Is there any interest in starting a SD league?

Any other red blooded males out there? C'mon, we all love the smell of leather and the crack of the bat.

I'm very tempted Archer, but with school, work and no cable I can't possibly see this ending well.  I'd probably end up being a dead team.  Sorry!

Ps 135

Quia in humilitáte nostra memor fuit nostri: * quóniam in ætérnum misericórdia eius.
Et redémit nos ab inimícis nostris: * quóniam in ætérnum misericórdia eius.
Qui dat escam omni carni: * quóniam in ætérnum misericórdia eius.
Confitémini Deo cæli: * quóniam in ætérnum misericórdia eius.
Confitémini Dómino dominórum: * quóniam in ætérnum misericórdia eius.

For he was mindful of us in our affliction: * for his mercy endureth for ever.
And he redeemed us from our enemies: * for his mercy endureth for ever.
Who giveth food to all flesh: * for his mercy endureth for ever.
Give glory to the God of heaven: * for his mercy endureth for ever.
Give glory to the Lord of lords: * for his mercy endureth for ever.

We have to hurry up. Opening day is a week from tomorrow.

Best thing about fantasy baseball Mith is the season is so long you really only have to check in a couple times a week.  If that.  You really should do it.

Everyone good with ESPN? We have the option of a few different types of scoring.  My vote would either be rotisserie or head to head points.

QuoteScoring Type: Customizable leagues contain five different Scoring Systems. The five systems are listed in detail below:

Rotisserie: Rotisserie, or 'Roto', is the most common way to play Fantasy Baseball. In this scoring type teams are ranked from first to last in each stat category. Points are then awarded according to the order in each category and totaled to determine an overall score and league rank.

Points-Based: Points-Based scoring allows you to assign a given point value to each individual stat category (ie HR=4, RBI=1, etc.) Standings are based on the accumulation of points covering all stat categories and combined into one total points column. The team with the most overall points wins.

Head-to-Head: Points: "H2H" Points is very similar to how fantasy football is played. It allows you to assign a given point value to individual stat categories (ie HR=4, RBI=1, etc.) and each scoring period's winner is determined solely by which team accumulates the most fantasy points versus a single opponent. The end result is a win (1-0-0), loss (0-1-0) or tie (0-0-1). If selected, your league will have team schedules/playoffs and you will have the option to setup divisions.

Head-to-Head: Each Category: "H2H" Each Category is the most common type of head-to-head play in Fantasy Baseball. It allows you to select X number of stat categories. For each scoring period team totals are accumulated and a win, loss or tie is credited in each category based on opponents weekly totals (ie 6-3-1 in a 10 category league). If selected, your league will have team schedules/playoffs and you will have the option to set up divisions.
Note: If the league manager sets Home Team wins as a tiebreaker, the home team will win the first tied category. If there is a second, the away team will win. The tiebreaker will work alternately between the two teams.

Head-to-Head: Most Categories: H2H Most Categories allows you to set X number of stat categories. For each scoring period (usually Monday through Sunday) team totals are accumulated in each of the categories. At the end the scoring period the winner is determined by which team wins the most number of categories. The end result is a win (1-0-0), loss (0-1-0) or tie (0-0-1). These results correspond directly to each team's overall record. If selected, your league will have team schedules/playoffs and you will have the option to set up divisions.

ESPN looks fine.  And my vote would be for roto.

As far as the draft goes Wednesday would be ideal for me. 

Just let me know what you guys are thinking.
