Spots reserved for/need to get response from:
Adder

People who are probably SOL cause Adder plays every year:
Splaya
Spikkord


Otherwise just post here. Usually there are 3 or 4 leagues, but what I'm setting up is the running league that we've had going for god knows how long...


and this goes without saying, but I'm taking the title back from CNM's sorry ass this year! :D

I'd like to join again after a year's hiatus from TPWW leagues. Joey RoXer's league had way too many scoring categories.

because RoXer is an asshole.

Why do I get question marks? I demand to know.

Because you weren't in the league last year for some strange reason...

Oh well.

Nigga you know I'm in.

I'll be doing my Roto league again too, if you guys want in.

Oh yeah that's right. I think it was some argument with you and Moonax over semantics and I just didn't feel like dealing with it. Plus I was busy annihilating the roto league. And I mean annihilating. Like it wasn't even that much fun.

But yeah I'll do it this year.

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah count me in for any and all leagues.</font>

Helmsphere has been waiting for this moment.

I'm in.

I was pretty much rookie of the year in Hero's league last year, can I maintain such glory? Probably not, but yeah cool:y:

I would like to play

I will play

wait so The Outlaw is willing to play fantasy baseball but he's too good to post here anymore? What a motherfucker.

I'll join up.

remind me, not too many catergories though right?

I'll set up another league as well. So if guys that want to that don't get in this league can PM me about mine... or post in here.

Will you/can you get a hold of Adder for me? I'm assuming he's in, but I want to make sure...

Here's the cats we used last year, feel free to debate them

Shit, I'll lead off...I say we move one of the RPs back to a P and add another bench spot. Also...holds suck! Yes, let's get that one out of the way...

I'll do a Roto league. This will be the year that I don't get slaughtered by The Krebstars :(

Ass main

I'd be for playing one.

I will do this.

Tranny Lover is down

Dave, I haven't been in contact with Adder very much at all for more than... well anyway sure I'll try, but just a heads up.

Well thanks for at least trying :y:

I already put up the roto league

PM Me if you want in. Of course, last year's managers have priority and have been contacted already via email.

I was never contacted you dick.

Oh I dunno, I had it send emails to everyone when I set up the league. Maybe it didn't work or something

Oh go fuck yourself.

I sent you a PM YA JERK

Also, who is Kevin Busch and Jesse Suchanek? They were the other 2 managers in the league last year

Do you think Adder will do the Roto League too? I invited him.

Jesus, my 2006 Roto team might have been the best fantasy team ever assembled. Offense is fucking DISGUSTING:

I did win that league by 32 points

Priority for joining my league if people drop out:

1) SammyG
2) MatthewAllenHanso
3) Skippord
4) Dragon

Busch is Big Vito22 I believe

I am back in, with a name change tho - Jacoby Stimsbury

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah I'm Busch, and I re-joined.

Jesse Suchanek is Loose Cannon, I think.</font>

i have joined fakes league i am no longer Assman's World War II, with a loan from general mills i have started a new fantasy baseball team in baldwin hills, the Baldwin Hills Spacemen.

Yes, Jesse Suckadick is LC

What league needs players, I want in :mad:

I set mine up, it auto invited all last years managers. if you want in PM me and I'll reserve you a spot should the other managers this year not accept their invitation.

Now I know why I couldn't sign into Wadding's league, that invitation was fucking it up:foc:

I dunno if I can handle 3 leagues, LET ME GET BACK TO YAZ

Carl Yastrzemski
Carl Yastrzemski
Carl Yastrzemski
The man we call yaz

Yeah I'm with you on getting rid of HLD because I don't feel the need to have relievers other than closers and top tier setup men. I also like how the league includes IP as a category, which is something I like better than counting CG or SHO, since they're more uncommon. It adds more value to pitchers that aren't K machines, but have lots of endurance on the mound.

7 out of 12 have signed up only, WHERE YOU AT

I'm not serious about holds, but inevitably someone bitches every year.

I'll play in FakeRazors, but that is it. Definately cannot handle more then one league.

Pussy.

Loose Cannon, didn't you play in Razor's last year and never checked your team?

Wadding, did you send me info?

Not seeing it auto ask me to join yours (I've deleted all PMs this mornings)

FRZR, not playing in a roto league this year. Just not feeling it, so give up my spot to someone else.

What's the difference between a roto league and the league you made? Just wondering, I know there is roto leagues and head to head leagues I think but whats the differences between them?

head to head is when you play another opponent (one of us) for a week. Roto is where you are always playing everyone each week.

I did send it to you, but I was wondering what had happened to you...check your PMs.

Ok, so SammyG gets a spot in my league.

no, I checked my team a bunch..I just wasn't a very good manager. If you don't want me to play, just say so. no need to beat around the bush. I'm not going to be hurt if I don't get to play fantasy baseball.

No I was just asking. It's not that important.

I always remember LC as being active. Russ was bad last year and so was VEL.

Maybe that's who I'm thinking of then.

I finished in 9th, but that was due to the fact that I only pay attention to the Red Sox. Not because I didn't check my team lol

Adder is out, MatthewAllenHanso is in

Yeah, what of it.

