Division 2 Needs You!!


Some interested parties for Division 2 have vanished! We need a few brave members to fill these spots! Do you want to kill all your free time evaluating players? (jk, not ALL) Does comparing Adam Kennedy to Martin Prado really get you going? Details inside!

I need 4-6 people willing to join Divison II that are willing to check their team. Trust me it's no fun when 3 or more teams are everyones collective punching bag ...

Star-divide


Standard 5x5 Yahoo! head-to-head league with all your standard positions. Very, very basic stuff here.

Draft is set for March 27th at 5pm. If you can't make it then you will be moved up on the wavier prioity in order to make it a little more fair. Draft will be selelcted randomly by me so we can know what position we have well before the dradft is about to start. Its easier this way.

Im going to wait until Wednesday to send the invites because I'm expecting 2 more of the original invites to sign up. But if they don't, expect 5 spots to be availble. Of course I'll keep everyone posted. (Actaually from the first post blank_38 has first prority)

The comments will act as a waitlist so if you get here first lucky you!

What do you win you ask? You win a spot in the prestigious Division 1! What do you win if you win that? Really I have no idea. A better league? Sure.

So join, talk some smack and get to know your fellow SnakePitters while trying to convince them that Javier Vasquez won't have an ERA over 5!

Not from the Snakepit

but if you absolutely cannot find anyone else I would be more than willing to join (and actively participate) in a league. This is just an idea. I don’t know if this helps but I go to a Division II school that has a baseball team.

Sign me up!

I would have replied sooner but have been traveling for work. My normal league has not yet sent out invites so I’m lookin’ for another to join!

Emails for Mizzoula Osprey Fan and dash13 forwarded to PhoenixFly

If you have previously expressed interest, but have not received an invite, check to make sure the email address on your account here is good, because that’s the one we’ve been sending invites to! If you discover you need to update it, do so, then say so here – I’ll then grab the new one.

But it was the one @lion.lmu.edu. Check there for the invite. If you can’t, or it’s not there, he can resend to the hotmail one on your profile page.

OK now

I missed the memo. I’m signed up now. Unfourtunately I will have already been at work for an hour at the time (7am) any way. I’m going to have to see if I can get to the draft page at work, I work 6a-6p on Sat.

But if there is still room, I’d like to sign up.

Max teams

is set at 16 and I’m at 14. 4 invites are out so that will be first come first serve. I think we should be good now. If the spots aren’t taken by tomorrow anyone that posts below here will have priority so who knows you might get lycky!

Sorry

league is now full! Thanks to everyone that showed interest. I’ll write the names down that were invited and didn’t make it in as well as the few that wanted in but came too late.

Thanks for the interest!

Draft order will now be decided by me randomly of course, no complaining!
I PROMISE that this is random. I mean that would be kinda sad…lol.

How many did you end up with?

I can promote a couple of people to the top flight, if it’ll help…

by Jim McLennan on Mar 17, 2010 10:37 PM EDT up reply actions  

I ended up with 16.

more than that is tough. I can delete teams, so thats not as issue.

I can ask if anyone wants to move up or send you the list of people that were invited and couldn’t join. I have around 5 of those people plus whomever said anything on this thread. Up to you! Its your upper division league to control!

I can pull up four people into Division One

Send me your current list of members [their usernames here would be best] and I’ll pick the four most worthy contenders, and invite them into the top tier. Once they’ve accepted, I’ll let you know and you can delete ’em from your league.
