It occurs to me that enforcement is going to be difficult. I won't be trying to find more sources than the two in this post. For example, Chino Smith's birthday isn't readily known. But, someone who really digs might find it. I won't be digging.

I won't be checking other teams' players to ensure they are correct.

Scumby created the league, he will check rosters. His leagues are always cool.

110/120, I don't care as long as we decide on cap before knowing month.

Most of the top NeL players I looked at on baseball reference had birthdays, but I'm sure there are a few unknowns out there. If that is the case, I think the most fair thing to do is include those with February, the shortest month.

I proposed we go with a $120 million salary cap. Denorien suggested $110M instead. Anyone else who thinks we should go with the lower salary cap, please speak up! Thanks

I did make a list of the birth months for the most expensive players, and once rosters are finalized a day or two before the season starts, I will check each roster for errors, but I certainty do not anticipate there will be any problems. I completely trust everyone here to play fair, these are, after all, very simple rules. I want to make it fun for everyone.
