p0rk burn: verb. To screw yourself royally as a result of "brilliant" managing. See illustration.

"I sure p0rk burned myself last night when Uggla and Murphy hit those grand slams."

Ouch, that hurts.

"My eyes, my eyes"

Please don't subject me to that bench anymore p0rk. May be a precursor of things to come.

oh but it gets worse . . . check the edit

oh my, another murphy homerun

you know, posada better do something nuts too, i have him in my line up just make sure he does the damage after duchscherer is done

Posada is definitely messing up the feng shui of that image. I left him in there because thats my entire offensive bench, felt like cheating to take him out.

I feel your pain. In the last week, I have left on the bench:
Hawpe: 2-run HR
Hawpe: Grand slam
Posada: 2-4 incl a HR
Doumit: 2 HR game yesterday.

Pork burned indeed.

Steve-d perhaps?

Wow, that's awful.

Who did you play instead of them?

I think I probably had Bruce in the Util spot for Hawpe both times. For the first home run he hit off the diabled list, I was away from a computer and didn't actually know he had been activated, so didn't feel so bad about that. As for his grand slam, I think I mentioned, Grey, that I put him in my line up then swapped him out for Bruce just before game time because I was in need of steals. Turns out it wouldn't have made any differnce to my match-up as I ended up winning HRs and RBIs anyway.
When Posada was benched I started Doumit and then vice versa yesterday.
Yesterday's sparkling piece of decision-making could yet bite me on the arse as my opponent this week has Corey Hart...

I don't want to say who I had instead of Uggla and Murphy, you'll make fun of me.

Lets just say Anal Fissures were involved. I was hoping for a steal. Murphy was sitting in lieu of Markakis/Godzilla/Wells. I'll give you this round, Rudy Gamble, but this battle is far from over.

Ha. That's just painful seeing stats accumulate on your bench. For a while, I refused to even carry hitters on my bench to avoid that situation.

We can't be adding site members' names (Grey and I) included into the glossary but this is definitely a situation that warrants a nickname.

How about....

Sonavabench! - Exclamation when one sees that a player on their bench has had a monster day. Can also be used as a noun or adjective. "David Murphy just hit 2 HR but I didn't start him today - sonavabench!" "It doesn't matter what I do - my team is a spiteful sonavabench". "Shoot me now - my fantasy team just had a killer sonavabench day."
