Non-Stat Geek Fantasy Baseball

by ben nevis on Mar 9, 2009 3:55 PM EDT

OK, so I did it. I created a fantasy league at yahoo! along the same lines as last year's non-beer league/non-stat geek Red Reporter league. It's pretty normal 5x5 roto, NL only. The league is limited to 14 teams, so it will be first come, first serve. Currently, I have the live draft set up for Tues, March 24 at 6:00 pm, but we can change that if it won't suit too many people.

I had a lot of fun with this last year and it seemed to stay fairly competitive throughout the season, so if you're not inclined to stick it out the whole 162, please refrain from signing up.

So for those who want to join, go for it. The password is cincy. Is there anything else people need?

OK, my bad.

Ugh. Pride tastes bad, but you’ve got to swallow it once in a while.

OK, so the name of the league is RedReporter’09. Password: cincy.

Sorry for the confusion.

Once we've got critical mass

we can adjust the draft date & time. I had to put something up there, but we can change it later.

The mighty Monks Have Registered

Hey, I know the names of these players this season AND thanks to our NL Team Preview I even know who’s good.

I wanted to pre-draft this guy but couldn’t find his name on the list:

Wow. You're fast.

You should lead off and steal bases for somebody.

Say I just read in the paper

Cincinnati Inquisitor -

My High School’s Basketball team defeated Indian Hill in the state tournament and that’s right The Graham Flacons are rated #1 in the state of Ohio. More interestingly, it appears they will play my wife’s old high school, Bishop Waterson (of Columbus) in the next round. It is gonna be tense here in Madisonville!!!

Hard to believe that it was only 46 short years ago I played BB for Graham Local…..that was before the 3 point line, our center was 6’4’ and the next tallest guy was 6’1"…

I played ‘back in the day’
