Prior to the start of the bidding, I'd like to give you all a piece of advice. 3 years ago, prior to the 1966 season, the Reds GM, DeWitt, traded Frank Robinson to the Orioles for Milt Pappas and Dick Simpson, saying that Robinson was "an old 30." Going into this season, he is going to be a really old 33. So it is probably best to avoid bidding on him and save your money . . . Though I might make a bid for sentimental reasons.

Gordie signed-up on the OFET thread at 12:55 on 12-Nov

Here is the proof - so now he's out? That stinks.

Everyone please try to recruit a reliable replacement.

Yeah, franky, FRobby is definitely washed-up, will probably go for the minimum. But I hear there's a guy named Woody that's worth 10X his posted pay - I think it's Woodward.....

I'd be interested if this is a board draft and not a live draft. I just started one other 1969 team, so this would be my 2nd in the set. If your league needs a whipping boy, look no further!

It's a board draft, same concept as the 1999 and 2008 auctions you're in.

Sorry About Screw Up

Postby GordieHowe » Sat Dec 05, 2009 9:00 pm

I have no memory of signing up, but obviously I did. I know I told RJNewman I wasn't in. I will be your final team, if needed, and my apologies to the league. If you have someone else for the 12th spot, please use them.

Let me know at: gutstowin@aol.com
what my status is. I've never done an auction format league in any format, but I'm sure I can figure it out.

Once again, sorry for the mix up.
