Bahku - Samardo Samuels, Cleveland Cavaliers: 7.7
MattG12 - Tyler Hansbrough, Indiana Pacers: 11.0
I give up on this game until the playoffs.
Why?
You're only two wins from the lead, for Pete's sake,
Answer:
- I don't think I've won in at least 2 weeks
- Bahku and BFM have probably compiled about 9 wins between them in that time and it seems like every time one of them comes in first the other one comes in second
- I've realized it's pointless trying to make my pick at midnight because I never get mine in first and every time I do it says I posted it at 11:59:59
- Tonight I posted at 12:26 and I was still the 4th person to post... probably would have been the same had I posted at midnight
- Lastly, and I hate to call attention to it because I'm friends with them, but I'm in a bad mood... but it's kind of tough when Bahku picks for himself and BFM at the same time every night and always picks the two best available players. This hurts everybody elses chances of ever getting a top 1 or 2 pick because Bahku's timing is synched better than anybody else on this blog. Sorry guys... that's just been frustrating me lately, especially when BFM is still roaming the blog well after midnight... it's not like he can't make his own picks. Oh well... I haven't seen any rules against it so do what you've gotta do.
Hmmmm, I'm sorry, Matt, but I think that's kind of silly. When I get up at around 6 am there are always four to five picks (at least) that have been made. It's just the nature of the game. I do find it a bit irritating that people will try to get their pick in precisely at midnight EST but I can't really blame them. Also, saying you can't ever win (well, not your exact words but you get the point) is silly, too. Look at me, I've played around 145 times and I've only got four (1, 2, 3, 4) wins. I think I haven't won in, what, four months or so?! Yet I keep playing. I'm sure it has to do with not being able to pick in the top five of players who are doing well at the moment but what can I do? Plus, sometimes I've picked players that no one else would pick because I was tired of seeing the same names come up all the time. So, to sum it up, just keep picking, you never know what will happen. Yes, we all want to win but it's supposed to be fun. Also, when the playoffs come around, it won't matter a tiny bit who got the most RS wins. Finally, I know Bahku offers to pick for people, so you could just ask him to do so. It's not an exclusive thing to bfm.
