Concern had been expressed that we might not be able to put together rosters with salaries of less than $60 million if the league salary cap is set at $80 million. Is that not an issue?

I also think $50M is too low, though, admittedly, I haven't checked the salaries to see if $60M will basically give us our teams from the get go. I did notice that Vlad is the highest paid hitter at less than $9M, when in the last league there were a handful of guys at $10M+.

Meanwhile, we're still trolling for players. I hope nobody's surfing on ye olde site. I've told my bro Mark a couple times over the past couple days, but he still hasn't shown up here....then again, I know he's glued to the TV because of the hurricane.

BK, when do you want the change done. I leaving for a vacation on Wednesday.

by **bkoron** » Mon Sep 05, 2005 1:34 pm

Any time, penngray, and thanks. "Now" would be good. :) Please before Wednesday. Have a good trip. Where you heading?

Hey, maybe you know: in an $80M league, will TSN accept rosters that are less than $60M?

Ok, here is my SAFECO team that starts tonight. The other Stadiums in my Division are:

SHEA- (L)- 1-12, (R)- 1-6, (L)- 1-12, (R)- 1-3
Turner- (L)- 1-8, (R)- 1-5, (L)- 1-11, (R)- 1-8
Skydome- (L)- 1-12, (R)- 1-12, (L)- 1-12, (R)- 1-12

C- V. Martinez (S) SP- Ol. Perez (L)
1B- Green (L), Phelps (R) SP- Peavey- (R)
2B- B. Roberts (S) SP- Radke- (R)
SS- Tejada (R) SP- Maddux- (R)
3B- Ramirez (R) SP- Eaton- (R)
LF- Matsui (L) RP- Foulke (R)
CF- Berkman (S) RP- Dotel (R)
RF- M. Cabrea (R) RP- Percival (R)
DH- B. Williams (S) RP- Shouse (L)
DH- Sosa (R) RP- Gryboski (R)

I traded Sheets to get Tejada, Radke, Foulke, and Gryboski. How does this team look now? I know it will be up to the roll of the dice now. My only guys who did not play alot is Ramirez and Martinez. Phelps hits Lefty's and one team in my Division has all Lefty SP, (Randy, Martoh, ect). Any feedback will be welcomed. Looking forward to the new season :D . SGT D

In that division, I wouldn't bet against the guy with all the lefties. Best of luck, Sarge.

We're still looking for:

Curt - weighed in on the old board but hasn't shown up here
Mark - Tom says he's been in contact
Colonel Doug
TonySanFran
Anthony Pisano

Hi Everyone

BK invited me to join this league. I've been playing Diamond Legends/ESPN CFB for years. Played SOM table game back in the 60s/70s. First time trying the web version.

I've purchased a 2005 team, but don't see Iron Range on the league list. Emailed BK for the password but haven't heard back from him yet.

Where do I find the league and what's the password?

BTW, give me Michigan late draw for the lottery thing-y.

by **cwolfson1** » Mon Sep 05, 2005 9:22 pm

See that 7 owners chose their lottery state, and one post refers to 5 others still outstanding. Is the league not showing in the list of leagues with openings because it's already full?

by **bkoron** » Tue Sep 06, 2005 12:53 am

I emailed the rook and straightened him out. Tonysanfran is giving up his spot to the CWolf (unless somebody else wants to).

I put up a sign on the old bards, but Pisano hasn't responded. I think I have his email at work, so I'll try that tomorrow.

The Colonel is helping out in Louisiana, so we may not hear from him for a few days yet.

penngray, you still reading here? Could you please set up cwolfson as a new user for our league? I'll email you. Thanks!
