[b:20f4860104]Republican/Democrat Theme League Rules: [/b:20f4860104]

1. Sign Up as a Republican or Democrat and place yourself in a Division. Two Repubs and Two Dems in each Division.

2. You may play as either party, for example if one side fills up quickly and there's seats (spots) left that's not your party, but you still want to play, you can. The idea is to try and get 6 & 6 though for lively league discussions.

3. Park Choice: Democrats park is to be from a team who plays its home games "left" of the Mississippi River, and Republicans obviously from a team "right" of the Miss. River. Busch and Metrodome excluded due to being "on" the Miss. River. Stadiums are not unique.

4. Roster requirements: Democrats must roster players that lean "left" and Republicans must roster players that lean "right". There's a couple of exceptions below. A lefty leaning hitter for example is someone who is 1L, 2L, etc. Conversely a righty leaning hitter is someone who is 1R, 2R, etc. A pitcher is the same.

5. Each team is allowed two (2) "defectors". A defector is a player that doesn't correspond to rule 4. IOW, A democrat could have (2) righty leaning players and a republican (2) lefty leaning. The two defectors must be one hitter and one pitcher.

6. Each team is allowed two (2) "Independents". An independent is a player (hitter or pitcher) that is "E", or no slant. The two independents must be one hitter and one pitcher.

7. Every team will obviously get in the autodraft ineligible players. These guys must be dropped ASAP either during waivers or right after waivers. These players can be traded after the autodraft process and before waivers. After waivers, however, the players must be dropped and dropped ASAP as previously mentioned. After waivers, during pre-season and all season you may trade only with your fellow Dems and Repubs. A democrat couldn't trade any of his defectors to a republican team for example.

8. You don't have to have any defectors or independents if you so desire.

What party will win the Championship and have braggin' rights!

[b:20f4860104]Tidbits: [/b:20f4860104]

* You're basically competing with 5 other players rather than 11 like in normal autodrafts.

* Players who are politically-minded are preferred, but not a must.

* Team names corresponding to your party would be cool.

* [color=blue:20f4860104]Last Year's Owners[/color:20f4860104] have preference and have until Noon Wed. 5/18 to sign-up before the spots go to alternates. Owners list below as are sign-ups. Goal is to load teams to start next Monday 5/23.

Got in early this year. Had to be a Democrat last year. I had vomit in my throat all year. No matter how much mouthwash I used I could not get rid of it. :lol:

Alternates need to put down Republican or Democrat

[RICHARDMILTER]

Since 75% of the pitchers are RHP don't Republican teams have a clear cut huge advantage?? Just wondering how that works, and why anyone would want a team full of players who hit LHP better when most of the league is full of RHP.....????
