That's not an option for me.

Cooleyvol · 02-28-2012, 09:47 AM

Thread title changed.

We have the 8 openings listed above with 5 who expressed interest yet to claim their teams. 4 other openings could be had if the interest is there.

Forums Link and you may PM me here (or there) with your email and three team preferences.

maxxavier · 02-28-2012, 10:08 AM

I'd be more interested if there were more teams (30 ie. MLB or 32).... I won't do it if there's only 20 teams and MAYBE will join if there's at LEAST 24.

And I three, am shocked that there's not more interest...

I don't follow your logic, but ok. Best of luck.

There must be interest. This thread is #4 sorted by views in the three weeks its been posted in the entire Online Leagues forum.

Come on folks. We're talking about < $20 every three months with a shot at winning upwards of $100 bucks.

I'd rather focus on the positive.

We have 15 owners signed up to pay ~$18 bucks every 3 months with a chance to win from 20-120 bucks PLUS engage in a solid league with great ownership and banter.

I don't know where all the 'writing a novel to get bonus points' comes from, but let me reiterate that there will be no such feature to this league.

What we will offer is minors and feeder leagues coupled with a great concept and kick ass website and league features.

Thanks to all who have joined/shown interest, I appreciate it.

To those with no interest, I understand and know that you have a right to feel as such, but please don't talk down what we're trying to set up as a group.

I'm very interested. Our league has had some discussions about a cash league but it's not something we're going to entertain at this point in time.

I do have a concern though, the sim length of 15 days. In order to have the utmost control of my team, I use 7 day lineups exclusively. Is there any chance this league setting would be changed?

Getting through a seast 7 days at a time would take too long, MB.

With that, The MoneyBall Syndicate reveals its website.

A few tweaks left to be done on the topbar links, but for the most part, everything is operational.

Continue to apply by PMing me with name, email, and team preference (we have 5 clubs left unclaimed as I don't have the application operational yet.

Now that is sharp! Thanks.

Ok guys, we need 4 to make this happen. .20 per win gets you involved in a one of a kind league.

We're in the final push to fill our last 3 spots so that we can start to draft our clubs.

A short form of the rules:

.20 per win is your fee for the next season.

Our payout pool will be 324.00 and is paid out to 7 different categories (1 being the most improved team in each league)

This all comes down to ~18.00 per season (every 3 months real time), so we're talking about a measly average of 6 bucks per month to have a shot at winning much more and having some fun along the way.

progen · 03-08-2012, 07:06 PM

C'mon guys, one of the longest running posts out there, 35 days and counting, surely we can find three more owners??????

waltwa · 03-08-2012, 07:20 PM

We might never find 3 more guys. this is a special league that takes a $ committment. For me it looks to be a special league but not everyone looks at it that way. The fact that a lot of people are waiting for 13 to come out also may play a role. But the other fact is that online leagues are join and quit for a lot of people and this one calls for a financial committment (however small).

A thought i have is - wait a week more and then go with 16 teams if those last 3 are not found. As the league progresses more teams can be added (i think). But as i said i am looking forward to it however long the wait is.
