I just won my fantasy baseball league. I am back to back champions and also won the basketball league last year I do with the same guys. I'm really happy because the winner gets like $170. Well now in October we start basketball in my league again and in the SportsHoopla league. Can't wait. Nos do we still need people in the bball league? We can ask the new guys if interested.

We have done a playoff matchup voting in our past drafts. However we noticed that the voting has gotten tainted lately. Last draft during the Championship game we had a outside poster ask everyone vote for Team 2 who was currently like 7 votes behind. After that post Team 2 was up 2 votes. Nos and I will figure it out but also would like ideas from you guys.

I have a baseball simulator (Baseball Mogul) that allows for a custom league that can be simulated 100 times or more (no fluke WS winner). It could take a bit to get every players highest ratings and put into the system, but once that happens, it only takes about half an hour to run the season 100 times.

Does it have every baseball player or just recent ones? Maybe we do the regular poll voting till be get the final 2 then we use your simulator?

Since we all have had 2 days off from drafting I don't want to hear that you can't find anyone. You all should have been taken this time and putting together a list. Yes you were released Friday from school and the teacher didn't assign any homework for the weekend but that doesn't mean you shouldn't study for the quiz today once the Valedictorian (Mr. Hockey) selects.

Totally different topic. Anyone want to do a Yahoo Fantasy Hockey league?

Baseball Mogul has every player from 1900 to current year of release. Mine is 2009, but I also have 2011 somewhere (though since we're dealing with 1960s-1990s, that shouldn't be an issue).

Baseball Mogul Simulation Game

Thanks Stoke for that site.

So how would you like the decision on who has the best team. 1) But everyone's team in the sports mogul and let it show the winner 2) Hold a playoff voting poll 3) Combing both the previous 2 suggestions. Hold the playoff voting until we get to the championship game then do the sports mogul.

I dont much like the simulator thing, it kinda takes the playoff process away from us, which for some is the most fun part.

We can do both the playoff for every round but the championship. The championship matchup we use the simulator to predict the winner there for we have a accurate winner without someone winning because they are most popular or someone posts to vote for a certain team. :L

Who mentioned anything about the basketball league? I asked if anyone wanted to do a hockey league.

As long as the list is enough to cover your next pick should everyone who picks before you takes a guy on your list the list doesnt have to be 10.

Is it still the weekend or a holiday I am unaware of?

FYI I have a feeling Hockey will be a no show. His first time slot is from 11:30-12 and his second is tonight from 5:30-6. He is lucky that we are on the 2nd half of the time slots because he properly would be missing the first time slots. At 6:01 I hope we have everyone logged on or have peoples lists. I currently only have 2 lists. Thank you Bums and Doobie for submitting your lists.

Seriously Nos that was a pointless post. He picks in 8 picks. What does it hurt if he has 2 extra guys on his list. :L 8 picks, 10 picks, 2 picks hell if we get any player on a list I will be happy unless it is a EHB type of list. He had more guys already taken on his list then available guys but at least he submitted a list. He is awesome to draft with just like everyone we have done these drafts with except Bums. That guy is a douche and just loves to start trouble. :tongue:
