I think I just realized something. Namely...a difference between Netplay folks and ATG folks. Netplay folks are used to having holes in lineups and lousier than 1 range fielders at some positions. ATG folks are used to having All-Star lineups through and through.

Having to actually use players like Stuffy McInnis (and his 15 game injury and overall replacement level-ness) is repugnant to much of the ATG community mindset. Personally, I think it's way cool. Not to mention how cool his name is.

And that's my guess as to why these restricted theme leagues aren't more popular with a significant portion of the ATG clientele. Pity, in my opinion.

MM - Franny and I just talked, no problem with drop, and wouldn't change my last pick so RedBeards can continue on with draft.

Hmmm... this does change things quite a bit.
Now I have three picks, what do I do?

hmmm...

It's that ATG vs Netplay mentality, I guess.

Trey, I was having a heard time deciding between the 46 Cards pitching and the 40 Reds - the Reds have great RP and three good * starters, and I almost went with them.

I like the 46 Cards a bit better, because their *SPs are stronger, and Beggs likes to kick my ass. But I'll settle.... :lol:
