Answer by crazydave
If I had to guess, I would say about 40 per season.

81 road games, average 3 games per series, so they would have to make 27 trips to the visiting stadiums, and since they usually go on the road for a few series at a time, the next flight would be to the next stadium, and not a return trip home.

Q&A: I need to know your opinion on pitching?

Posted on January 27, 2012 by admin

Question by Freedom 12′: I need to know your opinion on pitching?
In MLB Fantasy I want to pick up Jon Rauch from free agency but am unsure of who to drop, the options I have to drop are: Billy Wagner, Jason Frasor, C.J. Wilson, and Sean Marshall.

Here is how the stats fall:

Jon Rauch 3 IP 1 ER 3 K 3.00 ERA 1.33 WHIP 3 SAVES
Billy Wagner 3 IP 2 ER 6 K 6.00 ERA 1.00 WHIP 1 SAVE
Jason Frasor 2.1 IP 2 ER 5 K 7.71 ERA 3.00 WHIP 2 SAVE
C.J. Wilson 7.0 IP 0 ER 9 K 0.00 ERA 1.00 WHIP 0 SAVES
Sean Marshall 4.1 IP 0 ER 7 K 0.00 ERA 0.00 WHIP 0 SAVES

I’m looking for a reliable relief pitcher who will put up good K’s ERA’s WHIP’s and SAVES Who do you think would be best to get rid of to make room for Jon Rauch? Why do you think this would be the best player to remove from my team?

Thanks for all the help.

I’d drop Marshall. Lou is going to use him as a set-up guy for Marmol soon. The Cubbies are having middle relief problems and Marshall will live there. He won’t give you enough wins or saves to keep. Easy choice.

Looking for people to join a sports forum, even moderators?

Posted on January 25, 2012 by admin

Question by Jesse S: Looking for people to join a sports forum, even moderators?
This is a new all-around sports forum. All sports will be discussed, basketball, football, baseball, college, etc.

I am currently looking for people that would like to be moderators, representing your state.

Example: If you are from Florida, you could be the Florida moderator. You will have control of all the Florida teams of your choosing. But don’t get me wrong, you can post anywhere you want! You want to talk about something outside of Florida, feel free.

Currently the administrator has Minnesota, and I haven’t decided yet. So come in and make what hopes to be, a fun sports-talk forum!

If you are interested, you can email me at ssabelson@gmail.com or go directly to the site and join up http://minnesotatwolves.createforum.net/

Can someone tell me why people INSIST that the Lions are still bad?

Posted on January 25, 2012 by admin

Question by Motown Born: Can someone tell me why people INSIST that the Lions are still bad?
6th most sacks in the NFL last season without the most dominant DT in college football..
3rd best WR
Louis Delmas ranked by NFL.com and ESPN has a Top Safety in this league
Stephen Tulloch – 2nd leading tackling
DeAndre Levy – Lead the linebacker corps last year. Game winning pick 6, absolute beast
Matt Stafford – He may not be healthy but that doesn’t mean the Lions are BAD. He threw 6 TD’s and 1 INT last season in 3 games and if he’s healthy why cant he do the same?
D-Line – Easily top 5 in the league
Secondary – 15th best secondary last year, not even close the worst even with Delmas having a groin injury, and without Eric Wright who is extremely talented.
Running backs – Two very promising RB’s that compliment eachother PERFECTLY
O-line – 5th best at protecting the QB

Yet I hear people saying they will go 5-11 at BEST? This team went 6-10 with a much HARDER schedule. Way harder than the Bears schedule..not trying to call out the Bears by any means. This was done with Jahvid Best having turf toe after week 5, without Stafford, Delmas and Levy having groin injuries, KVB out for the last 4 games, no Fairley, no Young, no Leshoure, no Stephen Tulloch (best MLB in free agency)

Best answer:

Answer by Connor B
i agree this year they look really good..but since the last year they like the Texans who on paper it looks like a pretty decent but every year they fail..watch out for Nick Fairley everybody!

What college football team should I cheer for?

Posted on January 24, 2012 by admin

Question by burgz: What college football team should I cheer for?
So I just recently have gotten into football and absolutely love the game. I am a fan of the Seahawks in the NFL and the Riders in the CFL. Now I need a team to cheer for on Saturdays. Which team should I cheer for in College ball?

Best answer:

Answer by jus_some_dude
None. If you love the game of football, you will stay away from the NCAA and the BCS until a playoff format is established. Until then, NCAA Football will continue to play games on an unlevel playing field, slapping the face of football fans everywhere.

Q&A: Has any one else noticed a problem with the Yahoo Sports Pro Pick ‘Em tie breaker system?

Posted on January 21, 2012 by admin

Question by Digital B: Has any one else noticed a problem with the Yahoo Sports Pro Pick ‘Em tie breaker system?
Yahoo Sports Pro Pick ‘Em tie breaker system is flawed. It does not work correctly. The wrong winner is being picked in a league I am in. I’ve verified that a winner was shown who had 44 total points on the Monday night game. I had 45 total points. Another person had 52.

The total points for Monday night was 49, yet the winner was the person with 44 points.

Best answer:

Answer by Justin
it must be whoever is closest without going over is the winner… just a thought. not sure.
