No problem. Had it been personal cell or email, I would have set my torch on fire to pair up with your pitch fork.

Why should he take down publicly available information easily found by doing a Google search?

I got room for one more team in the league I commented about earlier in the thread. If you want to join it, shoot me a PM with your email address and I can get the invite out to you asap.
This thread seems ot have gained no steam or traction.
I still need 7 more teams to fill out FCB league #2 , so if anyone else wants to join, just respond to this thread or shoot me a PM.

Sting
X-Pac/1-2-3 Kid
Mick Foley

Stone Cold Steve Austin
Ultimate Warrior
Hulk
British Bulldog...
I am hoping to stay awake long enough to catch an hour or so of the game.
As a huge fan of Kershaw's (but owning him in ZERO fantasy leagues), I hope he has a monster opening day. I also hope Kemp stays healthy all season, Goldschmidt continues to beast, Parra has an awesome defensive play and...
Honestly, it doesn't bother me in the least.
I do not prospect and do not collect modern rookie cards (depending on when "modern" started), so it has never caused me much anger.
Don't get me wrong, I do miss the days of, here is a player's first professional card (Donruss, Topps, Fleer, Upper...
A little bump for the thread.
I will be running league 2 for Chris.
He wanted ten teams, any stats, any scoring, so I went with the following:
Roto - 5 x 5 - R, HR, RBI, SB, OPS x QS, SV, K, ERA, WHIP
28 man rosters (13 batters, 10 pitchers, 5 bench, 2 DL)
Waivers - FAAB ($200 per team)

The baseball HoF has rapists, womanizers, racists and a possible killer or two.
I don't think his outside the ring and post career life should be brought up, but the HoF is for what they did IN the ring, not out of it, so I wouldn't let him killing his family and then himself keep him out.
You...
After reading some of these posts, I am shocked at the guys who AREN'T in the HoF already. I would have assumed Dean Malenko would be in, Macho Man should have been in already,
Owen Hart and Chris Benoit should be in and the same goes for one of my top 3 favorite wrestlers of all time, Sting...
I'll use the same letter of my last name, K:
C- King Kelley
1B- Harmon Killebrew
2B- Jeff Kent
3B- George Kell
SS- Don Kessinger (SS was pretty light in the K's)
OF- Ralph Kiner
OF- Al Kaline
OF- Willie Keeler
SP- Sandy Koufax
SP- Jim Kaat
SP- Clayton Kershaw (Had to get him on the list)
RP-...
I am definitely an Astros homer, but seeing Springer as low as he is on this list is pretty shocking.
Don't get me wrong, I am VERY happy to see 3 Astros in the top 25, but I surely thought he would be at LEAST a top 15 guy.
Jaypers, what is your opinion on that ranking?
I understand you apologized for being preachy, but what is bolded you could use as reasons to not even be in this hobby.
Everyone collects what they want to collect, because it makes them happy. Think of all those cards you have sitting in a box, losing large amounts of their resale value, just...
Started in 89/90 with cartoon cards, then got into baseball cards around 92 after getting a giant book that showcased every 91 Tools or Donruss card, I can remember which.
I've collected ever since then, with busy periods and slow periods mixed in.

No, no worries man. Take your time, there is no rush on my end.
Wish you had found more than four cards for your collection though.

If you wouldn't mind, I'd like a look at your 1st doubles list when it's done.
I don't exclusively collect any Astros, but I do try to pick up lots of base/parallels/inserts when I can and afford to.

I completely agree with Ryan here.
If the reasoning behind your decision is "this is the way we've always done it" (as in, never having a 100% HOF vote), then your reasoning is wrong. Just because it's never happened, doesn't mean it never should.
There have been plenty of players who should...
