Sox Fan on Cape

Since Yeszir is unable to do it this year, I will run the official 2013 Talksox Fantasy Baseball League. As usual, this will be done through Yahoo with a live draft to be set at a fair time in the not too distant future. I think a $20 entry fee is fair, to keep users active and to have a prize at the end. The prize will be the total collected to one winner. I'll handle money collection and safekeeping. I can even accept credit cards through paypal if that's a concern. As a group we can work out the details but this will be head to head with stats TBD. Anyone who is not banned and has a resonable amount of contributions to the eite can join this league. Expressed interest to date: Name of Player................Registered.............Dues Pd. 1. SFoC.................................. x .................... x 2. SFoC's son (Hyrax)............... x .................... x 3. J21 ................................... x .................... x 4. Palodios............................. x ..................... x 5. iortiz ................................. x .................... x 6. a700 Hitter ........................ x .................... x 7. redsoxrules ....................... x ..................... x 8. rjortiz ............................... x 9. Suzy Q ............................. x .................... x 10. User name?...................... x .................... x I want to make sure that there is interest before giving out the league data. Please only join if you will be active and take this seriously. This is fantasy baseball, it should be competitive and fun. Anyways, post if interested. Proposed Stats: (5x5 for now but we could go 6x6 or even 7x7 to make it interesting) Hitting: Runs RBI SBs Total Bases On Base Percentage Pitching: Quality Starts Net Saves Strikeouts ERA WHIP

Congrats to all that got to buy tickets. Alas, I lost power and internet due to the storm and lost out.

I was selected again.

I'm not sure about a discount the big advantage is the tickets will be all together. So it would be like a Talksox outing. Just a thought.

Just a suggestion, but you guys might think of getting a group and take advantage of the Red Sox's group package offer ( 20 or more people ). http://boston.redsox.mlb.com/bos/ticketing/group.jsp

In fairness, we should mention Deion Sanders.

In the early 60's, I was living in Belmont, MA. My best friend's dad was the shortstop for the Red Sox, Eddie Bressoud.

This is his first time.

Congrats to UserName ? and Hyrax reaching the finals. Also, thanks to all who participated, it was a fun year.

I agree, no one trades away their player for someone they don't care/want. What I'm saying is basing a trade on when they drafted a plyer is ridiculas. It's based on what you think a player is going to do, which is subjective.

Just a few observations, it seems like you guys think that just because you over paid ( drafted too early ) you expect someone to match that and give away their player. Basically saying, I want you to eat my mistake and make me better. If you want to trade make a reasonable offer, be prepared to counter offer. When you drafted them, is irrelevent if they're sucking wind.

I don't use Western Union.

Cash. via US Postal Service also works.

Iortiz, your team is hereby frozen due lack of payment of dues.If dues are paid, (within 2 weeks ) I will reinstate your status to active. I'm tired of being jerked around. You're the only one who hasn't paid.

Welcome aboard.

I'm thinking of increasing the add player from 3 to 4. If there are objections let me know. Also, I'm still waiting on dues.

They all are.

Just a reminder guys. The draft is Sunday 25th at 8:00 PM EST.

Fear not. We have ten. I would have liked to have 12 teams, but the interest wasn't there. I guess we'll have some well stocked teams. It should be interesyting.

Thanks.

All people who have indicated interest have been sent sign up information. With about a week before the draft, I'd appreciate it if this could be completed. We currently have five that have signed up and paid their dues. We have ten that have expressed interest. Although, I'm a little concerned about Iortiz ( he hasn't shown any site activity since the end of February. Anyone know where he is ? Still try ing to recruit to get us to 12. That's for your help.

I have moved the draft time to Sunday 25th at 8:00 PM EST. This is the best I can do, I hope it helps.
