Looking for teams for a competive yahoo baseball league...
 
First off, i know there is a topic on fantasy baseball already, but i want to start my own competitive league, seeing that the leagues that are being formed in the other thread are for people who were in the league last year. Here's the criteria i want from each team: (1) I want team manager's who knows baseball. (2) I want team manager's to be competitive all year long, i don't want a team to give up when they are losing. (3) I want it to be serious but fun. That's it. I'm tired of being in competitive leagues were you get stuck in a yahoo league were only a few people try to win, there is no fun in that. I would like twelve teams (11 other than me). So let me know who is interested and why you would like to be in this league. When we get enough teams and yahoo is open for registration, i will post the league id number and password. Thanks.

Why didnt you just post this in the baseball thread?

We were talking about FOUR different leagues.

Simple, i didn't want to get thrown into just any league. I tried to get into the main competitive league, and was told that i couldn't get in because it was reserved for teams that were in it last year. I understand and respect that. I want to run my own league were all teams stay interested all year long. You're welcome to join if you'd like. With your yahoo id, you can join up to four teams. Sorry if you think i should've posted this in the other thread, but with the possibility of four leagues being formed in that thread, i didn't want it to be to confusing to figure out who is in what league.

:lol: good one. If you want in that's fine, but the computer picks the draft order.

YOUR Hero 02-12-2004 10:25 PM

I'd say my interest level is @ 75%. I ned to see where I fit in with regards to here and perhaps @ Rajah. I'll keep you posted.

As soon as yahoo opens registration, i will set up a league and let you know the info.

Sensei Of Mattitude 02-14-2004 12:49 PM

Hey Excellence, I want in too.

Excellance of Execution 02-17-2004 08:31 PM

Alright, the league is set up. The League # is 5036. The league name is Field of Dreams and the password is Brethart. To those of you who are interested check it out and join, just let me know who you are (your tpww.net user name) just so i know who is in. I am the A + C Bombers. It will be a 12 team league, so go sign up, and remember to pre-rank your players. As soon as everyone is signed up i'm going to have yahoo do our draft. Good Luck to those who sign up, i'm looking forward to a fun year.

Supreme Olajuwon 02-17-2004 08:48 PM

EOE I'm in. I'm signing up as the New Ro Perfectos

Loose Cannon 02-17-2004 09:07 PM

It won't let me join, it's saying the password is invalid

EDIT: The password is brethart not Brethart

Yeah, i know. It would have been way to difficult to do a live draft. I mean trying to get 12 teams in different time zones, countries and stuff to try and be on the computer at the same time would be as difficult as getting HHH to job to someone like Beniot one on one for the title lol.

Crimson 02-17-2004 09:41 PM

Not really. For the most part mostly everyone shows up, and if somebody didn't they can just pre rank their players. Not that hard a monkey could do it. So I dont think Ima join this one .

DaveWadding 02-17-2004 10:39 PM

You don't need a live draft to fuel smack talk you f*cking little chicken a** p*ssy. Your just afraid of a little competition and getting whooped in this league. :lol:

YOUR Hero 02-18-2004 05:02 PM

Set it up as a live draft, you still have time. Then those that can't make it, just pre-draft. simple.

Um, i was teasing you kid. Did you not see the smiley face or sense the humor in what i said? Anyways, it is now a live draft, so your welcome to join if you wish.

9:30 on a Saturday night? come on

[QUOTE=Supreme]9:30 on a Saturday night? come on[/QUOTE
I changed the draft time to 1:30 p.m. eastern time on Sunday February 29th. I will not change it again. I took the first time available that looked conveniant and didn't realize it was going to be a problem. Besides, look at your post count-like you really go and do anything on saturday night :roll:

I was merely trying to kid around. I was kidding with you because you made a comment about smacktalking. Isn't the smiley gremlin supposed to mean your kidding, laughing, joking? Jeez, loosing up, i'm not trying to be an asshole or insult anybody. That's not the way i am. Besides, when you smack talk with people in your league, you shouldn't take it personally, should you?

DaveWadding 02-18-2004 10:00 PM

We need 4 more teams. So if your interested please sign up. The draft is this weekend. Thanks.

Isn't H/AB the same as Avg?

YOUR Hero 02-28-2004 05:22 PM

OK I joined up. There are only 10 teams and the draft is tommorow. Which is ok I suppose.. or are you still looking for 2 more guys? I can get 1 more for sure if you like.

