Subject: GLG Guru 2 Owner tanking lineup

Kirk,

Please look at Knackers Wackers lineup.  He started deAngelo Williams (rated #37 by the Guru this week) over Portis rated #9 this week.  Also Maroney (ranked #12) is a much better start the DeAngelo Williams.  Additionally, Calvin Johnson was ranked #33 and Jacoby Jones #57.  Knackers is trying to get a higher draft pick.

"Kirk brought to my attention that an owner thought I was tanking my lineup in order to get a higher draft pick. I would like to say that I don't play like that and if anyone looks at my efficiency rating they would see a high 89.1%.
Further I do not own Clinton Portis or Maroney and as far as the Guru Ratings are concerned I use them as a guidline and make my own decisions. Unfortunetly my poor record is justified :-( Please anyone thinking I did this just take a look at the scoring of starters and backups and you will see that I didn't have much choice but to start the players I did. I'm sure if everyone goes through everyone elses live scoring details you will see higher ranked guru rated players being benched in place of other players that are lower ranked. I think that the complaining team may in fact be the one tanking his lineup and is getting upset that my team just stinks this year :-).
