You have an easier fix? Let's say in the Hockey draft, you passed on Bobby Orr and Gordie Howe twice because you thought they were ineligible, and then someone took them in the 3rd round. Could you level that?

I would make damn well sure that they couldn't be taken.

Also no one taken here is a Orr or Howe.

I say we just live with it.

The front page is where the rules are usually listed. Show them to me. There are a bunch of teams listed, and I have no problem with any player who played for that team name
And that's crap. Mathewson is every bit Orr or Howe IMO. Lefty Grove as well. Cy Young certainly was.

If it's a restart my vote would be for only current teams and cities. I thought that was pretty clear when we started since it was all listed in the full draft as the current teams

Well, if you guys wanna restart you'll need to find someone else to join us cuz i'm all but certain Smitty will remove himself.

I wouldn't remove myself, I'd rather start over than read anymore of the , "well I would've..." Stuff. I'd rather be done with this one than read those.

If Grove can't be an A, I don't think Cabrera can be a Marlin. So I don't have any players. A restart would be just fine. (Cleveland, Boston and Tampa Bay have changed names, it's the same franchise. Oakland, ATL, Brooklyn, LA, Miami and SF have moved, same franchise.)

So that's how it works? Draft has a clear unfair start and we can't just restart it? I remember the BS we used to have, and how many people quit before we started posting rules. I have no interest in playing if we're going back to those days

I don't think you were bitching, I think it was unclear... I don't have a problem either way, the problem isn't with a guy like me who doesn't know where and who, it's the guys that do... I like my players, I'd like to keep them, but if a handful of guys got skipped or what have you because of uncertainty it's pretty messed up... We're only 3 picks in... I say majority rules, and if we restart it has to be what Milk said about current team and location or there's no point in restart...

Why couldn't Miggy be a Marlin? They never moved location

I have no problems restarting why do I care I aint winning anyhow. I just don't wanna lose Smitty, hes good people and I've known him like 8 years and he's always been cool. Also I can do without you continually threatening to quit if things don't happen as you want them too.

Yeah they did.

Changed stadiums and went from being Florida to Miami. The Devil Rays became the Rays. Boston changed names and the Athletics moved, twice. (They've went backs and forth from As to Atletics and back several times.). The Indians (who are named inn honor of aSpiders player) were named three different things before their current name.

I don't care if I win these things. I do them for fun. If we don't restart I'll trade my three guys to anyone for their next pick. (3 people, one pick a piece.). If that stops the bitching, cuz this isn't fun.

If Cy You g wasn't a Boston Red Sox, Miguel Cabrera wasnt a Miami Marlin.

Not sure if Aubrey Huff was a Ray for 5 years or not. I'll nitpick my own team, I don't care.

Changing stadiums doesn't mean changing location. They were always in Miami. The Rays certainly never changed locations because I've been watching the yankees play in that shithole stadium far too long

Tampa changed names, just like Boston.

It's my turn to bitch for no reason....
