I really hate that fantasy shit. TBL – you may want to set up a daily post for fantasy stuff the way you do for hockey and basketball because it seems to leak in and hijack threads.

He deserved a T for arguing continuously about the call. He then got his 2nd T for coming 20 feet on to the floor while there was not a time out(this is a "T" 100 times out of 100). Why do some fans think coaches should get a pass in the tourney?Officials do let coaches slide some during tournaments, there was no question with Johnson. And Wright wanted that "T" to make his point, it worked out well for him.Officiating is so subjective for fans, it will never be perfect to anyone. Officials do make mistakes. We live with mistakes. You can't play basketball(or any sport) without officials and they will always be human.(at least while we're on this earth). Score points, play defense, and win your games so they aren't close, and you're fans won't have to blame it on the refs.--oh wait, they always will. And thats why out of the 400 or so regular commenters on TBL, only two of us are officials. Because we choose to have a job where we are "wrong" in the eyes of half of the fans on every call.

Your OF is already pretty good and Cabrera is a big downgrade from Roberts. I wouldn’t do it unless you can find a better replacement for Roberts.
