30 Year MLB Draft : CHAT

[UK Cowboy]

So divisional draft? 4 from each division. 1 wild card pick that can be picked at any time on a stadium, whoever picks their stadium first will have home field? 1920 - 2000? Players first stat has to have been between those seasons.

Other ideas?

Thoughts?

Make a list, check it twice, let's play

I prefer decades if we are going to use stadium. But I know nos is trying to avoid pre 1920s and current players.

Pre 20's and current are the funnest to pick

Hey, i'm open to other ideas. Today is the first day of me not being batshit busy!

How about an open 50% draft? Any era, and of the starters, 9 position and a named starter for DH(if you have a DH, you should name the position player), 5 of those 10 can be HOF. Of your 10 pitchers, you can have 5 HOF. The other 4 bench players must be non HOF. Only the starter who doesn't hit can be HOF, if you choose

Although I got called for Jury duty! Dammit! Next Tuesday the 15th. I pray i'm not picked again. I had jury duty a few years back, got picked and was jury foreskin! SUCKED

Last time I had jury duty I filled out that little questionnaire deal. One of the questions was "What is your favorite movie". I put Runawy Jury or 12 Angry Men.....I got picked anyway.

Last time I was up to get picked, it was a junkie that ran over and killed a lady trying to evade police. His attorney asked if I had an issue with the death penalty. I said in this case, I'd supply the rope. I was home by lunch

 

[Nosferatu]

Hammer just informed me the winners of our last draft have been paid. Congrats again to Femur, Stoke and WLK, great job fellas...

 

[Nosferatu]

Side note: Man the Cowpokes and Deadskins suck! Great ending though...

 

[Nosferatu]

Also, whoever is calling the plays for Dallas should be fired. With this current offense at least one play every set of downs should go to Dez, I don't care if he's triple teamed!

Both OC's should be fired. I can tell you what Dallas is running 75% of the time before they snap the ball. Love it when they take Dez off the field on 4th and one and pack in like a rugby team and slam it up the middle for a two yard loss. The best part was the idiot announcers dogging the Dallas OL. If you watched the play, the OL had fired off and drove the DL into the end zone, but the Skins had 11 in the box with no receivers in the set. Dez outside takes away 2 defenders, Witten off the line takes 2 or it's a TD, Street, who is 6'5'' takes 1. Then your OL and FB can fire off and the RB actually has space to cut. Absurd playcalling. Of course, I saw the Skins do the same stupid shit

How bout this.. 1900-2010's, 12 decades, each team gets 2 players from each decade, first game played

I think we did something like that already but again unless we come up with something better that'll work

Never been called, probably on some black list. My wife was called, but had pneumonia. She looked, sounded and felt like death warmed over. Prosecutor looked at her like she was insane. She was sent home immediately.

we did, and it was a massive issue with some not being able to pick players from their decade, and we had a walk away (I think). Granted in that case, it was 1920-1990 with 3 from each decade, but still. Oh, yeah, we also added a team restriction as well, which really complicated it. Now, since I won that one, I'm all for it

I dont think it would be an issue now. These guys know all the players now. Best part of it

I think it was the team restriction that hurt. People drafted 70s-90s early and didn't leave enough space for the the teams that existed earlier and just ran out of spots to put those early players. Most trades and adds/drops I've seen in a draft.

 

[Nosferatu]

The team issue is what messed that other draft up.

 

[MilkSpiller22]

Here is my idea, and i hope Nos allows it... Bucket with decades

1(1870,1880,1890)
2(1900,1910,1920)
3(1930,1940,1950)
4(1960,1970,2010)
5(1990,2000,1980)

5 picks per bucket

one pick will be stadium(a stadium can only be picked once, but if a team moved into a new stadium then multiple stadiums can be taken for a single team)


for match ups the team that picks their stadium earliest gets "home field advantage" home field advantage is only due to stadium and not about fans coming to games...
