Lets keep everything here in the new boards - I know I'm not the only one no longer keeping up on the old boards.

We have to change divisions mid-season? :(

BTW, I got Giambi in both leagues :) :) :) :) :)

The order of the leagues is based on league standings..... :)

and we can start drafting anytime.. Hawyeye is up.. I made a note ont he Old Board.. and boy having two boarrds sure is confusing......

JUst a reminder

During the season, you will be limited to your 40 man averall roster. If you want to pull guys up to replace injured players, send guys up and down for whatever reason, go for it. But once the season starts, its limited to the players you own and a 25 player active roster.
The plan is to play 2 seasons per year
We would reconvene in October for a 3 round FA draft. The advantage here is that, knowing how your team did in the first season, and with a good idea of how your players looked in real-life 2005, you have all kinds of ways to tinker.
A prospective schedule looks like this:
Play first season. All active rosters are 25 man only, but you can use any of your roster at any time.
July-September- dead period, except for trading, which is allowed at any time. We can all move on to our other pursuits, strato or otherwise.
October or November- 3 round optional FA draft, based on the standing from the first league. Any drops must be declared before the draft, and any player dropped goes into the FA pool. You can use 1, 2, 3, or none of your picks in this draft. After this draft is complete, no FA moves of any kind until the preseason draft for season 2.

Season 2 for 2005 shodul be able to start first week in October....

remember there are no more serpentine drafts. This is the order for each round. When we conduct our 3 player draft in September, draft order will be :

New West Division
1 Hawkeyes
2 Ineluki
3 Sykes
4 Smackk
------------
New Central Division
5 Fresh Meat
6 Blueiguana
7 Kavikstad
8 Cubit
-----------
New East Division
9 Jack
10 BobM1007
11 Detroit Tigers
12 Ducapa

the order of draft will prevent us from using Penns site other than add/dropping players..

IF ...IF managers are ready to draft NOW... please go ahead.. there would be nothing magic about waiting IF you are ready tomake your picks now..... if you intend to pass.. just make that known

So Hawkeye, when you are ready .. go for it !!

thanks
