I can't wait for the new season.

In the meantime, I would like to propose a slight change to the rules:

Those who want to keep their stadiums can do so indefinitely, but should people want to switch, we could allow them to do so once a year, after the prospect draft, with the draft order going from lowest cumulative record to highest.

I think some other keeper leagues do this, and it struck me as a good idea. I think it would add the ability to drastically change the style of your team, or if your park changes, it would allow for some flexibility. Anyone care to weigh in?

As long as we keep unique stadiums, I would have no objection to this rule change.

Is anyone else surprised the new set will be out so early? Even though it'll be another couple of days, I still can't wait. :)

We can take it to a vote. We need 8 managers to agree with you for it to pass.

I vote no.Hell we have only played 1 season.I would like to see things play out a little more before we start making changes already

yes-2
no-3

i vote nay

i think that you need to manage and adapt your team to your park an i think it makes it a little more challenging...but at the same time i think it is something that we can always come back to

2-yes
5-no

Well that settles that. It's not going through this time. I agree with what Aray and hawk said. Like jagman said we can always come back to it later on. Now that we got that settled lets get ready to draft!! :D
