The Random Rookie Progressive League is looking for one owner as we go into the season 2 off-season draft. The available team was very competitive, finishing in 2nd place of its division and is poised to be competitive again next year.

In our first season, we drafted rookies from 1885, 1945, 1965, and 1995. These players will progress to 1886/1946/1966/1996 and then 1887/1947/1967/1997 etc. Each off-season, we'll be sprinkling in four additional rookie classes. In the upcoming draft, those classes will be 1916/1926/1996/2006. We don't know what the four rookie classes of season three will be until we finish the season two draft and get the league started. Each season selected will be blacklisted so that it can't be reused (unless and until we exhaust all available seasons).

To make roster compliance easier, we have structured it where the last digit in each player's season will end with the same number. In season one, all player-seasons ended in a "5". This season, all player-seasons will end in "6". Next season, all player-seasons will end in "7".....etc etc.

We have a good group of owners and now is a great time to sign up for this available franchise.
