Whither Cryptic Snow? I don't want to bogart his thread... but I sort of am.
If we can get some of the CFC league regulars, like jay said I am not worried about replacements each year. Taking over a crap team can actually be fun, I did it in another league. Good drafting and team management can get you back in the running the next year. (Something I did not do...)
Anyways some rule suggestions:
- Auction draft, open to suggestion on best way to ensure that people can't just hang on to their entire team forever. E.g. players must be resigned after 3 years, mandatory min salary for any contract extended, or salary increases across the board based on rank, or whatever.
- Large rosters and/or benches to max out team size so the league is challenging. CFC league rosters are good.
Suggestion: C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, CI, OF OF OF OF, UTIL, SP SP SP, PPPPPP, 2 DL spots, full bench;
- CFC league scoring but more of a mix in the counting stats and maybe remove one or two from each. That's up for discussion. El J I am offended you and BL take sole credit for that league's scoring rules ...j/k
Suggestion: R, RBI, TB, HR, SB, AVG, OBP, BB, K; QS, SV, HLD, CG, K, ERA, WHIP, K/9, K/BB
- Weekly roster changes
-forum (slow) auction draft so we can all participate, 24 hour rule before BAPAY, 12 hours late rounds, I think for bidding that would also mean we need a limited bidding period.... anyone done a slow auction draft before?
-use Yahoo (devil we all know)