If you can get that one person to join, that would be great. I have someone else i'm trying to get in, so that would be 12. If i can't get this other person in, then i will just try and get someone from the outside to join.

YOUR Hero 02-29-2004 03:56 PM

I've made some trade offers, to guys I think need what I'm offering.

I rejected it Your Hero. I don't want to lose Schilling and I already have two good closers.

YOUR Hero 02-29-2004 04:55 PM

Well don't be afraid to counter offer. I can only start by suggesting what I think you might need.

BlackRavyyn 02-29-2004 05:43 PM

<font color=seablue><i>Well interesting draft. I got Gagne and Smoltz so I think my RP is definitely covered for the season :lol: Still need some quality starters and I do have an extra RP with some 40 saves, so whatever.

Also if there's others looking for some trades - hook it up :y: I'll take a look at Hero's team and see what he got a hold of...:shifty:</i></font>

Wish i could just veto it, but it has to be voted against by a certain number of other teams. The Commish doesn't have all that power.

YOUR Hero 02-29-2004 06:34 PM

There should be a veto option.

Anyway, I voted against it for Russ' sake.

Loose Cannon 02-29-2004 06:38 PM

I'll give you him back if it goes through so it doesn't become an issue.

There isn't a veto option. When i set up the league, i put it to be a league vote, so nobody would say i vetoed a trade because it was in my best interest or anything like that. I did vote against it though.

YOUR Hero 02-29-2004 06:49 PM

what does it take to get it cancelled? How many votes?

It would take something special for me to trade Vlad.

What about what I originally proposed CANADIAN?

BlackRavyyn 02-29-2004 08:22 PM

Hey Hero, I'm taking off for the night but if you're in the trading mood...:D

Let me know if you want anything from the team. All I can think of is I need some SP and some OF work but I only have to offer is some RP...so see what you need :y:

YOUR Hero 02-29-2004 09:05 PM

Thank you CANADIAN. I think this deal makes you very tough to beat in S/b's and me (hopefully) tough to beat in Wins.

CANADIAN 02-29-2004 09:08 PM

I sent you back for the original deal.. But know Im wondering if I should have went for your guy with 52 steals.

Crimson 02-29-2004 09:10 PM

I wonder why I couldnt log in for the draft stupid computer. My team kinda sucks I think, so Im open to anything. I think I need pitching , relief pitching, and a catcher. And I don't really follow baseball so feel free to offer the lobsided trades :y: :shifty:

Yeah I'm kinda surprised you didn't. If you like, because I'm happy to have Buerle, I'll swap with you those two guys, once these go through.

CANADIAN 02-29-2004 09:17 PM

I did it for the avg, because I forgot how the scoring went... So if you would I would love your swap idea.

CANADIAN 02-29-2004 09:32 PM

Thanks. So the scoring goes 1 point for HR, 1 point for R, 1 point for AVG etc; Hero do you want Piazza?

YOUR Hero 02-29-2004 10:13 PM

Piazza interests me, but I don't know what I can offer for him. Make me an offer I suppose.

Each catergory is for 1 point. There are 8 batting, 6 pitching. So each week you play for a possible 14 points against your opponent.

CANADIAN 02-29-2004 11:14 PM

I want Guerrero (Expos fan.. I miss him.)

YOUR Hero 02-29-2004 11:20 PM

Not moving Vlad.

CANADIAN 02-29-2004 11:44 PM

Hey I want Piazza too I need a catcher, Benito Santiago is like 50 yrs old. So I need a catcher and some closers. Hero, if u get Piazza go ahead and give me I-Rod ;).

YOUR Hero 03-02-2004 12:00 AM

I don't think I'm really in the running for Piazza. At least I haven't gotten a new offer from CANADIAN yet.... Did I not make you an offer? I know I put out a bunch of feelers :o

CANADIAN 03-02-2004 12:08 AM

Ill check, send me out another offer well see what happens. Your still trading me back that base stealer right?

CANADIAN 03-02-2004 12:19 AM

YOUR Hero 03-04-2004 11:17 PM

Adder's computer won't handle Java script. Hasn't for 3 years. Don't think he ever figured out why. I know he pre-ranks and hope for the best, LOL

CANADIAN 03-05-2004 12:02 AM

Thats a BIG TRADE.. I will have to think about it a bit.
