My new method for picking starters

I think I did this once or twice last year, and it worked out. I did it earlier this year and he was right, so, I'll try the method again. It is just as good as flipping a coin or reading responses from the Advice Forum :D

 

I asked my soon to be three year old son the following questions on my two leagues:

 

"Schaub or Hasselback".....he responded "Hasselbeck"

"Warner or Schaub"......he responded "Schaub"

"Smith or Hightower"......he responded "Smith (Meaning Kevin Smith)

"Hightower or Thomas"....he responded "Thomas" (Meaning Pierre Thomas)

"Walter or Knox".......he responded "Knox"

 

 

Now, I'll wait and see if I need to buy him an ice cream cone or throw away all of his toys. :wacko:

Make sure you say the name that you want to start as the last choice. Except for Hightower isn't as easy to say as Smith. :wacko::D

 

He actually mixed up taking the 1st or 2nd choice. You have a point on Hightower, but, Hasselbeck is much tougher than Schaub. Of course, what he said sounded closer to "Haff-ole-back"

Typically, a child will repeat the last name he hears. Your's did it 4 out of 5 times. Continue to give him the choice but give him "your" choice last, that way you will feel convinced that you were right from the start. Good luck with that. The way my seasons going I might be asking for his help soon too.

Actually, he said the 2nd one 3 ouf of 5 times. We'll see how it goes, as these were all decisions that I was completely on the fence with. I've been getting a lot of those wrong this year, so, I'll see how the little guy does.

Ask him the following and the odds are 3 in 5 he answers correctly:

 

"In Daddy's fantasy football game today, is he going to win or lose?"

There was a 99.99999% chance that you would both post in this thread.

 

Like a moth to a flame.......

 

:wacko: about the same odds I projected that you'd find something else to post about to draw attention to yourself today since the Steelers don't play until tomorrow night!
