I have created the Neowin Fantasy Baseball League over at Yahoo.
The live draft is harder to schedule this year as time slots have to be picked instead of simply scheduling the time to our best convenience.
Yahoo Fantasy Baseball League Information:
League:
http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/le.../neowinbaseballPassword: neowinRox
Live Draft: Saturday, March 15, 2008 at 1:00pm EST
Current Teams and Owners:
1. bangbang023 (bangbang023)
2. Fred'sDiamondDragons (Fred Derf)
3. SirKillJerk (Sir Kill Jerk)
4. Mumble's Minions (virtualmadden)
5. lawtai (lawtai)
6. Dead Man's Party (Purple Haze)
7. Santana on Mets (golfantastic)
8. SaucE's Monsters (SaucE)
9. Moose Knuckles (JAHSHAWAH)
10. BMac's Bunters (BMac)
11. Bronx Bombers (Adamb10)
12. Go Tribe! (Arkantos™)
There are 12 slots available so I ask that only serious contenders apply. If you plan on leaving half way through the season, don't sign up. If a second league is needed, it will be created.
Please post your team name here so we can keep track on the list above.

I had a hard time signing up but I did eventually do so by using this link to get started -
http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/b1I'm sure you all know that even if I am relegated to 12th spot that I will fight viciously to take the #11 spot away from someone else. Never say die!

You guys need to let me know the name of your team when you register. I filled in two that I remember from last year, but I'm not psychic.

Added SaucE and virtualmadden.
Just a reminder, if people are going to be sore losers and try to destroy the league like they did last year, don't even bother signing up. I don't need that drama.

I'm the Moose Knuckles
I pm'ed bangbang about this but maybe if one of you already registered members can help me I'd appreciate it. I'm trying to join but I don't have the league ID# and bang's link isn't working for me. Any help would be appreciated.

Took some nifty and careful looking when I signed up to find the ID # too.

I don't know why the damn link doesn't work. It's supposed to and it did last year.

Any chance for a 2nd league?

I'm going to need to see at least 6 other people to show interest before creating a second league

I'm definitely interested if you make a second league, is it points based or ROTO?

I believe it's what you would call Rotisserie. Each week, teams go head to head. There are 11 categories to win or lose. Ranks are based on overall W - L.

Awesome let me know if a spot opens up or if a second league is created.

I'm going to have my best friend log in for me and try to at least stay somewhat to my game plan.

I'm stacked with pitching but have no offense. I'm willing to trade Ted Lilly, Roy Halladay, or Chris Carpenter for 100+ RBI guys.
bangbang023
May 28 2008, 14:38
I have SP Scott Olsen on the trading block because I really need an RBI guy.

It's bangbang vs me this week.
I'm relieved to see that he has as few hitters playing tonight as I have (3).

I totally forgot about doing fantasy baseball till I got that invite, figured I'd stop by and see what was up since no one talks in the league area. Need to try and keep up with changing my rosters. Aiming to slowly make a push for a playoff bye week.

So, I've got Rickie Weeks on my team but, since they signed Ray Durham a few weeks ago, Rickie doesn't play everyday which makes owning him a pain (more painful than his .223 average).
Anyway, I've been busy with work lately so I did the safe thing and I started Mark DeRosa at 2B. Now, I get home and check my team only to find out that Weeks had four hits, 1 run scored and 2 RBIs while I had him on the bench.
Frustrated, I went and clicked on DeRosa's scores and found out that he hit a grand slam. I suppose that makes up for it. If I had had the foresight of a sage, I could have played one at 2B and used the other as my UTIL but some things are just not meant to be.

Nooo.... Santana on Mets is making moves today which means that I no longer have made twice as many moves as anyone else. Now I need to complete six more moves to keep the pace.
Even though I have a bye this week I've still been the most active player mover. Don't ask me why but I just like to fiddle with the roster. I probably go after too many streaky players who usually play well right after I drop them.

Note to opponent: I am going down swinging.
That is all.
