Changed the topic, too, for purposes of smack talk.

Draft Order: 1. GRLL 2. ROC 3. CUSE 4. COLD 5. SIRR 6. GUIT 7. HYSE 8. AA Also, I rearranged the divisions by putting my http://www.barleyprose.com/three cobloggers and I into the "Barley" division and JCL, NYMR, BMFC and MM into the "Gnarly" division.

Everyone has signed up! I will use a randomizer and set our draft order based on that to allow for planning of draft strategy. Hopefully everyone's good with the Sun March 17th draft date. If not, let me know. Since the NL slate doesn't start until Thursday, March 28th, we could push back to the weekend of the 23rd/24th if need be.

You all will see, with weekly roster moves, you can really manage your team for this league by looking at your roster on Sunday nights and spending 5-10 minutes setting your lineup for the week, picking up hot players off waivers, etc. That's how I do it in ABNS' other league that uses a similar scoring/roster style and it works out great.
-
Now we just need BMFC, still, and one more from someplace. Maybe someone who knows him IRL or on FB can ping him, I sent him a direct message here but never got anything back. Thanks for joining in JCL.
-
We need BMFC then. I see that Ceetar came around too, that gives us 6. So we'll just need to find 2 others on Reddit or the mean streets.
-
It looks like you signed up twice, in error. I'm gonna boot one of them. Meanwhile we still need NYMR or BMFC to sign up (I get usernames and people names mixed up).
-
Cool deal.
-
Well I need the other three folks here to join before I spread this around. Anytime, fellers.
-
League is ready for joining. http://fantasy.espn.com/baseball/league/join?leagueId=65375625&inviteId=6f934f68-69fd-4537-b262-7b3a647720e9Link is here. Draft set tentatively for Sunday March 17th at 7:30 PM. Once the five known CPF'ers have signed up I will spread this link around a smidge.
-
I mean, this will be set up similar to a league I have done with ABNS for the last several years that is tons of fun. Weekly lineup changes, and week to week scoring, which means, really, you log in on Sunday night, see who is hot/cold on your team over the last week, maybe make a free agent swap or two, and set your lineup for the upcoming week. Each week is a new matchup and a clean slate. And then there are playoffs in September. But it's OK, I am still thinking I can find a few others willing to join if this isn't your thing. We have 5 here and I can scare up 3 others I reckon.
-
Don't know if that's an option. I can also share the league link to the NY Mets reddit page once it's established. I mean, we need 3 people. That's not a lot.
-
No one from my $100 money league showed any interest in this. I'm open to other ideas, fellers.
-
We will give this a few more days to see if any other CPF'ers are interested - otherwise I can check with a couple of buddies of mine who are fans of other NL teams, to see if we can get up to 8 and get a league going.
-
Well we're stuck at 5. I agree, 8 would be super for NL only.
-
Pinged Seawolf, LWFS, Ceetar, some other CPF'ers I think also. Hoping for a few more nibbles.
-
Well I personally would want to do an NL only league. I don't really care between ESPN and Yahoo, if it's not for money, I prefer Yahoo for my own $ league but that's just me. I'd say for it to at least be fun we'd need at least 8, and preferably 10. The nice thing about single leagues is you can make do with less owners. So we have so far: Fman Metsmarathon ABNS Nymr BMFC That's five. Ashie are you sure you don't want to give it a try?
-
I know the auction style is the thing around here, but if there's enough interest in a more traditional style league done on Yahoo or ESPN I'd be happy to participate and even set the league up.
-
There's yet to be a sequel to an animated movie, of all the ones I've watched, that was even a tenth as good as the first one. First Shrek movie? Excellent. First Incredibles movie? Same thing. Despicable Me? Heartwarming. All the subsequent rehashes are just big companies cashing big checks. Pass, pass, pass.
-
I wish we had a non-Ottoneu option for the CPF'ers to all play each other, maybe in 2019 we do a free Yahoo or ESPN league and give it a go. Ceetar does play in my long standing money/keeper league that I've run since 2002 (I'm in 12th out of 13 this year).

Bad Movie Remakes -- aka: What were they thinking?!?

I loved the original AH-nold one. I hate all these reboots/remakes. I have only seen from the above list "Planet of the Apes" and "The Wicker Man" and "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and they were all garbage. -

Curious to know, from those who have seen them, which of the "Best Picture" movies are worth watching, as Fwife wants to see some of them. I am drawn to "The Post" and "Dunkirk" based on them being based on history, but don't know much about the others. Recommendations?
-
Not that I'm in this league, but ABNS and I play in a 6x6 roto H2H league and it's great fun. Each week is like a reset button. Make 1-2 changes each week on Sunday night, pick up the hot hand, and you can be competitive.

Major league parks, current and former: Citi Shea YSII Fenway SkyDome Olympic Stadium RFK (Nationals game pre Nationals Park) Nationals Park Camden Yards Tons of minor league parks and spring training games, too many for me to want to try and tabulate.
