Hi all,
I'm Dick Granade, GM of the SF Giants. I may well be the oldest, at 64, in the league. I'm retired several years now, and as yet have no grandchildren to dote over, which leaves my plenty of time to enjoy fantasy. I've been involved with fantasy baseball several years, though this is my first experience in a league such as this league.
Never been a Giants fan, but I did enjoy watching the likes of Mays, McCovey and Marichal play in their prime.
Looking forward to a fun time in the league and learning along the way. See, you can teach an old dog new tricks!

When to high school in New York and Connecticut and did my University years at the University of Tulsa, and Oklahoma State university back in the 70".

I just started reading a book about the Tampa Bay Rays management actually. It's called "The Extra 2%."

Let's see, I guess I am middle of the road here being 33 years old. I am married and father of soon to be 2 teenage daughters. I live in Illinois in a super small town compared to some of you with a population of under 9000 people (If you think that is small, when I was in high school I lived in a nearby town of 100 people). Went to college for almost 5 years but did not finish, some of that was only part time. Family comes first and that is the reason I did not finish. I manage a restaurant now. I think when I grow up that I would like to give farming a try. Love the country, not a fan of big cities other than the four lane roads which feels like I am driving for Nascar. I am a huge Cardinals and Fighting Illini fan. I enjoy most sports but baseball and college football are my favorite. I am also not a fan of East coast teams ie.. Jets, Patriots, Red Sox, Yankees, Duke and North Carolina basketball (although I do like Coach K, he is from Illinois) to name a few. I also root for any team that plays against the U of Michigan, unless Michigan makes it to a bowl game then I want them to represent the Big 10 well. I have been a Marlins fan since their creation and even skipped school to watch the expansion draft back in '92. I hoping for their sake the new stadium brings in some more fans, otherwise I may talk to the owner and try to move them here where I would get about 9000 to show up for a game.

Hi everyone,
My name is James and I'm the new DBacks owner. I'm from Boston and support all the local teams. I do have a bit of a soft spot for the DBacks having cheered hard for them during the world series to beat the yanks.
Seems I'm about midlle of the road age wise among the group, but have been playing fantasy for almost a decade. Typically I only place baseball and love deep leagues so I am looking forward to this one, especially as it seems there are lots of good owners here.

Hi guys,
My name is Leonardo, 32, and I'm from Brazil. I'm a huge DiamondBacks fan and I'm the new Reds GM. I know most from the big leagues and I'll enjoy my time here to learn about these players from the little leagues. I'm a very competitive manager and love fantasy leagues.

Hey everybody,
Thought I would take a minute to introduce myself.
I am Cris, the new owner of the Royals. I am 37, married with a wonderful family and live in Columbus, OH. I became a Royals fan growing up in KC. Between KC and Columbus, we lived in Salt Lake for a period of time. This (and FBF) is my first foray into dynasty leagues, but I have been playing fantasy baseball for quite some time off and on.
Looking forward to being a part of this league. Looks like a great one!
Thanks,
Cris

Hey guys. My name is Nick. I'm from small-town central Minnesota. I've been a die hard twins and vikings fan my whole life. Unfortunately, neither have won a championship in my lifetime.. I am presumably one of the youngest here at 18. (I was born in '92 and my twins won it in '91!!!) I've been playing in dynasty leagues for about 3 years now and love it. I probably put a bit too much time into my baseball research, but what can I say? I'm a little obsessed. I've always dreamed of being a real MLB GM one day, but I probably won't pursue it!
I am in my first year at the University of North Dakota working on an accounting degree. Unfortunately for me, I'm not a hockey fan. Here in Grand Forks, hockey is a huge deal and everyone cheers on their Fighting Sioux.
I'm the GM of the Minnesota Twins (by some dumb luck). I am very open to trades and would entertain any offer! And I don't consider trading away Joe Mauer as a salary dump! He'll come back strong, mark my words!!!

Raiders, Atlanta both should have traded back if they were gonna do what they did. IMO
April 26, 2024, 10:41:23 AM

Atlanta could have fleeced Minny and let them draft JJ #6 then still get Penix before Denver/LV

49ers made a smart pick IMO.

Their WRs need contracts and Deebo has been used a lot for a guy his size already.

Plenty of Defense left. Only 9 guys on D got drafted last night. NONE of them will be 1st rd picks in LIVE. In fact i dont think a D player gets drafted at all in LIVE till round 3.

If you want a S or CB @BAB your Niners will get one.

April 26, 2024, 07:35:23 PM

If you got ANY extra loot laying around. Pick #33 will definitely be a WR. Probably got to wager $5 to win $1 by now but the line was -400 last i looked.

Dont think of it that way. So many guys get hurt. The NFL moves so fast. Think of your players as commodity even if they are backups or rookies that arent playing much.
Yesterday

Any player that plays at all has LIVE value. It's the GMs here that determine what that value means to them or is worth in a trade.
