Ok. So far I've found Zeke to take over the Hounds of Hell (a while ago) and Rob to take over Young Guns Chavez Ravine (just now). A few of you should be familiar w/ them, and I think they should do fine in this league. Please do extend your warm welcomes (and whatever tough love and smack talk  ) to them and whoever else will be joining us to take over the remaining teams. Do give them a chance to get better acquainted w/ how this league (and the relatively unique setup) works before y'all go and try to fleece them, ok? ;D |

And oh, if you know anyone else who'd fit right in, again, please do point them this way. Thanks.

Rob had decided to switch to Chavez Ravine instead though I didn't see his PM until now.

BTW, you guys are welcome to change your team names after you've decided which team to take -- just don't change it again at least until next year so the rest of us are not confused by constant name changes. ;D |

We now have a taker for the Hoboken Phobes to be renamed to Highlanders. Just one last team to go w/ the Young Guns (and hopefully, Garf will show up soon to reclaim his Center for Ants).
BTW, new team owners may also want to go through the players list on Yahoo to get a better feel for how players actually perform w/ our scoring system, especially if you're not familiar w/ sabermetrics and don't want to have to run some of your own calculations on a spreadsheet to get a better idea. OTOH, don't be fooled by how pitchers score. Solid-to-good SPs will look great (better than everything else) on first impression while even the best RPs will seem underwhelming by comparison, but just looking at the total points they produce is not the best way to value them. It's best to consider their value w/in the context of the whole system -- and I'll leave that for you to figure out for yourself...

Yes! The league is finally full again!  Let's see if the league won't be that much better going forward w/ the few new team owners join us (and Garf being able to resume as owner of Center for Ants). ;D And again, welcome to the league, y'all! |

BTW, newcomers would do well to check out the various resources/tips in the resources section, especially this old post (that I just updated slightly): Some Useful ResourcesAgain, please feel free to ask questions. I'm very often available throughout most workdays and parts of weekends either on Yahoo IM or by email. |
