Current season is beginning their playoffs..
Welcome Back...one of the best themes I ever took part in. SFord said I could bring it back from the dead...
Welcome to Spring. The birds are chirping, and soon I'll be on my way to Big Dick's Halfway Inn, located on Lake of the Ozarks. Nothing quite like one of their Minnow Shots and a beer, and where else but at the Home of the Best Head on the lake...

This league has 23 owners who each pick a player, the 24th owner chooses the park that we'll all be required to use. All 24 owners must use the same 23 players chosen, using the exact same season announced in the draft...You'll have some funds available to pick your 2 remaining players. They are your X-factors, you can pick any players from any season that don't put you over the cap.
We won't know exactly how much X-factor money we'll have left over until all of the 23 players are chosen...it could be a lot, or not very much at all... Last season was $14,405,850 left over.
Sometimes the players drafted here have funny names. Guys like Dick Burns, Dick Pole, Johnny Dickshot and Dick Cox have been known to show up here...

I will use random.org to determine draft order. The 24th owner picks our stadium...
When it is your turn to draft, you must pick a player within the given salary range, and that player must meet the PA or IP requirement(if applicable). The bench guys, as well as some of the RP's, don't have a requirement, just a salary range.
You may draft a player to play out of position, but they must have a minimum of 20 games played at the position. No other criteria as to their defensive prowess. In the draft center set the minimum games to 20, and check the Include secondary positions box.
Example: if Yogi Berra had a season in which he had 100 games played at catcher, 22 in the outfield, and 18 at first base, he could be drafted here either as a catcher or outfielder, not a first baseman...(as long as he was within the salary range, and met the minimum plate appearances)
You must declare which slot your player is filling, the season of that player, player's name, and his salary. All owners will use that same player.
Example: for the 200k-250k pitcher slot, 1993 Bryn Smith $227,139
Season's champ will determine next season's salary cap, as long as they return to defend their Crown...
