How is the draft done, is it by sitemail, or is it done by posting, or is it a live type draft?  What are the details?  I will join once I figure it out, if it is explained a little more...  what I need to know is exactly HOW the picks actually made?

I am going to set up a forum similar to this one and we will just copy and paste our picks. I'll give everyone 12 hours to pick but I REALLY hope everyone picks faster than that. Overnight I'll be more lenient. I'll also accept proxy picks too. I don't want to skip anyone but there will be ample opportunity to avoid skippage. 

So, the picks are made by sending you a site mail, stating who we want?  Right?  OK- then put me on the list!

Not exactly, but that can be a way to do it if an owner is going to be away from the computer for awhile. I'll get all of this set up soon, once we hit 20 owners. 

Does it matter HOW these HOF members got in the HOF?  Like some extreme cases, Dick Williams got in as a Manager, Clark Griffith got in as an Executive & Charlie Cominski got in as an owner, does that mean we can use them as a player (even though they were not worthy as players) or any players that played for them as well?  Im sure we could find 7 guys who played for them when they owned/managed the team...  Clark Griffith, Played for 23 years, Managed for 19 years & Owned the team for 35 years...  this would be a LOT of players to draw from!

I say we only take Players, that got IN the HOF, due to their Playing ability ONLY!  Of course, that would limit us to 208 players, but we are only taking 72 of them anyway, so who cares?

Selecting 3/4 HOF players & their teammates - this is going to be a TOUGH league, with such a SMALL cap, I didnt realize that it was only at $110M...  For a HOF league we should have at least $120-160M to play with!?

Yes, we can only draft players that were elected to the HOF as a player, in rounds 1-3.

This will hopefully make sure that the HoFers we draft, as well as the protest vote, are the stars of the league, in most cases. 

Is this league still going?  There has NOT been any activity in more than a week?

Yes, I'm still bumping it. 

If this gets off the ground I am in.

Welcome, thank you for joining. 

How many more guys do we need for this league to happen?

I signed up almost 2 weeks ago, how come I am NOT on the list on page 1?

You said you would join once you got an explanation for your questions. I never saw where you signed up for certain. I'll assume that you want in and add you.
