9/3 I had Nicole Ohlde, but switched to Kelly Miller. I know the conventional wisdom says take the post when they play Phoenix. I just don't think Ohlde is a scoring threat. If I had Anosike left in my pool, I'd take her, for sure. We'll see. |
You're not the only one, I really am hesistating to stay with my Ohlde pick, but I thought it's about time she has a good game. The fact that Tangela's out should only help her.

After making up very little ground last week, I started this week off horribly. I'm going with Pringle and rookie points tonight.

Yeah Yo had a good game for me!
Tonight, I have one of your very own, brave!
Anyone know where I can find an injury report that is updated daily just to make sure I don't waste any picks?

Filled out my dance card for the rest of the week--not much firepower left. Pringle tonight, then Price, Carson, Yo, and Svet.

Finally a move that paid off! And Anosike: 14 pts + 15 reb + 3 ast, = 64 points! Dang it!
9/4 Big Syl

I had Penicheiro, but her numbers have been awful since the break so I switched to Ruth Riley.

Wonderful, Melvin makes it three out of four picks this weak that resulted in single-digit PRA. -_-
Let's hope Laura Harper breaks that streak tomorrow.

I'd offer you some of the points Big Syl got me, but, um, I had Anna DeForge on Monday and Nicole Ohlde on Wednesday, so I kinda need to make up ground. Stupid Lynx.

Haha... I had Anna Deforge monday, Nicole Ohlde wednesday, AND Chasity Melvin yesterday (only 8 points).
What a disaster of a week. Tan White (Tuesday) and Laura Harper (today) tried their best to salvage it somewhat...
Camille Little tomorrow.

WTF happened? She scored 16 last time out (against Detroit) and she doesn't play tonight (against Atlanta)? And I was having a decent week up to tonight. I hate this game!
9/6 Braxton and 9/7 Kraayveld
So, does Kraayveld get to sit out their next game, since she scored 18, 5 and 2 tonight?
Oh, and thanks for the sympathy, Queenie! I'd take the points, but big Syl did me okay earlier in the week. Stupid game!

I'm sticking with Kraayevelde for 9/7.
If I'd bothered to read the game reports, I might have discovered that Christon was injured for Friday's game. C'est la vie.

The 3 rookie picks last week helped me out a good deal. I have hardly anyone left. Desouza tonight.

So far, so good this week- lightning struck and TSB gave me 22 on a night most had DeSouza, then Tasha Humphrey had a night-high 52. Thursday I'm rolling with Alexis Hornbuckle, Friday is my DeSouza night, Saturday I switched to Abrosimova from Gardin, and I finish the week with Camille Little. I'm sitting in 109th, my best fantasy placement ever.
Brave, speaking fan to fan, I would lay off Leilani (if, of course, it's not too late already and that wasn't your 9/9 pick). Even with the rookie doubling, you can do better. Do you still have the other two baby Libs in your arsenal? Essence and Erlana are more likely to provide you with much of anything.

Yeah, I haven't completely decided whether to change that pick. I actually had Leilani today but switched to Shannon Johnson, and tomorrow to Leilani, but I probably will end up switching her. I don't know who yet, though.

I finish out with Pringle 9/12, Harper 9/13, and Perkins 9/14.
Wonder how they will handle the Monarchs-Comets game then. Wouldn't they count those scores for Friday, no matter when it's played? Seems like this has happened before, but I can't remember the circumstances or how it was handled. Thoughts and prayers to our Houston contingent.
