    If having two catcher spots screws things up, then just go with one. The catcher position is no big deal.

    So, under the current play, would things look like this?

    C
    1B
    2B
    3B
    SS
    Util.In
    OF
    OF
    OF

    17 total positions.

    I would go with 1 starting catcher. Reason being, look what happened to The Cat last year. He used up all his catching games by the All-Star break. At least this would give bad managers a chance to be competitive for the entire season;)

    And if we do that, I would also like to propose lowering rosters to 23, with an IR of 2 which can be used after the season starts.

    Let me ask a question: We left Sandbox because it sucked, why are we trying so hard to be like Sandbox? Why not modify the league rules to how we like it, not how Sandbox told us to be. Any changes can be put to a vote.

    Sandbox didn't suck. Their system was the best. :)

    We left because of the crazy peak-usage pay system they implemented.

    The scoring system at Sandbox was fine. It was the "members only" during peak ours that made us leave.

    What about # of players per roster? 25 with no IR, or 23 with 2? If you think about it, it's virtually the same, because with 25, your 2 injured playered would be sitting anyway. The only difference is shortening the draft by 2 rounds

    Ok, so Sandbox didn't suck. I still don't see why we must be a clone of them.:)

    OK, so have we worked all the bugs out? Is this it? Our final league rules? Cool.

    Anybody want to start the draft now? Or Friday, since I'm off Friday, Saturday, and Sunday?

    (Oh wait, I get more drafting done here at work than at home...)

    Yep, I saw. Neat-o. Everyone knows I'm just a figurehead, though. You're the man with the power. ;)

    Friday sounds good. Only two more days to go!

    Only for another 10-15 mins or so (getting late here). Go ahead though. If I don't get it tonight, I'll take a look tomorrow morning.
