Scott (can he get on Yahoo or did they ban him as well?)

Ani, do you mean Sunday March 27th? I know you want to go to bed early since you get up at 3 AM to go and throw weights around but later may be better all around.

Amongst the Ani

You are correct F Me, I meant the 27th. We can start at 8pm if that works for everyone better. The 2 hour time change helps me and will get me in bed in time for my 3am wake up call.

Amongst the Ani

Scott, you suck donkey balls.

F Me In The Brain

We can just have Scott change the ESPN league type to H2H Cats and the scores can be 6-4 instead of 500-109.

Amongst the Ani

So Scott is to blame for that scoring system. Jesus H christ. We can stick with ESPN if we can have normal scoring.

Empty Glass

Can we get Scott soft banned? Maybe only post in this thread. It would make communication easier.

xavier mcdaniel

I'm in, we doing ESPN again?

lutwutch

I would be in again if we do categories and not points.

F Me In The Brain

Empty can continue being the secretary and go back to Banned Scott to ask if he will change to Categories on ESPN since the response seems to be pretty consistent on the format.

So far:

Message sent.

I'm taking a 10% cut just for being the middle man here

Empty Glass

Scott has changed it to category scoring...he needs to know how many categories.

F Me In The Brain

I like a balanced league, although obviously CG doesnt happen very often, so perhaps it slants a little toward Batting.
Example of a 6v6 league.
Could be tweaked based on what others want. Example - Some prefer Batting Average to Hits.

Batting:
Runs
Hits
HR
RBI
Steals
Walk

Pitching:
Win
CG
Save
K
ERA
WHP

We can always change that if what Scott picks is something everyone shits about. I think if you pick too many more than this that some of the stats are duplicitous and I do think whatever our stats are that we should try to find a near balance between Pitching and Hitting


What does everyone else think?

Empty Glass

Scott said it was set to league defaults. He was going to send out an email.

Note: I love how Ani was commissioner for about 25 minutes

Amongst the Ani

Fuck Scott. What he is going to do, read this and fire back a smart ass comment.

F Me, if you include hits and walks than batting average should be left out.

Empty, you need to take a 10% cut as that is the only way we you will see any money from fantasy baseball.

F Me In The Brain

Agree Ani. I prefer both Hits and Walks but it isnt much of a sticking point if others prefer BA. (Different guys are good at Hits and Walks so helps with drafting.)
However BA doesn't allow any credit for Walks. OBP would but not BA...BA just rewards for hits and penalizes for outs.

Empty Glass

Holy smokes, the language in that email...no wonder he's banned.

"Hello to everyone I like and Ani"

F Me In The Brain

Who is he calling a Butt Fuck?

Amongst the Ani

Hey now, I only embarrassed myself in the football league. For the record I beat Empty in baseball. That is normally the mark of embarrassment.

Had a better record. You lost to me head to head

Amongst the Ani

You going to draft all Phillies Empty? Show your love for your boys?
