What do Edgar, Jespah and Cowdoc have in common? Hmm... Or how about Ragman, Andy and George?

As you may know, I am not real ept (which is the opposite of inept) at score keeping for this game. I was relieved last season to be relieved of the responsibility for that. I know that there are people who excel at that; I am not one of them.
So I get to focus on other things...
New for this year is Team Play. I have (tentatively) divided the players here into teams. Mr and Ms Cowdoc, George and Rhys will be on different teams and pretty much every team will get stuck with one Bostonian. Girls will be assigned to different teams, of course.
The first team that has finished picking is comprised of Edgar, Jespah and Cowdoc. Ragman, Andy and George wrapped up their choices today. I hope that they will give names to their teams.
Let me know if there is someone you can not tolerate on your team. But I do need to assign Tico somewhere.

I can't imagine anybody wanting me on their team. My stats make an inchworm look tall.

@McGentrix,

I have you penciled in on a team along with Osso and me.
Our best hope may lie with coming up with a scary name.

@CoastalRat,

Thanks, Coastalrat.
He becomes the 14th player to post picks. More to come as we get closer to the start of the season...10 days to go!
Coastalrat will be teamed with Miz Cowdoc and Rhys in the game within a game.
We welcome new players.

@mysteryman,

I have you penciled in with a couple of other people who have indicated that they will play this year. They haven't made their choices for Week #1 yet. I am intending to wait until that happens.

@realjohnboy,

Miz Cowdoc, Rhys and I. Sounds like a winning combo to me.

They aren't allowed to trade me, are they?

@George,

need to check with "my George" - he brought fresh Turkish delight back from his vacation for me and is having village music put on c.d. by his uncle and cousin - I owe him a choice or two for the first week

@McGentrix,

I haven't looked at my picks since I posted them. I bet I want to change some by now. We'll see.
