Dave Letterman tribute league? Topic

Any interest?

I was thinking something appropriately irreverent and silly: 

Use players from 1980 to the present (Dave's years as a talk show host).  Must draft veteran utility infielder Buddy Biancalana and pitcher Terry "Fat Tub of Goo" Forster.

Playoff teams will be determined by the following: Buddy Biancalana's RBIs + Terry Forster's Wins and Saves.  Tie-breaker can be Wins, then Expected Percentage.

Cap not too high (I prefer the early, low budget Letterman).  Maybe 80 or 90M.

Thoughts? Suggestions?  

I'm kind of busy now and also involved in two prog drafts, not a lot of time to commish a league.  If anyone wants to grab this and run with it, count me in.

What? No "Uncle Floyd" Memorial League?

The Uncle Floyd Show is a New Jersey thing, the rest of you wouldn't understand ("I don't avoid, I watch Uncle Floyd"). 

Meanwhile, here is Billy Martin and George Steinbrenner on Letterman:

How did Billy refrain from sucker punching Letterman, or at least kicking some dirt on him?

He was strangely restrained for Billy.

Forster was a good sport.
