	lol yeah i just missed you is all. lol. It was the rule at the time, so yeah yeah yeah. But you must agree that it's a stupid rule that should have never been there anyway

	nut:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 06:51 GMT	9 points
	Bradshaw actually won his first Super Bowl in 1975. January, you know!

	sox_fan1468927:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 06:55 GMT	8 points
	Absolutely it was a stupid rule, I don't know anyone that would deny that.

	AdmiralMaxtreme:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 11:40 GMT	-1 points
	This would be a good quiz if it weren't for the comments in the answers.

	RCHPfan96:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 13:08 GMT	4 points
	I've lost all respect for yuo, godpaul, after seeing the comment next to the "tuck rule" answer.

	godpaul25:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 13:17 GMT	-1 points
	Yeah sorry about Bradshaw thing, websites always screw that up. Had to manually count from '67 to see if you were right. lol. fixed

	godpaul25:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 13:22 GMT	-1 points
	RCHPfan96: Wow, all respect? lol. I put comments in there like that to specifically mess with soxfan90210, we go way back lol. And if you've followed my quizzes for any extended period of time, you'd see i pick on boston a lot, all out of good fun. It's nothing personal

	sox_fan1468927:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 16:53 GMT	3 points
	Alright the soxfan90210 made me crack a smile, got to admit.

	godpaul28:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 17:36 GMT	1 point
	lol. what's up man?

	kypzethdurron:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 18:05 GMT	-4 points
	Great idea, poorly executed.

	godpaul28:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 18:14 GMT	1 point
	can you tell me why it's poorly executed?

	sox_fan1468927:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 19:18 GMT	6 points
	Not much stacey, just getting ready for baseball season, 19 days, 4 hours, and 54 minutes until opening day...

	godpaul28:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 19:39 GMT	1 point
	Yeah I'm taking my first crack at fantasy baseball this season, sharing a team with my Bostonian friend. I'm pumped. Already named our team the Chowda Heads, lol. Going to be good times. Maybe I'll start agreeing with you more often. Doubt it. lol.

	sox_fan1468927:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 19:48 GMT	3 points
	Well that wouldn't be as fun. Did you have your draft yet? How many guys in the league?

	godpaul28:	Mar 17th, 2010 at 00:23 GMT	4 points
	ten team league, draft is this sunday. Have the 5 pick. Have to draft RF, CF, and LF seperately. So eyeing Kemp or Braun. Kemp because he qualified at RF and CF. Braun is a monster though. Advice?

	nysports24:	Mar 17th, 2010 at 00:49 GMT	-2 points
	basically impossible to get exact year for most

	godpaul28:	Mar 17th, 2010 at 01:13 GMT	3 points
	really? The hockey one I'll give you. Everything else you should be able to put within a year or two i'd think

	sox_fan1468927:	Mar 17th, 2010 at 02:44 GMT	4 points
	Take 2B, SS, 3B, and C within your first four rounds. Outfielders, first baseman, and pitchers are easier to come by. If you don't get a top guy in these positions there will be a much bigger drop off than if you don't get a top outfielder or first baseman. That is why I think HanRam should go number 1 over Pujols. There are about 11 first baseman that I would love to have on my fantasy team but only about 3 shortstops I would love to have and definitely only 3 catchers (Mauer, McCann, and Martinez).

	godpaul28:	Mar 17th, 2010 at 04:03 GMT	3 points
	Well, SS, C, 3B, and CF were the shortest positions by my count. Arod is not going to fall to me, obviously neither are hanley or pujols, so....who do I take at 5? Top couple of shortstops aren't much difference between the group, Jeter will prob be there on way back don't you think?

	sox_fan1468927:	Mar 17th, 2010 at 04:30 GMT	3 points
	I would take Longoria. The top four should be Pujols, HanRam, A-Rod, and Utley. Try to get Tulo/Mauer/Kinsler one of those three will be there most likely. If you don't get Mauer get Martinez or McCann in the third round. Your top three picks could most likely be Longoria, Kinsler, Martinez, but you will probably miss out on Jeter. If you do miss Jeter, don't bother taking a SS in round 4, go for a CF unless you want to take a risk and draft Zobrist but no chance he repeats last year's performance.
