How about offering any newbie who joins first pick?

So I am lucky number 11....one more!! Just to clarify you pick 5 half teams here on the forum and draft anybody from thos teams. When you say half teams, you mean I can draft Yankees hitters as one of my pick for example, and I would have no rights to Yankees pitchers? Why dont we make it $200M then since it is not a random autodraft, makes unlimited transactiosn so you can try out all your players if needed. You would never be able to use 5 teams worth of players with $100M

Ducapa you need to pick a Win 4 number...i thought about having a 200m league but feel its more of a challenge to only be able to use a select group of players...also,you're not drafting 5 full teams...you have rights to the players from whatever half team you are drafting (it could work out where you end up drafting an entire team if you draft the hitters one round and the same teams pitchers another round)

Sounds like a fun league. I'll take the challenge. I have one question.
Since you have to use one of your half team stadiums it will be possible for two teams to declare the same stadium. Will that be OK?

[Madigan33]

This is a 2007 league. By that you mean the 2007 player set, not the 2007 season-2006 player set, correct?

[doug_tucker10]

welcome Mr Groundhog...yes since its probable that 2 teams will have one half of a full team then 2 teams could use the same park...Madigan its the [b:c0190c82ea]cards for 2007 season[/b:c0190c82ea]....we can use the Win 4 numbers from midday today....no clock on the weekend, otherwise we'll use a 3 hour clock to make our picks...clock starts at 10 AM and is off by 9 PM (EST) during the weekday. Thanks to all for joining league, this should be fun.

I'm gonna close this thread and take the draft over to the ILC...Fowldawg you can pick when ready...remember its a snake draft so we work our way back up the ladder with Ducapa who finishes round one and starts round 2....
