This man knows things. Draft went way fast with less teams. I say we aim to have everything set by end of week for a Sunday night / Monday am opening day.

You sure know a lot about commissioneering without actually ever commissioneering. Funny how that works.

I never said one thing about comissioneering.

Never claimed to know things from a commish perspective.

I just know how to play, have fun, and win championships.

Let's finish this sucker today, fellas. Then get those teams entered into WIS.

If I finalize teams and divisions on Sunday in WIS, will games begin Monday? Can't remember what the turnaround is.

I think you'd need to be done by Fri or Sat for the games to start on Mon.

... Whitey Ford, turrible but he's a lefty

I think that Ford's 1950 season will be better than the house thinks. His BB/9 will rise in this sim compared to his real-life rate, but I'm betting that will stay manageable.

It's either a 48-hour or a 72-hour wait after finalizing teams/divisions.

 

[RnR]

In all seriousness, a COB Friday deadline for having the league signed, sealed and delivered is probably a happy medium for everyone.

Now that's a voice of reason.

Thanks. Texted him.

X Timed out. Moops and Hoos on Autoskip, so back to Bogart. Sent him a text.

 

[Koya]

Would be curious to get an objective eye on the draft... Best values, worst picks. Maybe we can get some Jcommentary.

Sent him a text to see if he's up for it.

 

[Bogart]

skip me. I got nothing left. Will get a pick in tonight.

 

[rodg12]

Back to you then, Koya.

Deacon Phillipe, SP

Again, shouldn't be turble.

Not a lefty on my staff.

He was alright for me in the Franchise SIM. Thought about taking him over Harper.

25.06 (390): C Hartnett, Gabby

 

[Super Nintendo Chalmers]

Claude Passeau, P

Don't need him but there is no one left to take.

Ironically, he has a lower whip than Carl Mays, my #2

Franco texted back that'll try to check in tonight or tomorrow for a review.

Franco texted back that'll try to check in tonight or tomorrow for a review.

While he doesn't usually like my teams, I do appreciate the perspective.
