really. If you accidentally get a couple more league-average base stealers, you're no worse than middle of the pack. But head-to-head leagues are trickier. You can't lean on any individual player too heavily. Take a look at Crawford's stolen base totals from April 2006:

 

Week One: 1 SB

Week Two: 2 SB

Week Three: 1 SB

Week Four: 2 SB

 

Useful, sure. But two stolen bases are never enough to win the category. If you don't have other sources for steals, you lose. Crawford did have an eight-steal week in May, though. That was probably more than enough to win the week. Later in the year he posted a six-steal week and a five-steal week – that's a third of his total stolen bases in only three weeks, for those keeping score. After a three-steal game against Boston on July 5, Crawford stole exactly one base over his next 26 games. That's four weeks with only one steal. It happens. It's not unique to Crawford. He can certainly help you in head-to-head leagues, but don't expect him or anyone else to single-handedly deliver a bunch of category wins. That takes redundancy. If you're determined to control steals every week (which is kind of silly, because steals aren't strongly correlated with other categories), you need to draft multiple guys who are better than league average.

 

Even though one guy by himself can't win a category very often, one guy is still better than no guy. Don't use the head-to-head uncertainty principle as justification to totally ignore a category in your league. That's never advisable.

 

 

The "No collusion, no veto policy" employed in some fantasy leagues state that as long as there is no cheating (one team dumping his better players to another team), trades shouldn't be vetoed.

 

The question of course is how to prove "pre-meditated" connivance between the two GMs.

 

The one I'm authoring, I haven't finished yet. It's about the "NCNV Policy" and how it affects league balance or to put it properly league imbalance, 2 for 1 trades, when is the best time to make a trade, etc etc.

 

 

:cool:
