Draft Prep for this tough league is crucial, its gonna be a grind!! :mrgreen: Would the Monday Pitchers and C...

The nice thing about Colorado is we get every kind of weather here, sometimes all in one day.

Thanks, Dan. I'm really glad you got this whole thing off the ground. Don't worry, I'm not a total greenhorn. I participated in a six-team NL Only Auction in 1988.

No word from my guys yet -- if you end up with 14, I'm happy to make it 15 -- but I don't want to take a spot from someone who really wants in -- pretty sure there will be more 8-) I'll sign you up, Todd. I'm hoping for 30, 45 maybe even more when we switch this to 'General Discussion'. Also, if so...

One thing I love about roto baseball is the variety of ways you can win a league, or lose a league, for that matter. I've never been a big believer in drafting for position scarcity. At least not from the top of the draft. Just as many people will essentially punt catcher, I've employed a similar st...

My 50-round advice would be to draft predominantly veteran players in the first half of the draft. Avoid single category specialists. Don't draft a guy who might just give you 50 SBs and not much else. I'll take a whole squad of .268, 19 HR, 10 SB guys. I like guys with atleast 3 solid years under ...

You are set! Welcome aboard....

Thanks. I might be interested in doing a second auction, too. Especially if we could drum up interest in a $250 league.

Ok, we will start taking signups here. Greg has said that the software should be ready by February. So, we'll make a date for Friday, February 7. We should start it as early as possible as rookie drafters will probably make the draft longer. If getting more than 15 signups, we will move to make two...

Do you see Billy Hamilton hitting well enough to justify his ADP? Already going in rounds 5-6 of DC drafts. I expect he will rocket up the board if he hits in the spring and looks like he has the leadoff spot locked down. I wanted him in the 6th round last night and he was gone by then. The potenti...

Football Playoff Predictions? Do you have an opinion on how to go about winning the NFFC post season contest? Can you believe there are teams out there taking Trout over Cabrera? :shock: :D ;) The last three Super Bowl champions have played in the Wild Card game: Green Bay as a 6th seed in 2010, Gi...

Hi fellas, thanks for taking the time. This year I'll be entering my first Draft Champion leagues. Any advice on the best roster construction methods to combat attrition as the year progresses?

Good luck all and we'll see you on Friday night in the draft room. Is this a general "we'll see you" or are you going to be monitoring this one Greg? I'm expecting a thrill ride. Might be fun to watch, I dunno. Cheers! Chris, someone is always on hand for these online drafts. Either Tom or I will b...
