Team Entered

I will ask a HOF owner to randomize the integers 1-26 for us.

If you're asking for a random HOF owner, here's my results from random.org:

Thanks mfumar!

Draft can begin now. I do not think we will need a clock. You are making only one selection - your 1980 team. Most of us will not have a chance at winning the league, so you may try to select a team whose RL winning percentage you can most improve. Once you make your pick, be sure to sitemail the next couple owners.

Baltimore

Well crap !!!!!!

Have to rethink now. Be along shortly. Have some stuff to get done here at work first.

Good decision. I can't wait to see who my 24th best team will be!!

Los Angeles Dodgers

I recommend that you ask owners to send a sitemail to the next 2 owners in the draft order, once they have made their selection, to give them a heads up that they are on deck.

I actually sitemailed the next 3 right after my pick.
