YIKES (AGAIN)!!! SHIFTING SANDS -- Dose #2

[pacoboy]

Who's going to be around to take a proxy (proxies)

I have mine, Meat's and Uncle's so if giddyup picks we can FLY !

[pacoboy]

Proxy for myself, He's Meat (per foggy one) and Uncle left with

modmark, rosenthm, and spicki in their PM's

[rosenthm]

Proxies executed for He'smeat. paco and Uncle...Gidyup is Up

[rosenthm]

Here'e the totals on the ERA rule that some requested:

Bigmahon 5
DocTax 4
Foggywock 5
Giddyup 5
Hesmeat 3
Memphis 8
Modmark 5
Mrbbw 5
Pacoboy 4
Rosenthm 6
Spicki 5
UncleNY 4

Two Qualifications:
1. It's hard to tell compliance because of the 3 categories (Starters. total roster or percentage ssalary)

2. I did this from the draft thread names and I may have skipped or missed one, or I may have mistaken one of the last names for another player (A bunch of Hall's for instance and not all are ERA eligible)

If you question my totals to this point send me a PM or email and I'll check my totals and/or names. I've made a spreadsheet to keep up with the ERA rule as we go so I can give you info easier now as we go along. I should have made a spreadsheet when we first started. I'll do that next time....if I survive this Shifting Sands league.

Uncle NY has to repick rd 14 in HARRIS since he had Honeycutt

.....acutally he caught that himself but for some f'd up reason didn't fix it.

(and I'm not about to....)

I missed Ryan and have added it to my spreadsheet, however Ryne is not an alternate spelling. I believe it is pronounced like "Rhine" with one syllable and not two as in Ry an. That said I had counted O'Leary because of the name Charli or Charly or as a nickname for Charlene. I do have you with 6 valid ERA names. Sorry I missed Ryan.

Reprinted with permission of the author from the draft thread:

I would like to point out that I would never prompt another to skip someone. I would also like to thank uncle for all he has done to keep us going under less than ideal circumstances. I must however point out that Joe Evans was picked by some nitwit many rounds ago. I admit that if I were looking to see if Joe Evans had been picked I would never have imagined him being picked as early as he was(though in this league his defense is an asset).
