Keepers


Hello Noses,

We're all signed up except for Jeff who contacted me yesterday and asked me to resubmit the invitation. He should be online soon. As I said in an earlier email, we will be posting keepers on the league blog. (http://boneynoses.blogspot.com/). While I have really enjoyed the posts from the Old Russians, I'm a Werewolf Baby!, and Arch Stanton, there is a point of order that needs to be cleared up.

The draft is March 28th at 2:00pm CDT. I think we should set a deadline for keeper submissions two weeks prior so that people can switch from looking at porn to looking at possible draft scenarios while at work. Remember that you can keep 3 players. These players must have been on your team before the trade deadline and stayed on your team through the end of the season. The league functionaries will vet your selections.

The problem here is that teams who have posted to the blog may have one of those guys blow out his knee before the deadline. Do they still have to keep that guy because they are premature technophile ejaculators? No. Whichever three players are posted for your team at 12:01am Saturday, March 14th will be your keepers. At that point, a list will be compiled and submitted throughout the league.

Your responsibility does not end there.

YOU MUST RANK YOUR PLAYERS BEFORE THE DRAFT, PLACING YOUR THREE KEEPERS AT THE TOP OF THE LIST.

We all know how much it sucks to get kicked out of the draft when it's your turn for some reason. This is a fail safe to make sure the first three rounds run smoothly. Please, take this seriously.

How can this league do anything seriously with the likes of Wolf and Ass-Head among us?

Also, is it possible to trade keepers among ourselves pre-draft? Like, I'd love to get rid of the pestilence that is Jimmy Rollins. Who's got Junior Griffey?

There's always a gentleman's agreement. KGJ for Rollins, sounds like a steal.

I don't think we should mess with that right now. I'm in the process of arbitrating some trades that involve draft picks and switching draft positions right now in my less civilized league, and i'm not sure we want to throw the apple of discord into the boney mix just yet. we'll consider it for next year.
