What the hell - 90 points for Richards! Dallas isn\'t an offense wasteland anymore.

45 comments in two hours. Nice!

Crazynuck - you\'re the winner: 79 points for Richards.
Never been a fan of him, but my formulas don\'t have a lot of bias.

Ribeiro 81 points

[bluejays]

Dallas PP1.
Morrow (71) -Ribeiro (79) - Lehtonen (54)
Zubov (61 in 71GP) - Richards (73)

Turco increases his SO total from last year to 6-8.

Who gets time on PP2?

I was 1 point off...not too shabby.

Those predictions sound about right. I\'m sure certain people will be saying no way Richards gets that close to Ribiero. But the truth is that Ribeiro can\'t even tie Richards\' skates.

We\'re all excited but this guide could take as long as it wants because we all know it will be the best. I do want it now though lol.

I really can\'t wait, I love having this info!

Perfect, just in time for some bed time reading, i\'m sure the wife will understand:silly:

[bluejays]

I wonder whose yearbook of the main ones (Forecaster, Score, THN, Dobber, etc) is the most precise???

Meaning if you measured the point difference from all mags on each particular player (Top 500 say), who would be closest!

My bet is Dobber, but would that ever be alot of work!

[playmaker26]

I don\'t think it\'s even close. Dobber easily.

Can you buy Score and Forecaster if you\'re in the US?

Probably not that difficult if you just did a sampling to give you a comparative - say 25 players.

Oops meant to quote bluejays - sorry

You can order it online, yes.

The points difference between mags - I\'m usually one of the best in some categories (i.e. within 5 points, 10 points, or within 20 points, etc), but I really want to stress the other things the guide brings you - sleeper picks and how certain I am that they will reach their sleeper projection, prospects and their % chance of making the team, etc etc.

I mean - if my predictions are an average of 7 points off of this group of players, and THN\'s predictions are an average of 7.5 points off of the same group...is that going to win you the pool? Of course not - it\'s the other features that give you that edge. That\'s my point. And BTW - that\'s how close these predictions are to each other between mags. I\'ve looked at it before.

Hopefully another argument is not coming about Richards haha.

round 3 ding ding :laugh:

I say Dobber predicts 79pts but he will put up 74pts.
There is now way Richards does better than Ribeiro\'s 83 pts last season.

Hey Nuck - this is only about our guess on Dobber\'s prediction for Richards - not what we think will actually happen.

Shoeless sorry to post more than the predictions.
There has been an ongoing debate with playmaker and myself about Ribeiro. I\'ll start a new post next time

Glad to see my prediction was dead on.

[Shoeless]

I was being silly about the prediction thing with Richards - I got tagged with moving Ollie J. for him based on the 06/07 guide.

Out of curiousity - who is touting Ribs between the two of you?

Oops meant Richards.

I think Richards is a 65-75 pt guy who may have one or two 80 pt seasons while playmaker is saying that richards is a consistent 80+ guy.
