Rube can have my spot It looks like I'll be traveling for the start of this event and don't want to hold things up. :D

I will assign the leagues this week and like the Good People Tournament I will need a commissioner for each league. I will take care of the league which I'm in so there is need for 3 commissioners in the other leagues. Since there are 4 leagues then this event will cover one round for everyone to participate in and then a Champions Round. The Champions Round will be made up from the following 12 participants...

1. League Champions----4
2. League Finalists----4
3. Next 4 best records from all leagues combine....I will take the best 4 records and the tie breakers will be decided as follows:
a. runs differential---runs scored less runs allowed and if a tie then
b. Pick Three Lottery--highest to lowest

I will have the following gifts for the Champion and the finalist...

WOW...now those are awesome gifts ! :D

Wow - that is a great incentive. Joe, thanks for letting me take your place, I'll try to do you proud.

gonna start building a team, what is the format please?

And to think that I only live 90 minutes from Cooperstown. Used to bring my boat to Glimmerglass Lake, the southern end of which is less than a mile from the Hall; at least I did until milfoil overran the lake :cry:

Baseball and Prizes!! Two of my favorite things!! Thanks Bobby :D

Petro, my wife and I love visiting Cooperstown. Every 2 or 3 years, we drive over from NH (about a 4 1/2 hour drive for us) and spend two days and a night there, just soaking up the atmosphere and taking our time at the HOF. Last time we went was on our anniversary a couple of years ago. (I have a great wife, who was EXCITED to spend our anniversary basking in all things baseball). :) However, if you don't want to be humbled, DON'T try the speed gun on your 50 year old (+) throwing arm. I think I could only toss it about 46 mph, or something like that. Some 14 year old kid who went just before me had a faster reading that I did. :oops: :roll:
