It totally depends on the players too.

Oddly enough, last season our nominated players had much better seasons on average and they also had much better teammates.

With one pick to go before I select, I've narrowed it down to four choices, but I can't decide which to take. Once I make up my mind, I fully expect ronthegenius to take my guy.

I.... must... empty... my.... mind....

Whew... my first choice is still there... Jedi-mind trick worked.

Let's draft my #4 starting pitcher and pick up my starting catcher and starting center fielder...

Holy #!!@#! I was all set to take the 56 Yanks and Berra and Mantle and wimped at the very last second to try and grab a Maddux.

Those mind tricks are freaky

Nothing warms my heart more than getting the RTG stamp of approval.

And I love the Princess Bride reference...

Might as well set myself up for draft position.

We'll take the delightful 200K 1968 Eddie Mathews and his sidekick Mr. Mclain

Just a couple of rule clarifications that the new owners may not fully understand.

* The blacklisted players only applied to the original 16 player nominations. Guys like Maddux and Pedro are eligible to be selected as a teammate.

* Players that were nominated may not be selected as teammates. For example, njbigwig (Kent) and Oli35 (E.Davis) both selected players who played on the 2001 SF Giants. Both may select '01 Barry Bonds. But Oli35 may not select '01 Kent.
