waivers starts off being the reverse of the draft order, i.e. the 20th pick in the draft gets first waiver preference, 1st pick in the draft is 20th preference

I get the feeling I may wish I'd used the autopick...

The GAA can't pay players.

The man makes a good point

anyone else think that this type of beating is awaiting Duddy when he steps up to the big time? Or do I underestimate the man hugely?

I wish he'd play Benayoun and Mascherano in the Premiership, he's killing my fantasy team

i think that was me

Aye, and history is the war of independence, skip straight to WWII and the last 50 odd years. They were stupefied when I explained that Newgrange is over 5000 years old and 500 years older than the pyramids...

Downredblack- Troy is a belter- always loved it- actually have the remixed version on the ipod- hadnt seen that one live before.

Heard this one recently and its really stuck n my head, breathe 2am by anna nalick

So the last week in the regular season starts today. Playoff spots are up for grabs.
Res Dubs and Father Joes Dynamos have pretty much been 1-2 for the last 10 weeks and have both their payoff spots already clinched. As a good indicator of form the Dubs spanked the dynamos last week 8-3.
There are 7 teams in contention for the next 4 spots:
crossmaglen Hitmen
helmets
Dodgers
Hoya Now
AZ Diamondbacks
Big Apple Orchards
Ardboe Blue Jays
as luck would have it there are a couple of them playing this week in what can be viewed as playoffs. AZ takes on Howya Now and must win convincingly to get through, and its an uphill battle, a couple of lineup changes may help though as hes only scoring 8 of his 9 players with a strong bench. Pitching should favour Howya, but A-rod and Suzuki are a really strong batting combo, and both on form.

Helmets take on the Blue Jays, Ordonez and Big Papi are on top of their game and anything is possible here offensively for the Blue Jays,  the helmets had a freakishly good week last week but that has been a one off recently despite a good start to the season. Pitching wise the Helmets look to have the edge in relief, but starters like brandon Webb, last weeks highest ranked players means that the BJs look to have an easy run.

Dodgers take on the isotopes and should be looking at a convincing win. texeira and Abreu are flying and Carlos Guillen's bad day is better than most players good ones. The dodgers pitching has been their weakness all season. The isotopes havent really done much, and their highest rank player for the season Ryan Howard is languishing on the bench. Cano Alou and Matthews jr ar enot on hot runs of form at the vital times. Again selections issues for the isotopes as their strongest starter Beckett is a bench warmer and one of their spots lies empty.

Hitmen play the Orchards in an all Armagh managerial contest. The cross boys are flying and the Orchards need a massive win to make the play offs.
Fielder Cabrera, Guerrero and Jermaine Dye are putting the numbers up, And even with such a good line up you'd question the benching of Carlos Lee. Solid pitching has been vital for the Cross men to back up their big bats and Saito and Okaima have been solid closers, the starters have been slowly but surely racking up the wins For the orchards posada has been brilliant but their scores eflect that hideki matsui and Jose guillen arent ecoring whilst benched. Same on the pitching side since Hughes' return he and clemence have been pitching well, but not scoring from the bench. Cross should take this handily and could probably lose by 7/8 and still make the playoffs.

So thats how it stands, next Monday I'll do a recap and a look forward to the playoffs, if I make them other wise feck the lot of ye!

Nifan- Boo Hoo :-)

was down in your place on Friday. You over again soon?

I have difficulty watching the office sometimes- I find myself squirming with embarrassment at some of the lines they come out with. But that was unbelievable hard watching.

one question why was it was so much easier with the sound off ?
