[OF&S]

OK, it looks like we're down to just one team that is not confirmed for 2010 and I have sent two emails to the email address attached to his Yahoo ID (Dustin H or hardstock@...) from last year's league since I can't remember who it was from here at Chop Nation. If anyone remembers who it was, please let me know.

There are two new managers for 2010: one to replace Wolf and one to replace Hot Route (Meehan) who informed me he won't be returning this season. I've replaced them both w/ guys that are in both of my money baseball & money football leagues & have been for five + years each.

[OF&S]

jamminHANES has claimed the last spot in this league. He, Corked Bats & Shoeless Joe's will conduct an offline draft (via email) from a pool of players from the 3 non-returning teams.

The draft order (determined by random # generator) will be Corked Bats, Shoeless Joe's & jamminHANES & will snake each round.

[OF&S]

League has been set up w/in Yahoo. Invites have been sent to the email addresses used last year & to the 3 new mgrs.

[OF&S]

We are currently missing only one registered mgr at Yahoo & a reminder to register has been sent to him.

The offline draft between the 3 new mgrs in progressing at a deliberate pace, but progressing nonetheless. Their rosters will be posted once the draft is complete.

I have already started adding rosters to the "offline" draft function at Yahoo for everyone else. It only allows for 30 players and most teams have more than that from the end of last season due to the DL, so we will employ a "restricted free agents" policy which essentially means that no one else will be allowed to pick up a "restricted free agent" unless the owner has indicated that he intends to release them completely. I will post an alphabetical list in the Commissioner's Comments which everyone will need to refer to before adding a player.

We used this method last year in Dynasty I, & I will admit, it was not the most popular feature of the league & there were a number of foul ups which I had to reverse, but w/o a better feature available in Yahoo, it is either this, or people lose rights to some players that were on their roster at the end of last season, which I can't accept as an option.

Checking the restricted free agent list will be a real importance when making a waiver claim since I will not be tracking a running list of waiver priorities, so if a waiver priority gets burned on a RFA, then you will lose the player & the priority position.

There will be a deadline set for RFAs to be unconditionally released, but it will be closer to the start of the season, so we will have to contend with this through most or all of March.

More on RFAs later.

What date are we looking to draft/start?

I need to know to make sure I get on and put some waiver claims in.

Will have a better idea after the new mgrs complete their draft, but will let everyone know in advance.

All managers please cast your vote for the date to take the league active over on the Yahoo League Message Board.
