Need an incentive to jump in? How about a prize for the winner?

I'll send a slightly used, hard-back, first-edition copy of "Big Hair and Plastic Grass: A Funky Ride Through Baseball and America in the Swinging 70's" to the League Champ.

$60M/No DH/Weighted Waivers.

Two-round draft (serpentine/randomizer) here on the board to pick a unique stadium and one of the 13 players whose picture is featured in the book's illustration section. These players are:

Richie "Call Me Dick" Allen
"Hammerin" Hank Aaron
Johnny "Husband of Vickie Chesser" Bench
Roland "Rollie" Fingers
"Charlie Hustle" Pete Rose
Bud "I beat up Pete Rose's fists with my face" Harrelson
John Wesley "Boog" Powell
Oscar "Big Hair" Gamble
Dock "LSD" Ellis
"Mr. October" Reggie Jackson
James Rodney "J.R." Richard
"The Cobra" Dave Parker
Bill "Spaceman" Lee

The rest your team will be picked on autodraft.

Note the league is $60M. It takes brains to win at $60M.

So, how about it?

I thought the book sounded very interesting so I didn't want to wait 2 mo to receive my copy from pwooten. :P I just ordered the book on Amazon.com along with a couple more that looked interesting just to get free shipping! Should I make the finals I will ask that pwoot go ahead and send the book to the other manager.
