Big Daddy is right, but its still best if you can be there for the first few rounds.

Yes BD is correct but I've found that the best method to use is to be there for the first few rounds (if willing) and try to get your key players first and then set it up for austo draft for the remainder of the draft. Note that auto drafting will sometimes give you, for instance, 4 pitchers in a row if who you have if all of them are higher rated than a outfielder or infielder.

It did that for me in football last year. My first 3 picks were 2 QB's and then a f-ing FG kicker.

So keep that in mind and try to make it for the early stages if possible. I'm thinking we should have this tomorrow evening. Still need everyone to commit to a day this week.

Kevin or monk you might want to email everyone in the league about this change. You should have all the emails there in the league. I know I made my email viewable and I think most everyone else did also.

Just a suggestion so that everyone knows and is not left in the dark.

I e-mailed everyone just now with the default Yahoo address they had given...alot of these guys I had no idea who they were so I'm hoping they check their mail SOON.

Anyone in the fantasy baseball league reading this now, pay attention:


DRAFT WILL BE TUESDAY 25TH @ 6:40 CST ! ! !DRAFT WILL BE TUESDAY 25TH @ 6:40 CST ! ! !

Also, I suggest everyone download the latest Java Virtual Machine update HERE

Repeat: Bama6895 will begin kicking your butts at 7:40pm EST March 26th.

I like this way of announcing the draft better.

Didnt recieve the e-mail but it doesnt matter I unfortunatly cnat make the new draft time since i will be at work but i will let the computer do its magic....saw the thread to late and dont even have time to rank players execpt top 25 so i will build from whatever they give me...did we decied on $$ or what just let me know thanks

 

[Felonious Monk]

nhl,

There were a few people I didn't bother e-mailing, you included, because they were already aware of the draft time change.

I think we're just going to play for a nice little MadJack "annual" fantasy baseball champ trophy that can be passed around each year to the victor. Too much of a hassle in rounding up $ and then mailing it back out and so forth.

Besides, "I play for fun!"

 

[nhl8810]

That works for me monk was just curious thanks for the reply

 

[jerbeek]

In my opinion if each person had to chip in a small amount (even if it is only $10) I think we might have more incentive for everyone to have an active team. It is not much fun if everyone thinks - oh well, it didn't cost anything so I won't follow this closely. A fantasy league is fun when everyone is involved.

If you have Yahoo Instant Messenger, please sign into it right now.

If you don't have it, please try to download it ASAP.

We need to go over the draft order and how we're going to do this, IF we decide to change it.

I'm logged into Yahoo IM right now so look for me.....tmaculate1.
