1995 Fantasy Draft

Talk of the Town · 11-16-2004, 01:36 AM

http://playbackboys.com

-- New league depicting "what if" the 1994 strike had turned out differently, starts in 1995
-- Mon/Tor/Col/Fla contracted, leaving us with 24 teams (6 divisions of 4)
-- Full 30-40 round fantasy draft to start out the league. Draft the likes of a 25 year old Ken Griffey Jr., or a 23 year old 5 star Pedro Martinez
-- 100 million dollar salary cap/even revenues to prevent the future Yankees/Red Sox salary cap debacle
-- Lots of articles, including various fictional league writers

We will pride ourselves through activity and writing articles, so if you are the type who likes to write, this is your league. Please send an email to commish AT playbackboys DOT com if interested in applying. The fantasy draft will start a day or two after the league fills.

I'd be interested in running the Expos franchise if you still have them open.

He said in his post Montreal was one of the contracted teams. Along with Toronto, Colorado and Florida.

Jeremy Weimer · 11-16-2004, 02:47 AM

Nice looking league by the way.

CubbyFan23 · 11-16-2004, 02:57 AM

Wow I'm blind

I'd still be interested in another team though.

Jeremy Weimer · 11-16-2004, 03:02 AM

It happens. Most of us miss a line of text here and there.

Talk of the Town · 11-16-2004, 02:16 PM

Spots are filling fast, as 8 GM's have signed up already! Available teams:

Boston Red Sox
Chicago White Sox
Kansas City Royals
Oakland Athletics
Anaheim Angels
Texas Rangers
New York Mets
Philadelphia Phillies
Chicago Cubs
Cincinnati Reds
Milwaukee Brewers
St. Louis Cardinals

Remember we are fantasy drafting, so it really doesn't matter which team you choose, as you get to pick your own players.

HOw can you get rid of the canadian teams? they were two of the best in the majors in 1994?!

Other than that, sounds like fun times

izman1999 · 11-16-2004, 05:53 PM

I would be interested in running the Los Angeles Dodgers franchise.

I am currently in 2 online leagues now and was the longtime owner of the New York Yankees of the MLB1966.

Canada is just a colony of the United States. We can do as we please! hehe

Jeremy Weimer · 11-16-2004, 10:31 PM

Maybe he took them out because he doesn't like those teams. It's his league so he can do what he wants really.

canadiancreed · 11-16-2004, 10:40 PM

that's what I figured, although it'd be like removing the Yankees and the Red Sox in a 2004 sim.....removing two high caliber teams and nto really makign ti an historical sim....oh well

as for the colony of the US crack.....nah, not worth it

Cowboys3356 · 11-17-2004, 12:40 AM

I was just kidding about the colony statement of course! lol
