January 30, 200719 yr To the best of my knowledge the Yahoo leagues will be opening soon, so I'd like to get started on this stuff so I know what players are back and who I need to replace. Here's the deal: 1) First off, PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME ABOUT OPEN SPOTS. If we have any openings, I will deal with that when the situation arises. Priority will go to veteran players/posters, and probably on an invitation-only basis. If there is enough interest, I am not opposed to starting another keeper league, though I will still try to make sure that there is a veteran presence for an interesting league that I am fairly confident will keep going for a while. For players in the league, please let me know if you plan on playing again as soon as possible. Eventually I'll try to track down the people who haven't responded, but I'd like to be a pain in the ass as little as possible. 2) It's the same setup as last year: standard 5x5 12-team Head2Head league. 3) You get to keep 5 players: 2 position players, 2 pitchers, and one wildcard. I would like to have everyone's keepers in a week before the draft, once that time is set (I will be aiming for a mid to late March draft probably on a weeknight to avoid NCAA tournament conflicts ). If you forgot who you have, just PM me or post in this thread, I have all of the rosters from last year. 4) Once the lists are in, I'll put together a complete keeper list. Please exclude all players kept by other teams, I'd like to minimize issues that I have to deal with after the draft. Put your keepers as your top 5 players, that way even if you miss the draft it will auto-select them. The "real" draft will start with round 6. Final Standings from last year (also the draft order from bottom to top): 1) Chimpy 2) Alawicious (Jas' friend) 3) Zoom 4) Heads 5) Asshat 6) Bullard 7) DBaho 8) Steff 9) Gage 10) Qwerty 11) Danman 12) Kap Here's hoping for an interesting and enjoyable season!

February 16, 200719 yr Author QUOTE(kapkomet @ Feb 15, 2007 -> 04:52 PM) Where are we on this? There are two people I'm still waiting to hear from, so our roster is entirely set yet. Once it is, I'll set up the league and get things going.
February 23, 200719 yr Author Alright, even though I haven't finalized the roster yet, I setup the league. Here's the info: Yahoo ID- 107837 password- sox Draft is currently set for Tuesday March 13th at 9:30 PM central. This time is negotiable, but my options were somewhat limited. I'd appreciate it if you either kept the team names the same as last year or used one that I can easily figure out... Let's get going on this. Good luck and have fun!

February 25, 200719 yr I'm in. Any night time draft should be good for me as long as it's not late Sunday afternoon/early evening. I possibly might have a little bit of problem with early evening Friday and Saturday drafts if I am working the FSU baseball games.
February 26, 200719 yr Author Hey guys, Yahoo just opened up a whole bunch of time slots, so I can get basically any draft time we want. I'd appreciate some feedback on when you guys can make it. Normally I like to shoot for 8-9 PM central on a weeknight, and I dislike weekends during the day. Also, I'm going to be at Spring Training from the 6th to the 11th, so it's not going to happen then. Also, I have multiple drafts to worry about (4 on Soxtalk ), so I'd like to avoid having 2 on the same night. Other than that, I'm pretty open. Edited February 26, 200719 yr by ZoomSlowik
