Is there anything worse in the entire world than missing your fantasy draft? I am legitimately furious. While I'm in the process of losing my phone amongst the largest assembled crowd of Massholes in the entire state of Massachusetts (The Southie Parade obviously), my league is drafting MLB fantasy for this year. Just such a heartbreaker.
Although I end up with Albert Pujols, does it really matter when my third basemen is Mark Reynolds, who will strike out 250 times this year? Or when my best starting pitcher is Shaun Marcum? Wow. I know a lot about baseball but I have pitchers I've never heard of. Just one of those things that really hurts. Nothing hurts more than having zero Red Sox on my team, when normally I strictly draft Red Sox and Braves. Worse than that is having a Yankees' player on my team. Not just any Yankees player, Derek Jeter: gut wrenching. I'm not one of those fantasy guys who drafts best available players in order to win the league, I draft guys I like on my teams so that I never have the awkward situation of ever hoping Derek Jeter gets a hit. I'm going to keep him on my team and hope he goes 0/8 million this year.
Here's to hoping people will actually trade, and hoping that I'm still interested after April 1st...
You really lose your phone?
