A2K Fantasy Baseball 2006

May I entice you to this other fantasy game?

The A2K Fantasy Winter Olympics Game

Hey fbaezer,

Glad you came back. The Pancho Villa Raiders are a much more brazen name then last years Dangling Carrots.

West Coast Dolphins are ready for the draft. It's a good thing the draft is 45 days away because I know almost as much as Tico does!!

Anon

Welcome Anon. Don't worry about not knowing to much... I think I know what I am doing and that really doesn't help me all that much anyway :wink:

Just so I beat the girlie man with the long hair! Have you seen he's already trash talking on the league site??

Anon

The Boston Puppies will bite all o' yer ankles!

We also know (er, I) shiznit about any of this. But we will have a crock pot in the dugout.

I'm sorry Jespah... we have a very strict no drug policy in this league. You will have to leave your crack at home. We will also have random steroid testing (I'm looking your way Tico). The pot is alright though... that isn't really a drug is it?



Well the league is half full with 40 some days to go. If anybody else is interested... sign up. No experience necessary. There are five spots still open so sign up today!

It has a wicked bite, I assure you!

Plus, it's all about bat speed ....

We won't be testing for caffeine or tobacco, right?

I bet I know what your mascot is

JP,

I'm going to have to read the rules and all. I guess it's already set up as to how many players, players per position, and all that stuff.

Anon

Yeah,

it will tell you how many players to draft at each position. It also has limits as to how many active players you can have at each position. It is really hard to mess this up because it will tell you if you have to many players or anything. Once our teams are drafted it is a lot easier to visualize.

I set the limits for catchers higher than normal becasue it is really hard to get all 162 games in for catchers (they rarely play all 162 games). So you will be able to have two active catchers every day. Limits for the rest of the positions (1b, 2b, ss, 3b and 3 outfielders) are set to 1 active player per position plus one utility player.

Pitcher limits are set to 2 starters and 2 relief pitchers (I think) and then 3 utility pitchers (starters or relief).

We will be testing for those as well, but these two drugs must be present in your system in order to participate. The tobacco/nicotine requirments may be waived if your sunflower seed or big league chew intake is at least one bag per day.

Whew, I can do sunflower seeds and caffeine.

Will you be testing for Claritin? I mean, it'll be Spring soon, and all.

<reminds players to not soak their socks in the crock pot>

Thanks for the explanation, JPinmilw. It appears that there were some other potential players as naive as I am about the game of baseball and the game of fantasy baseball. If the time requirement can be as non-timeconsuming as you suggest, I will probably play if there is still room available. The tough part right now is coming up with a team name. I can't come close to equalling Tico and that photo of the team mascot. And he also has that snake in there too.

I was thinking about it last year and decided not to but this year I went with the 'what the hell' attitude needed to win the title with beginner's luck.

The Fiery Tamales are out to get you.

Ohhh... the Fiery Tamales... welcome aboard JoeFX.

rjb,

The name really is the most important aspect of your team and deserves a moment of thinking before making a decision. There are 4 spaces left (and I think I can expand the league if I need to) so sign up.

My mental picture:

That was supposed to be subliminal advertisement for which I'm getting an undisclosed amount of money for this candy.



Apparently it wasn't that subliminal.
