Friday Notes

I finally gave up on Mariano tonight. Very disappointing. I kept telling myself, "Just get me one save. Just one, you bum. "Hideous. I think he netted me about 50 negative rotohog points before selling him. No plans to buy him back anytime soon. And I'm getting so annoyed with the Money Schooled team of late that I'm starting two SP's tomorrow just to make myself feel a little better (or a lot worse.)

But what I need to remember is that this game is just like the stock market. If you let fear and greed play you, you will lose. Or as Jim Cramer would say, "Bulls make money, bears make money, pigs get slaughtered." I have a sound strategy, it has worked to large degree so far, and I plan to be still writing on this blog come September.

Speaking of strategy, I'm wondering to myself, "If my team is only worth about $600, I'm right on pace with position players and innings, and I'm in 139th place, am I still in this thing?" And when I say, "in this thing" I mean a shot at $100K.

I am, but there are a number of people ahead of me who have incredibly impressive teams and seem to know what they are doing. I'll elaborate this weekend.
