I have sent invites to a number of managers, so membership will be on a first-come, first served basis. Please put your name on the list, along with your lottery state if you wish to participate.

Remember, this is a 12-league commitment, but most, if not all, have done this before, so you know the drill.

Initial lottery states will determine the draft order for the first league and subsequent drafts will follow this rotation (unless someone has a better suggestion) which we used in the last 12-team theme.

This should be a great group of managers. Lets enjoy this brand-new candy store we are about to have! :D

You did not send me an invite, but have been in 2 leagues like this.. a franchise league and a ERA league and just started another franchise league with Schwartz. I would like to be in this one if you will have me.

Tennessee would be my state if you can add me!!!!

Hi there Herr Doctor. Please don't take it personally, but I couldn't invite everyone. If I don't manage to get all 12, then you can surely have a spot.

Again, I hope you don't take this personally, but there are a bunch of people who I would like to have first chance. I've even slept with some of them! :wink:

You are definitely first alternate. :)

Are you joking?

Charlie Bucket, you've found the 5th golden ticket. But, do you really want to see the inside of that chocolate factory????

200 million? dh?

[quote:89006fa1c8="Mr. Baseball World"]200 million? dh?[/quote:89006fa1c8]

I'm thinking 80 or 100 with DH, depending on just how deep the pool is. Even with an incredible large pool, with a 200 mil cap, the last few managers picking would end up with really slim pickins. Then again, it would recall ATGI when we did this. :) Sure was satisfying to win with the 11th or 12th pick, though...

I thought the pool might be deep enough for 200 mill........depending on the prices.....maybe the prices will be lower........I am good with whatever........or we can wait and see the pool and then figure that out.....

Wrong, sir! Wrong! Under section 37B of the contract signed by him, it states quite clearly that all offers shall become null and void if -- and you can read it for yourself in this photostatic copy -- "I, the undersigned, shall forfeit all rights, privileges, and licenses herein and herein contained," et cetera, et cetera... "Fax mentis incendium gloria cultum," et cetera, et cetera... "Memo bis punitor delicatum"! It's all there, black and white, clear as crystal! You stole large intestines! You bumped into the hospital nurse which now has to be washed and sterilized, so you get nothing! You lose! Good day sir!
