Thanks, RF.

I am excited about this. I like different and challenging. This is both.

If necessary I could take a NL team to get us closer to 24 teams.

Knock yourself out.

I definitely encourage owners to take an AL & NL Team.

OK, I'll add a NL squad. Put me down for the Atlanta Braves either 89 or 90

RF I'll bite with the '92 Mariners who were still in the Kingdome and payroll without twists is $76,634,823 

Looks like we had a good day.
Were at 20
with fatboydad maybe taking a NL
grayfoxx maybe taking a team
uptowngbv picking his team
This will put us at 23 only 1 to get to 24
and 7 to get to 30

I will do a second team to get to 24. Will decide which in the AM

My second team will be 1992 L.A. Dodgers.

ok never done a progressive type league, but this does sound interesting.  I have read and re read all this two times, so I think I am getting the hang of it.  I would try the 1995 Toronto Blue Jays if they are still available and you need a AL team. thanks 

RF I'd be interested in trying the 1916 pirates for an NL team. They are at $61,037,588 and are in Forbes Field

RF, what was the ruling on teams throwing games to get a better draft position?

None - To just let everyone have fun.

There are way too many aspects of this league to monitor
Drafts - Upgraded players - Players vs. LHP - RHP
WAA AAA players - You will need to use 3 from the start
and 1Zeppieri1 also 3 from the start.
The only aspect we can actually monitor
Will be the TRADES!

Without turning this into a - this owner should have:
upgraded this player
drafted this player
played this player instead of benching him.

Do what is best to win and have fun.
Sacrifice your Queen if you have to.
Be the King of Season 7.

NY Highlanders as my AL team-not sure which year yet.

The cheating thing just bothers me so it is best I duck out so  good luck with the league guys.

Time to go plead with Ed.
I'm not sure what he wants me to do?

Is it cheating?
If an owner does not upgrade his best player for Season 1
If an owner tries different players during the season VS. LHP / RHP
If an owner does not draft the player you think is best
If an owner uses his 12 AAA players, some will have to use 2 or 3 immediately
If an owner does not only use his top pitchers to start games

How would I monitor all that, without alienating someone

Play how you want, have fun, and win however you can.
I think Ty Cobb and Pete Rose would agree.
