    2 Slots filled so far, (me and Brendan) and several others sure to play (justinarelost, Kinsey, maybe the return of The Chairman) It's time to GET GOING.

    Let me know of your interest ASAP.

    I want in. I'm tired of how much more I know about baseball than you people failing to yield any financial benefit.

    I'm in.

    How long before 'Sack busts into this thread and tells us how boring baseball is and that we shouldn't be wasting our time?

    If you can't find a solid 10 or 12 or however many, I'm in again. I'll be in Afghanistan for the first two months of the season, however. Would need to know about a week in advance when the draft is in order to plan my availability.

    Excellent! I just logged in for the sole purpose of seeing when this thread was started last year (I knew it had to be soon) and here it is on top of the board. I'm in. Not participating last year made 2012 feel oddly incomplete.

    Who's gonna wear the crown this year?

    I'm in although my schedule is slammed right now so I'd prefer a draft in very early March if possible. I definitely can't make one Feb 18th through 23rd. I'll pass on collecting fees again.

    Early March works for me. Say.... Thursday the 7th? 9pm Eastern for our friends on the left coast?

    I'll go back to collecting funds. PS - $100 per team, forgot to mention that. Same payouts as always...

    100 - First in the regular season
    100 - 3rd place in the playoffs
    300 - 2nd place in the playoffs
    700 - Overall winner.

    Auction draft again too.

    So far we have

    Sherwood
    Brendan
    Justinarelost
    Kinsey
    The Chairman (THE RETURN)
    Nom Chompsky
    Zyron
    CaseyKasem


    Maybe - erk33

    Good start on this one.

    Remind me of all your favorite teams so that I can bid you into oblivion when your favorite players come around.

    Best part about rooting for the A's - my guys are all cheap.

    If erk33 is in, that puts us at 12, right? Have we confirmed the March 7 draft date?

    March 7th is off the table. I'll pm erk to see if he's in or not.

    Right now I have it set at Tuesday, March 12th at 9pm. Let me know if that's an issue. We can crowdsource this shit.

    Everyone will get a PM from me today with details on how to give me your money so we can get started. Remember, nobody gets an invite until they pay to avoid scofflaws (though the board has been VERY good about this the past two years.)

    March 12th can work for me, though 9 pm is pushing it. 7 or 8 pm would allow me to make the entire draft (i'm 9.5 hours ahead of the east coast right now).

    Hate to do this too you guys but I'm going to have to drop out of the league. Feel free to give my place to someone else.

    I think the concern there is our friends on the west coast. Could you do 8:30?
