I got beat to the last Pirates spot by about 15 minutes.  So now I think I'll go with the 1905 White Sox

OK, this is my last team.... 1917 White Sox

You got 'em BUDDHA - thanks bud.

I will also take the 2007 Phillies

...and they belong to you as well.  Much appreciated!


Only ONE PHILLIES Spot Left!!!

1930 Brooklyn Robins please.

Alright, welcome aboard HOB - thanks!

I'll try the 1971 Orioles

You got 'em Bob - thanks for coming along for the ride!

I'm confused-how does the draft for league 9 work? If I choose my first team then how is the draft going to proceed for the other 2 teams? Can we choose from the whole list of league 9?

For the first pick, you can pick from any of the remaining teams from the original 72 listed ones that haven't already been selected.  After all of the first 24 are taken, then I believe both rounds 2 AND 3 will go in reverse order from round #1 (i.e. the person who picked the final of the first 24 spots (pick #24 overall) will get to pick first in round #2 (pick #25 overall) and first in round #3 (pick #49 overall)).

What I don't know is whether people that pick 2 teams in league #9 will select in the order they signed up or in order they are assigned (ex. RIZITOS is #1 and #13 but that is due to him having to be assigned in the NL/AL leagues, not because he signed up in that spot).  I don't know if Juice is keeping a separate list which will dictate the order which is separate from the assigned #.

OK, I think I have it...Give me the 1886 Wolverines

ZEPHYR1949 - Gotcha down - thanks again.  I'll set the draft board up whenever I can get some free time here at work or when I get home tonight.

BEV148 - BUDDHA is correct in his explanation for the draft order in the first paragraph.  As far as the second paragraph of BUDDHA's post, I'm placing RIZITOS' two teams in opposite leagues (N.L./A.L.) but his position in the draft will be in spots 1 and 3 (in the original 24).  I've left a mental memo to myself in the draft thread for League 9 where you can see I've got like the first five or six drafts spots already listed, which will remind me to put RIZITOS where he needs to be.

Yes, League 9 is a different animal from the other nine leagues in that it's a 24-owner draft with only the initial and two other rounds - as compared to the other leagues that are all 12 owner (or less) drafts with the initial pick and three other rounds.

Sorry for making this so confusing...
