I saw Tenacious D in Austin forever ago and the opening band was in drag and only did Diamond covers. They were called The Diamond Smugglers.

Look up how many songs he's written - you'll be surprised.

Nah, he's cool, I'm just surprised that you'd be a huge fan given our music conversations

I like all kinds of music. I need really loud music to work. I've been working all the time for the past couple years. Hence, a limited selection.

Plus, I always crack up at Saving Silverman.

From a fantasy pespective, I cut Sabathia and kept Okajima, so it was pitching win for me (although I hated the BB to Granderson). Ellsbury, OTOH, WTF?

If you must do Sweet Caroline, that's the way to do it. One verse and 2 choruses by the man, and out.

I didn't know the Rangers were converting C.J. Wilson into a starter. He did really well this spring.

I picked up Bard and Robertson for the start, no ks, but nice era going into the week. My opponent was starting Sabathia so that was nice

I would be that opponent. I didn't know the first day was part of the first week (i.e. 8 day week), but it wouldn't have changed what I did with Sabathia anyway. Haha, I was thinking last night "good thing tonight doesn't count" as I was watching the game.... fail.

It is an AL only 12 team auction league with unlimited keepers. I had CC at $32 and Okajima at $1. I needed the dirt cheap middle reliever to fill a roster slot. I need 3 - 4 starters this auction. I could not keep Sabathia and a full price closer (jenks at $26, and I have Thornton). There is a lot more starting pitching in the draft this year than closers. There are 5 teams looking for closers and really only 3 available (Valverde, Soriano, and Gonzalez) plus Wood.
