[nick]

Even if Ry takes AL red there will be 2 more open spots right? I can pick AL red with him if I wanted? Or am I completely not understanding this draft?

You watch your tone! It's only 6:45pm. Probably should go to sleep, nothing else to do here.

Wake up
Fly
Eat (if there is food)
masturbate, because I am bored
go to sleep

Pretty much my day in a nutshell

When did New England and Alabama flip which group they were in (Top 12 vs Bottom 18)?

before he posts, I can tell you shel will go AL Blue

I saw that, but 0.002 percentage points on a 20+ season win percentage is trumping the fact that a Top 12 team in a now closed division finished a net 95.5 games out of first the last two seasons?

Shit, Port Orange finished a net 65 games ahead of NE the last two seasons -- and they're now supposed to represent the top of that division together?

This is not a dig at Dave, he's rebuilding and that's part of the process. I hope he'll prove me wrong here and rebound to form quickly, but I didn't think that was his plan from what he's been doing this year and last (full scrub of the entire organization to rebuild, not a quick turnaround re-tool).

I hear you but lets not act like the bottom 18 are all scrubs. some solid teams there

[GeorgesGoons]

C'mon Ry, lets go to the AL Red together.

100% agree. And I'd expect Bama to join you as, net record wise, you'll probably represent the least combined wins of the divisions after the first round. So maybe it all works out, but it sure feels weird this round.

If I understand this all, the AJ/Riccio division is closed for me to pick, right?

If so, give me AL White, the one Nick is in.

Where were you during this entire process to say "Hey I think we should use X years for our sample size and here's the results"? You didn't say anything until it potentially affected you, and again put in what work to the discussion? Using the historical data was not me manipulating things to help myself, just presenting the most complete set of data. At any point, someone could have stepped forward and said okay let's vote on how many years to use since we had some want 3 and others saying 5, and I'm sure others having a different opinion. I think going forward we will need to determine how many years we will keep the divisions before redrafting and that will affect how many previous years to consider (IE keeping divisions for 3 years = using last 3 years for order).

I don't think it affects him at all. Maybe I am not seeing the whole picture though
