  1. Looks like your mind isn't all you've changed. :D
  2. For the benefit of the new members (or continuing members who don't remember the details), the information about exemptions and minor league eligibility are in the rules thread (as Juan mentioned a few posts up). Information about exemptions is under Major League Rosters, item D (Keeper Roster) and information about minor league roster eligibility is under Minor League Rosters, item B (eligibility).
  3. And a hell of a lot more entertainment options now than back then, so misleading isn't particularly accurate. Good point.
  4. What is the cost of the league? Can I pay by paypal? If not, email me the address to send the money, rmaglente@yahoo.com The cost is $10 per year. The address (posted in the "2010 Site Ready" thread) is: Juan Sorensen 2590 Farmers Central Road Woodland, California 95776 I don't believe he has PayPal (he hasn't mentioned it as a payment option in the past), but he can confirm that for you.
  5. This Super Bowl is the most-watched TV show in history, surpassing the series finale of M*A*S*H. This is based on the number of people watching, not the percentage of televisions tuned to the game, so it may be a bit misleading since there are more televisions now than back then.
  6. Vance will undoubtedly be interested in next week's episode, since it features the CEO of Hooters.
  7. Three losses in a row and six out of their last seven.
  8. Watch out for Tim; if you're not careful he'll have your first-round picks for the next 10 years. :twisted:
  9. My recollection is that he'd have to be on your major league roster for now (since he's lost minor league eligibility in the past), but that you could move him back to your minor league roster when the season begins if he's sent down to start the season in real baseball. I'm not positive, though.
  10. He's the first who was known mainly as a Saint (perhaps that's what you meant). Players Doug Atkins, Earl Campbell, and Jim Taylor, coach Hank Stram, and GM Jim Finks are Hall of Famers that spent time with the Saints but were better known with other teams.
  11. Maybe you can get the perfect Big 10 record that IU just missed out on last year. :D
  12. Ball State's 4-game winning streak is over. Akron 75, BSU 70 in OT. :(
  13. The 2010 class has been announced. Jerry Rice, Emmitt Smith, John Randle, Russ Grimm, Rickey Jackson, Dick LeBeau, and Floyd Little. Richard Dent is robbed once again.
  14. I could see Prior signing with the Cubs if they were the ONLY team willing to give him a chance. Otherwise I think too many bridges have been burned.
  15. Karenmac is interested. I forwarded her reply to my PM to Juan so he can contact her with the details.
  16. go ahead and ask her - I sent Todd a PM. I just sent her a PM; we'll see what she says.
  17. I've had one thought on a possible replacement. I don't know if she feels like she can take on another league, but karenmac, who posts some in the minor league forum (she's president of the Peoria Chiefs booster club and I met her and her husband a couple of years ago when the Cubs were playing in Toronto ) is in a fantasy baseball league of mine (the one you were in several years ago, Brian, before you got frustrated by Gregg's antics) and is also in a couple fantasy football leagues I'm in (including one that's mainly NSBB members).
  18. Have you sent Todd a PM? He has been around lately, as he's been posting some in the Amateur Baseball forum.
  19. They've never been available online through cubs.com, but they have been available for mail order by calling VineLine. They're also sometimes available through eBay. They're usually not available until Spring Training games begin; I think they're shipped to HoHoKam Park before they're available for general distribution.
  20. And I believe that includes designating your minor leaguers as keepers in addition to the 10 major leaguers.
  21. The site doesn't seem as user-friendly as it was last year. I remember last year we were able to mark our keepers and the rest of the players were released automatically, instead of having to release them one at a time. Also, it doesn't seem to be set up yet to allow us to execute our draft pick trades.
  22. The NFL Network Super Bowl telecasts are in their entirety. I'm recording it tonight so I can suffer through it again tomorrow night.
  23. Ball State 64, Bowling Green 59. BSU has a 4-game winning streak and 6 of the last 7 games and are up to 6-3 in the MAC and 12-9 overall. Definitely an improvement over where they were a few years ago after the Ronny Thompson disaster.
  24. Exactly. To me that's a good thing, not a bad thing. If laziness is tolerated laziness is what you'll get.
  25. Theriot is now the only unsigned arby-eligible player.
