Hey Rich is was nice meeting you this year. I've seen you before and recognised the face and regognised the name from the boards. I just didn't put the 2 togetther till now. Nice team. You've got a great chance for big bucks.

Thanks Vander. Which team are you again? Is it Team 4?

I'm in the other league, but have known Dave G for over 40 years and talked to you after the draft.

After viewing your league's draft board, I thought your team looked like one of the strongest. Really liked your picks a lot and the way you went about assembling your team. I think McLouth really bounces back this year. I have him in 2 other leagues but not on my main event team. Take care.

Hey Rich:

John sent a picture of your main event to me and I reviewed it in Hawaii. I love your first 3 picks. Big power and speed combo. You went light on pitching, so if that works out for you that will be one good team.

Mahalo, Jack.

Totally agree with you about my pitching. I feel as if I'm one starter short. I was also disappointed that I couldn't get a couple back-end starters that I really liked. Bud Norris in the 25th was not in my plans! There were some very good drafters in this league and it was a tough draft from start to finish.

Enjoy your stay in Hawaii. I was there about 4 years ago on Oahu and the Big Island. Fantastic trip. Never been to Maui.

I think I'll pass on that this year. It didn't go over very well with a couple league mates in the past, even though it was just my opinion and all meant in good fun. No need to get on someones bad side before the season even starts.

It was good to see you again this year and good luck this season.
