1977 Draft on Monday, Free team Topic

Straight forward progressive league with 24 teams. Just ending the 1976 season. 1977 Draft starts Monday morning.

- No salary cap

- No Waiver wire

- No DH

- No DL/IR. If a player is out for a season he is re-entered into the draft when he returns.

- Veto is at 6.

- Draft picks can be traded one season in advance. You have this season and next to trade. Future draft picks become available to trade at the start of the next season.

- Draft order is set at the 120 mark, must have 30 wins or drop 5 spots in 1st round of draft. (If you had the worst record at 25 wins you would drop from the 1 spot to the 6 spot. )

- 25 keeper limit

- 6/4 AAA Below avg. AAA draft with real players once there are enough available players.

I have a really good league going right now and I have a few spots that have been open and need to be filled because we have a draft to do on Monday. I have had two of the teams posted and am now needing a third. Its late notice so Im going to give free teams to fill the open spots.

All three teams are good and have been able to compete and should not be much work.

I keep the league going at a good rate, drafts take place a week after the season is over.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nice try Coldfoot on the sitemail, you are one of the dysfunctional owners in this league. As usual, you make up your own facts, do name calling vs. simply asking the Commish for details of my leaving this league then put a block in and try to fire shots at me. I left the league, kept quiet but you had to start it again. With me out, you may have a chance to finish less than 50 games out of first for the 4th consecutive year.

Good Luck to Vern, the Commish and the ~10 other owners who are decent.
