How about picking the auction lges today too with "Team X" and "Team Y" for the potentially unfilled spots?

uh-oh, #1 pick, I may not be able to hate the yankees this year

I agree with a few others that cutting too deep for those that finish near the top would be a big negative for the players. Whoever finishes close will have had a great season and proven to be highly skilled - whoever wins among that group probably had the best luck. Too big a gap (such as second pl...

I'll repeat what I said on the other thread, slightly modified. OVERALL #1 $100,000 #2 $10000+free entry next yr #3 $5000+free entry #4 $1250+free entry #5 free entry LEAGUE #1 $5000 #2 $1250 +$750 off next yr's entry #3 $750 off next yr's entry These changes would incrementally save $22,500 on a ca...

Gekko, using my suggestion, you end up with 18 free or discounted entries, worth $22,500, reduced by $6,825 assuming all 3rd place lge winners enter. If you further assume a 75% payout structure the net cost of these entries would be just $10,050, 2.7 % of revenue, or about $33 per entry assuming 30...

I would suggest reducing payout for overall #2-#4 while adding a free entry next yr ... #2 overall $10000 +'05 #3 overall $5000 +'05 #4 overall $1250 +'05 Additionally, rather than $750 for lge 3rd place, why not offer a 50% discount for entry next yr. These 2 changes would save $17k on a cash flow ...

I have to say, I love the way you guys shred the naive and annoying. Really, I'm looking forward to competing with the pros, the quick-witted, and the self-delusional ... after all, what joy is there in just beating a guy that names himself after an office supply accident.

my take - Orioles un 81.5 - odds are about right, I think they pick up some wins over the Jays and from out-of-division weakening, wouldn't bet it. Cubs ov 92.5 - easily the best bet, maybe not 100 wins but very close. Marlins ov 81.5 - look for history to repeat as they fall below .500 - maybe belo...

go back to Japan? ... is this guy a racist, or was that just a friendly warning that there is nothing worthwhile to see or do in Indiana?

I'm heading back to the baseball room.



I see people are paying up for C Patterson in the all the mock drafts, a little surpirsing.

And just in case you were talking to me WMD ... Republican, hatred, ignorance? Lets see... a) I am not Republican, which if you had bothered to read what was written you should have understood, b) the essence of what I said is that I am in favor of personal freedoms, and against people that have cor...

GREAT POST Nevadaman! Weapons - You obviously HAVE been in the political process for a long time because you are not only capable of rattling off a very long list of one-sided issues/ opinions, you actually seem to believe your own BS. People that cannot manage a balanced, unbiased viewpoint really ...

New mock setup starts Friday afternoon. Ten minutes between picks, so it could complete before I have to start driving to Vegas for the draft.



Only 3 days to sign up though - can we get 15 in?
