Does this cartoon represent me? We'll find out this Sunday!

Somebody has to recognize Jobu’s talents, it might as well be him.

When I started this blog, it was because I wanted an outlet for all my opinions about and my love for sports. When I felt like we needed some more content, I reached out to friends to help me recruit writers. Yes, I am trying to [slowly] establish a real blog, and I think we’re doing OK.

It’s times like these, however, where I am really glad I own this domain and run this blog, because it gives me a platform from which to profess my own awesomeness at fantasy sports!

So when is it appropriate to start planning for next year? Continue reading →

Jobu tells a cautionary tale of what happens when even too much isn’t enough…

I haven’t given much fantasy baseball advice this season (we did lots of strategy advice posts last year, you can read them all here), but there’s something I find myself struggling with in my current season. I’m not sure if it’s the ever living drive for perfection or just sheer boredom, but I always want to make that one last pickup or tweak that will put my team over the top, even though my team is already in first place. I am here to tell you guys not to do this, because it could ruin everything.
