Welcome to the league! Good luck getting the hang of things, and keep in mind that there's no way to win the league your first year. ;)

Watch out for Tim; if you're not careful he'll have your first-round picks for the next 10 years. :twisted:

[Quakers]

Welcome to ROADKILL :good:

 

BTW - If you want to avoid the temeptation of trading your first round picks to Tim, just give them to me for safe keeping ;)

Welcome Karen!

 

btw - I have no idea what they're all talking about. ;)

thanks everyone, for the warm welcome. This is my first keeper league, so will try and get up to speed quickly and not hand off the entire farm to Tim in the first 3 days...I appreciate the heads-up though!!!

 

I have fixed my team name and pic, though, as lovely as they previously were, I'm now the "Sock It Thomes" - and for whomever has sent me a trade, give me a day to see if I can figure out all the points, etc so I can decide if it's something I want to pursue.

 

10 days until pitchers and catchers, people!!! \:D/

The important things to keep in mind are that you have leverage in trades, because the teams looking to offload points will be stuck having to drop them as of next week for nothing if no deals get done.

 

Also, trading your first round pick is a recipe for winning the whole league. ;)

Seeing Dunlap, IL as you location makes me think of Tanner's Orchard. Mmmmmm. Apples!

[karenmac]

Tanners makes me happy :D The apples are great, but the apple cider donuts and cherry turnovers just made me gain 5 pounds sitting here thinking about them. Mmmmm....

I haven't been there in over 25 years, but I figured it was still there. Why wouldn't it be? ;)
