Keyz, sorry to see you go, but it sounds as if you might want to come back down the road?

Still need AT & Hawk to check in. No reply to email or FB (in AT's case) Anyone else have contact info for Hawk?

Hawk was last seen over the Grand Canyon fighting a California Condor. I rang this park ranger I know but he was laid off in the Govt. Shutdown fiasco. In retrospect we shoulda fit Hawk with a GPS device on his talon.

It sounds like a lot of the group like the pre-selected ballparks, and I'm good with that. (I actually kinda like drafting parks, just the way it was before, but I'm fine with a consensus if it's pre-selected parks - that's OK too).

I'll look for an email for nythawk a little bit later today. I might have it. Should I PM it to you Joe?

We could always draft ballparks in round 1 to get the best of both worlds, instead of a randomization.

I'm fine with whatever the group decides to do. Your idea is interesting Corky.

Firstly congratulations to gbrookes especially on making it a threepeat! I would be disappointed with the result, except I have been so busy that I had not checked on my team recently, so to find out I made it to the World Series is a positive. I am sure I'd be a lot more upset had I been following it day by day lol. I've lost several of those WS over the years in that fashion - probably just how i build my teams & how the dice tumble.

Anyways I am quite happy to have gotten that credit.

I am in for NLD 34 as long as it does not start until after October 15th as i will be out of town over the long Canadian Thanksgiving weekend.

Ok, looks like we have a couple of issues to decide.

1. Ball park picking
- Random
- First round (Really this is a "pre round" I would assume)
- Drafting with a pick as usual NLD.

I guess we should have a vote?

2. Replacing Keyzick
- I've pinged Zim: He said "i'm in" and then he said, he's having PC Problems. I've told him we're not starting until the 15th so maybe his PC will be fixed by then
- Also pinged Silver, but he's busy until to December.
- Finding someone new (or old)
