Fantasy baseball

Sign up, suckers, so I can take 9th place again! I renewed the league, last years members should have all gotten an e-mail notification.

I'm in. Can't wait for the draft...my favorite thing to do. Finished 4th last year, 1st the year before. Time to get back on top, fools.

[glen a richter]

Welcome back. I'd really like to get it to a 12 team league this year though I'm not sure what that would do to the keeper nature of the league.

[sseagle]

I don't care, I'm back in, but fantasy always = me doing great/shitty and then getting blasted by someone that has never swapped lineups in the playoffs.

[glen a richter]

Will your strategy be to draft every Dominican this year?

[glen a richter]

We're missing a few teams, who hasn't returned? Anyone interested in joining? I can free up some slots for you if we don't have the whole league back by, say, next weekend.

By the way, one change I made was I changed the time for each draft selection to 45 seconds rather than the default 1:30. I'm tired of my fantasy drafts running 2 hours. Granted by participating in 4 fantasy leagues each season I'm indicating that I am limited in actually having a life, but 2 hours of drafting on a weekend night is fairly pathetic. I would like to spend some time with my wife. Plan accordingly when it gets to the later rounds--pick or the computer picks for you.

Harry's Code
2nd
Cardinal Express
3rd
TheYanksOwnOctober
4th
The Emanskis
5th
Adam Dunn Resurgance
6th

I'm Ditka's Disciples but haven't gotten the invite....could the Commish resend?

[glen a richter]

Ditka, pm me your e-mail address. I can't re-send the invite without entering an e-mail and yours is listed as hidden on the commissioner tools page. also if you know anyone else who wants to join, we only have 6 teams signed up so far and I'd really like to get at least 10. Draft in 2 weeks.

[glen a richter]

We're sitting on an odd number of teams right now so I'm thinking of pushing the draft back a week to the 23rd from the 16th. Anyone know anyone who wants to take over a team?

[abc789987]

I'll give it a go again I suppose. Glen, I'll PM you my email.

[glen a richter]

2 more teams, anyone? I'd rather be a 12 team league but 10 will do.

[cardsfan04]

If you need a team, I'll do it again this year. I did a pretty terrible job of keeping up with it last year though, so I've been hesitant to sign up again.

If you have other people or for whatever reason prefer I don't sign up again, I won't be offended.

[glen a richter]

We have 8 right now bro. 8 team fantasy leagues are for amateurs. The more the merrier. PM me your e-mail I'll send out an invite and if you know anyone else, we're drafting Friday night and if we don't have at least 10 by then I'll be pissed. No one gives a shit about occasional periods of inactivity, we're not playing for money.

[dmiles2186]

Draft day! I've got dibs on Hiram Bocachica!

But seriously...we going to get that last team filled?

[glen a richter]

I sent an invite to TheDoc, expected he'd be team #10... we're still waiting, I'm getting a bit cranky because it's taking forever to fill this spot.

[glen a richter]

All teams are finalized, keepers are finalized. We have 10, good to go for tonight.
