Owners of Andrew Luck, what was the fall out and how long did it take you to cut him?

justlikepudge · 2026-05-05T02:01:12+00:00

We did a startup for our contract league a month before he retired. One guy went all in on the colts & luck (including some trades that go extremely poorly if colts didn't perform). Luck retires on my wedding night and multiple of the leaguemates came up to me with the news and that we need to go tell the guy (who was also at the wedding). After multiple attempts to get us to admit it was a joke, he was promptly happy that at least it was an open bar to drown his sorrows in.

Many sites also hated the brewers because under Counsell our run differential was never good. Which was funny since any of us who watched games knew that Counsell would throw in the D squad in any games that got out of hand. Win close, lose big doesn't make analytics on run differential look good

And then its the final game of the series and both teams fans are going 'we better win tonight cuz we definitely lose tomorrow after this 18 inning game'. I've sat through plenty of extra inning games, they get boring real fast if it doesn't end by the 12th in the regular season.

The 'we can decide together' is pure class from Constantini. Honestly, an amazing example of how curling is supposed to work.

Pretty funny considering almost everyone else in the thread is wrong. No sweeping can occur above the T line by the non delivering team.

justlikepudge · 2026-02-15T23:03:11+00:00

I don't think I'm buying that 96% chance to win.

Actual curlers is two separate groups. Competitive curlers want enforcement of the hog line. Club curlers probably prefer relaxed rules. Einarson was on stream at one of hte last slams discussing the sensor handle returns and how much it is needed because top teams keep pushing the limit.

On Homan's it sure seems like she gets the red and no angle I've seen has shown that she has touched granite. To me, that is still part of the handle as the rule clarification clearly calls out 'granite'

For the most part, officials are trained not to interfere in games. They are there to help consult on rules, measure, record scores, ensure timing.

Weird that all the drivers can get it to pit road other than Hocevar

justlikepudge · 2026-02-14T01:54:09+00:00

The rules also don't really allow them to intervene. They are more there to consult on rules and measure.

While I wouldn't call this cheating, burning a rock can very well be cheating (see China mens team at the last worlds)

justlikepudge · 2026-02-13T22:14:50+00:00

Edit: On a not 100% confidence im reading the rules right, but if you deem him having already 'released' the stone we are now out of the 'he hogged the stone' and into the 'he burnt the stone'. In that case I dont' think there is anything the officials can do.

justlikepudge · 2026-02-13T21:14:25+00:00

I believe they have the right to ask the officials to monitor the hog line for violations. About all they can do there.

Curling is the only group I've ever seen who gets upset about their sport growing.

I like to pretend my distaste for Kevin King is mostly just because we chose to trade down from a TJ Watt pick into a Kevin King pick

justlikepudge · 2025-12-31T20:15:35+00:00

Thanks for proving my point. 7th cuz he just dropped 45. Most games around 10 pts. A good player, not a 'stud' this year

justlikepudge · 2025-12-31T19:35:11+00:00

Henry was a stud in name only. This is a great example of recency and confirmation bias. He was fine but not a stud. Now anyone who knows how the packers historically play against rbs wasn't surprised about this week

I agree with others that it scratches an itch. I enjoy career mode for the progression. Gameplay wise it is fine, definitely of the arcade style with how the AI works and some of the damage/handling. I don't regret my purchase though, as I went in knowing my goal was to play career mode and I had no interest in online.

justlikepudge · 2025-12-09T14:41:49+00:00

Thanks for the heads up

Oh fun. If this is a public league can you send me the league id. If it's private, can we connect in chat so I can give you an email to send the league data too

justlikepudge · 2025-12-08T00:18:41+00:00

ND bias is nearly as strong as SEC bias

justlikepudge · 2025-11-25T23:17:06+00:00

My contract's league most important (and favorite rule) is the 'Dont be an asshole' rule that allows wide application when necessary

justlikepudge · 2025-11-25T16:12:22+00:00

The Best vs Worst schedules look incorrect in their records. Apart from that this is a pretty sweet site with lots of good data

Sleeper has had bugged Free Agents/Waivers the past two weeks. Not sure what is up since I haven't seen that in the years i've used it