I'll punch you in the e-face. That's what of it.

Finally signed up to Roto Razor, I think there is 1 spot left.

LC did you want an invite to my league?

nah, thanks though. I am only going to do one league.

Hey FakeRazor, if something happens and it comes down to my name for your league you can give it to Skippord. Already in two leagues at this point.

Suck it Trebek. Suck it long and suck it hard.

This shit is gonna get serious, Hanso needs a title.

My league now has 12 members, sorry Skip

:(

I'll just dominate Hero's league

yeah hook that ish up

Gooner my league's H2H and you said you didn't want to play H2H, if you've changed your mind... well you might be out of luck. If you do want in, tell me and I'll see what's left

Gooner you already signed up. Forget the last post.

- I have but one spot left. I've sent out emails to a few people, but if anyone else wants to play speak now so that I know should the last spot not get taken by those I pm'd

YOUR Hero, when el fucko is your draft

K , I joined Hero's. I suck at baseball cuz it bores the fuck outa me, but i'll keep it updated.

What website do you use to to set up these leagues? Can I still get in one?

Dave, Adder signed up to my league but hasn't replied to anything I asked him about yours. I'd skip over him.
WeAdZ is looking for a league.

Too bad there isn't a roster spot for jail cell, then I could draft Bonds and/or Clemens.

Ahh come on...does anyone have a spot open? I need something to fill the void in my life between the end of fantasy football '07 and the beginning of fantasy football '08.

Hero I want to be in your league. I prefer H2H.

GAH

You didn't reply to the email I sent you so I thought you weren't interested. All my spots are taken :mad:

Ask Dave.

Dave, Spilly is a competitor, always updates, always smack talks, if you still got room he's a must have.

how many leagues are there?

RZA's , Hero's and Waddings?

yah

YOUR Hero never answered my draft-related question =(

PETER NORTH STARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joe Namath's Liver

because it states the answer to your question on the front pageas a huge countdown clock. >(

Dang it

gonna miss the draft again - work related. is there a way to make it autodraft the players I want?

or can I give hero a list of the players I want or some ish

-w gooner

hmmm. I don't think that would work as you ask but if you preselect your draft that'll help

PROTIP,
if you do that, don't just go for the expected players, the auto draft will give you the best ranked player anyway, so if there are sleepers you want, then add them to your wish list. Look over how you think the draft would go, and choose your wish list in a round by round-ish manner. Not just the top 25 players that are out there as your wish list, that just means after round 2 you get top Yahoo picks.

'ya know.

Naturally

so can I like tell it to say...draft X position first, then X position, etc? cos that's kinda how I wanna roll with this

if you think it through and guess right... maybe

...or what could happen is, I draft like 5 shortstops as I listed like the top 5 shortstops I want or something

will be interesting to see how this plays out

If I could get in I'd love it, but I realize it's late

get back at me bout that shit

Draft 2niiiiiite, as usual I have done absolutely no research so Its gonna be me drafting based on like last season and shit not got a clue whats happened in the off season:o

First draft of the season today. I am pumped and ready to destroy all you NUGGAS

Not sure if I'm gonna make the draft today. I might be able to but at this point I'm gonna assume I won't. We'll see though.

This year I'm the least prepared I've ever been, but I'm pretty confident in my baseball knowledge anyway. I pretty much know about every player out there.

<font color=goldenrod>Shit, forgot the draft was tonight. But I'm gonna make it...might not be able to finish it but I'll be there to pick my key players at least.</font> :cool:

not prepared at all. You know what though? That's ok.

I still have 2 spots open in my league...I've PMed a couple "interested people" and never heard from the, sent info 2 two people who said they would play then never signed up...etc. Draft is on the 15th, PM me.

Well now, one draft done, and here's my team:

C - Brian McCann
1B - Prince Fielder
2B - Ian Kinsler
3B - Kevin Youkillis
SS - Orlando Cabrera
OF - Matt Holiday
OF - Lance Berkman
OF - Eric Byrnes
Util - Chris Young
BN - Jermaine Dye

SP - Brandon Webb
SP - Yovanni Gallardo
SP - John Maine
SP - Andy Pettitte
SP - Greg Maddux
SP - Tom Gorzelanny
RP - Manny Corpas
RP - Carlos Marmol
RP - Joakim Soria
RP - Jonathan Broxton
RP - Rafael Perez

Really young bullpen. Drafted Berkman by accident but he fits the team well, I guess. Was hoping for Brandon Phillips in the 3rd but someone actually took him in the first round (AHEAD OF UTLEY???????). I was somehow able to get Prince Fielder and Matt Holiday with the 11th and 14th picks.

Hmm...I guess not terrible for my first draft. Definitely could have made some better decisions for a couple spots but whatever. Pretty weak in the SB category.

Hopefully Hanley could be around the same as last year. The Marlins losing Cabrera definitely won't help. Was pretty torn on that first pick between Hanley or Reyes.

LOL yeah. Was thinking the same thing as you. Getting Sizemore in the 2nd round and then hoping Phillips would be there a couple picks later for the 3rd round. Phillips getting drafted like 4th overall kinda messed up that flow.

Was actually gonna get Berkman if he got back to me too.
