Fantasy Baseball

[BSBullies]

I thought this is something we could start up depending on interest. I would take care of running it, a Yahoo! based head to head format where we'd need at least 12 guys to have a decent experience. There may be perks for playing but I would hope everyone just loves it so much they'd join anyway

[StarStruck]

sounds good to me...you can take arod though

[Parker]

I guess we're talking about traditional fantasy baseball and not an online OOTP league? I'd be very excited about the latter but as for the former... it'd be fun but I probably don't have enough time/interest to get on board.

[BSBullies]

Yeah, traditional as I've never played OOTP before (just googled it).

[Virtual Jarmo]

Obviously I'm in.

We'll be busy with a summer tournament on the boards here, Glen, so if you just lumped fantasy baseball in with checking up on the league tourney, I'm sure you could find a couple minutes.

[Penguin]

Are we too late to have one? I was looking into it today on ESPN.

[Virtual Jarmo]

Not too late necessarily, but there really wasn't enough interest on here to get one going.

[Montreal Canadiens]

I would be interested.

[Bruins]

I'm in.

[Tuo-SabresGM]

I'm going to have to pass, mainly because I don't follow baseball like I used to and don't show much of any interest in it until late August/early September, and my time constraints right now.

If this goes through though, I'd recommend doing what Jayzin does over on Fhockey and post a screenshot of the leaderboard every so often on the forums; add to the competitive nature we already display around here.

PIT

BOS
MTL

Still time to sign up!

[StarStruck]

we should do it on espn though, i don't wanna have to check 3 different websites for fantasy baseball haha

[Penguin]

Yea ESPN is the best for me too.

We should have a prize so that it spices up the interest! Like +10 consistency to any player.

How about a +10 consistency to any player 50CON and under?

[StarStruck]

i dunno about any ehm incentive unless we are getting the whole league involved...seems like its not really fair, how much does a prize eligible league cost on espn?

[Penguin]

60CON and under makes sense. So that the ones that don't want to participate don't feel likes it's unfair.

Nikolai Zherdev would approve. Or maybe he wouldn't care, depending on how he felt at the moment.

[Jungle Cats]

i'd baseball.

[Penguin]

Tim are you down then? It would make us 8. Then we'd have to figure out when it's best to do it.

[Virtual Jarmo]

Given that the season starts Sunday night, our choices are pretty limited.

[Penguin]

Sunday 1PM Eastern Time?

[Virtual Jarmo]

Sunday 1PM Eastern Time?

Well, the season starts Sunday night at 8, but leagues that draft Sunday don't start scoring until the 2nd week of the season.

The draft would probably have to be at night either tomorrow or Friday.

Nah, I'm not a big fan of baseball.

[Penguin]

Missing 1 to fill the pool so that I can start organizing!

[Penguin]

I created the league in ESPN!

It's called EHEC Baseball

When is the best time for you guys?

[StarStruck]

anytime tomorrow, no plans and no school...

[StarStruck]

can you link me to the league bern? i searched and couldn't find it.

[Penguin]

I'll send the link/invite to everyone once we set up a date.

[StarStruck]

you should make it an auction draft, did one tonight to check em out...so much fun.

[Penguin]

I need more feedback.

Are we doing it or not?

[Virtual Jarmo]

My fiance's birthday is tomorrow, so I'll be busy all day.

[Penguin]

No worries champ.

Sunday would be best for me.
