NLD 42 - Are those guys still around?

I feel like Rip Van Winkle.

WTF - my two favorite childhood teams - Indians and Cubs could now play against each other for the crown.

Wow.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for all the thoughts.

First things first, we still haven't heard from GB. Can someone contact him too? I already emailed, but no reply as of yet. I'm pretty sure he's back from Europe. We have to make sure he's in and ready to roll before we do anything more.

Ok, as for cap, here's what I'd like to suggest. If you want to go for a 90 mil cap, weigh in here. If we have a critical mass (6 or more) weigh in for 90 over the weekend then we will go with that. If not, then we'll stick with 80. Last time we had a vote everyone was wishy-washy so I figure this will work better. So, six "Yea" votes or better by Sunday midnight (EDT) and we'll go with 90 otherwise 80.

If this gives anyone heartburn, I'm not hard over on this idea, just trying to keep things moving.

Falcon, your vote counts the same as everyone else's.

Semper, Glad to see you're alive and awake. However, Cubs still have to get by Kershaw and a game 7. Not sure they can actually do either. Their track record is pretty lousy.

I vote for 80M cap

80m and unlimited preseason player moves

LOL

For you Semper, as many moves as you have time to make. BTW, thanks for Escobar last time around. Our Andrus for Escobar "trade" worked well. Of course, it seems to have worked well for you too!

Joe

90M please.

90 M

Ok, looks like only two solid votes for 90 and, looking back the other posts, I don't see a groundswell for 90 so let's just stick with 80.

Of course, we STILL have not heard from GB! Can't get too far without him

Has anyone else pinged him? The site says he "last visited" on the 18th, but he hasn't posted since mid-September.

BTW, Semper, you got your wish for a Cle-Cubs Series!

I know he took his wife to Italy for a "romantic" anniversary celebration, but he left on Sept 25. I sent him a PM on Facebook last week but haven't heard back. From his posts they seemed to be having a great time, so maybe they just decided to stay and eat a little more pasta
