Battle for Bragging rights going into '07

[Terry101]

SBC is not my favorite, but it will be fun and challenging to do something with it.
Mesquiton was interested-at least he was- a few days ago, but if Mesquiton or Markp65 or anyone else joins we should run a separate randomizer with the remaining 19 stadiums IF the new person does not want Rogers.

Question: Is any one of the two rounds pitcher only and the other one hitter only OR is it just one hitter one pitcher- you grab one in whatever round you want?

[Jerlins]

Damn, this is heartless. I'm in the home run haven division!!! But, I have won a ring in this park, so who knows. Let the games begin!!

[Stoney18]

Yeah Jerlins, you are the odd man out in our division. I don't fare well in hitters parks so that will help you out.

I don't like that Big is so excited about his park. Doesn't bode well.

[mesquiton]

Hey guys, just got Terry's PM, thanks! I'll be glad to jump in if you want me. If Mark (or anybody else on Bodie's list) wants the spot, no prob, I'll step aside. Otherwise, looks great, I'd be happy to take AT's spot, stadium, draft pick and all!

[markp65]

Thanks for the invite, gents. I'm going to helping my mom through her post-op this week with limited free time available, so with the blessing of the commish I'll concede my spot to Mesquiton.

[mesquiton]

Thanks Mark, and all the best with your Mom!

If I'm in, my first pick is A-Rod.

durantjerry: re: LOTO Finals, I personally see nothing wrong in arguing in favour of something that I feel is more fair to all involved, especially when it was something robvoz had used in the past. I doubt my draft spot would have been much higher, and I still would have taken the same park, so in the end it was no skin off my nose. Having the first ballpark pick overall certainly hasn't helped your team. ;) :P

Re this league, I do agree, and I do not recall saying otherwise, I was at fault for mis-reading the rules. You obviously misunderstood the part where I said "I definitely would NOT have signed up if I had read that correctly." so I take that reading comprehension course if you take it for misreading something so obvious. :wink: :P

I'd like to apologize again to Puckin Drunk, and especially to owners like Jerlins (who is a class act as I've found out). I'm sorry for pulling out, but I did not want to play in a league where my park was chosen for me, and I did not think it would be difficult to find a replacement (which it wasnt). If it had been a park I had had some interest in playing in, and had it been a problem to find a replacement I'd have stuck around.

[Jerlins]

Folks, I'd like to wait until at least Friday to load the team. I have credits due to me on Friday and am presently on track to get into 8 more playoffs with my present teams. I've no credits at present and the $25 sure would look better in my pocket than theirs 8) . This is moving a lot faster than I thought. If this presents a problem to anyone at all, I'll toss in the $25, so as not to keep the league waiting. Being in the West, I'd be one of the 4 to finish up the league anyways. Maybe it will take at least that long anyways, and if so, ignore this post.

Also, thanks ArrylT for the kind words. You've shown yourself to be a class act as well with your posts both here and privately to me.

:cry:

I hate loosing out on AT, he's a great guy to have around in a league but I understand the circumstances as I am sure we all do.

Having said that welcome Mesquiton :D

My .02 in re: to Jerlins' previous post. Loading later is fine by me. I'm in credit burn mode as well so, all's cool 8)
