Suggestion for "League of Champions" - Page 4

JoshSamBob · 01-05-2005, 01:24 PM

You can count the EBM (www.elitemanagers.com) in for this one. We'll figure out who goes when we need to.

Steve T · 01-05-2005, 01:29 PM

The sooner you nominate a GM, the better. We are not going to decide how many teams the league will have, until we know how many GMs we will have.

As of now, only 4 GMs have been nominated.

Ford Prefect · 01-05-2005, 01:49 PM

ISBL can confirm that our OAK GM will represent us

Steve T · 01-05-2005, 01:53 PM

I already talked to him--Thanks!

Ford Prefect · 01-05-2005, 03:57 PM

didn´t know that

snnort · 01-06-2005, 10:51 PM

The Crash Davis Baseball League would like to participate and I would be willing to help with the league as well. I can set help with news/article writeup as well as a number of other things.

The CDBL is run by a Commissioner, Director of Baseball Operations, AL and NL Presidents, and a Director of Recruitment. The five form a committee to help solve deeper league issues. It's a great system that has worked for us. The league has been around since 2000 and has come up with a number of rules and online content that has been used in many, many other leagues throughout the OOTP community.

Mile_High_GM · 01-07-2005, 09:29 AM

I have posted this in the tMBU message boards and expect that we will want to send a rep.

Will contact you as soon as I know who this will be.

Thanks for the great idea!

Matteo · 01-07-2005, 11:12 PM

I will aks my league if they are interested :-)

Cuss · 01-07-2005, 11:45 PM

very cool idea, cant wait to see it in action. it's almost like the world series of OOTP.

RBLwebguy · 01-08-2005, 02:48 PM

Just PM'd you to save a spot for WLB! How are things moving along with this? Web site or anything? Need a bit of help?

IatricSB · 01-08-2005, 02:52 PM

Hopefully will get the beginnings of a web site up with message board, etc. We've formed a committee of three (so far) that have been dicussing the direction of the league and the beginning of the rules. NealMusser is working hard to get leagues involved and get an idea on the count so we can create a league file (not sure how many teams yet so I can't create the file).

halofan26 · 01-08-2005, 02:54 PM

i will have 7 GMs to send you so you can add 7 to the team list of ours

RBLwebguy · 01-08-2005, 04:46 PM

I have 2 and PM'd Neal already

MLBCOOTP · 01-09-2005, 04:14 PM

The MLBC OOTP would like to nominate Chris Ramsey, our Blue Jays GM, to this great idea of a league.

Has NEVER finished lower than 91 wins in a season, and this is thru 1901-1908.

We are confident that he will represent us well in this league.

kudos to you guys for this idea, its awesome.

I can be contacted for Chris's contact info when u need it.

Thanks.

Crackerjack · 01-09-2005, 04:56 PM

The CJBL would like to nominate

Darren Hickman dhick118@uga.edu 4 time league champ with is Mets
Mark Deayton mdeayton@bigpond.com 2 time league champ with Houston
Jay Froude jfroude@kc.rr.com 2 time champ with Whitesox
Knuckleball tsuyoshi@postmaster.co.uk 2 time league champ with Boston

All 4 of these owners are usually in the hunt for the grand prize every season.

Also not sure who is representing the ABA but I have 3 WS titles with my Greys. Too bad I cant win crap in my own league I commish, fricking cheaters.

Steve T · 01-09-2005, 04:57 PM

I will start catching up with this either tonight or tomorrow.

I live on the Pocono Mts., and we got hit very hard with ice, getting over 2 inches of it. Majority of the Poconos has been without power since Thursday..I just got mine back not too long ago.

If you want to be nominated, just let your league commish know about the league.

Steve T · 01-10-2005, 11:18 AM

Okay..I think I have everything under control now. As we stand, it seems to me that we have 7 given General Managers, with at least 10 more coming within the next day or so. The faster we get the GMs, the better, as we can not begin to work on a league file, without knowing how many teams we are going to have.

Stacy, Mike, or tibbotobbins, if you have Excel, and want to see who we have in the league, just let me know, and I will send you the spreadsheet that I am using to keep track of everything.

Cyclone792 · 01-10-2005, 01:01 PM

Just wondering if you're still holding this to a one person max representation per league since other leagues have nominated more than one person. A handful of leagues I'm in that may be participating really do have in upwards of three or four very deserving owners.

Steve T · 01-10-2005, 01:11 PM

Only 1 GM can be nominated per league

If a league nominates more than 1 GM, then I will decide which GM enters the League of Champions.
