I love to play sports.  Easiest to set up and play is basketball if you have a ball and know a good local court.  Football only needs a ball, but you have to have at least 5-6 guys.  And that's still shabby.  Tennis is great.  I like frisbee but the same problem with football happens with frisbee.  Ice hockey is a blast. 

Golf though, is the greatest leisure game ever.  A nice sunny afternoon.  I may go today.

My name is Kris Dougherty and I am currently the GM of the Chicago Cubs. I had a short stint with the Giants in 2010, but had to leave because of school and work commitments. However, Dan reeled me back in last year when the Cubs opened up and even fo though I hate him for it, I am glad to be back.

I manage a comic book store and go to Purchase College, where I study Creative Writing and Literature. I am a Libra, a lifelong Angels fan and I absolutely despise hipsters and fantasy baseball. But as has been the case with some of the girlfriends I've had, no matter how miserable they make me, I just can't seem to get away. I also enjoy vintage 80's BMX bikes and both Dan's and Jake's mom, sometimes all at the same time, it really depends on how dangerous I'm feeling.

My name is Jason Harnack and I am currently the GM of the Chicago White Sox. Like Colby, I am a huge Pirates fan and I believe this year is the end of the curse and I will be alive to see a winning buccos team! Currently, I am still a sophomore in high school. I would like to pursue something in the field on engineering when I go onto high school. I love to camp and shoot things. I know I am not the most active trader in this league but honestly I don't really think constant trading helps a team but it more hurts it and I am a terrible trade negotiator. But come this trade deadline I plan to take my team either to the top if I am still in first place and if not continue to add to my many young pieces. GO EL TORRO!

I am Howe, 25 from Waterloo Canada. I started playing fantasy baseball when I was 12, found the management aspect to be very rewarding. I actually don't like watching baseball at all, instead I like to watch soccer / mma / hockey / badminton. I also like to play badminton, the fastest racquet sport on earth. Don't really have a favourite baseball player, I tend to follow TOR/TB more closely as I a fan of both Anthopolous and Friedman. I also work as an actuary but my area of practice is in P&C.

My name is Ernesto Quiroz.  I am the GM of the San Francisco Giants.  I am a lifelong Giants fan.  I have braved the winds of Candlestick Park as a youngster and I took my own kids to see many games.  I found the FGM on a web search and happened to see that the Giants needed a GM.  Colby approved my application after I told him that I remember going to Candlestick Park and seeing Vada Pinson rob Willie Mays with a diving catch on Bat Day (when they used to give real bats to the kids!)

I am an avid fan of the Giants, the 49ers, and the Golden State Warriors.  I live in Goleta, CA (next to Santa Barbara) and in June I will be retiring from the classroom after 34 years as a social studies teacher.  I have been in Southern California for the past 10 years, and thanks to DirecTV, I get a chance to follow all my favorite teams.

I am currently a Little League coach, and as a Giants fan, I have had to suffer to the ultimate indignation.  Three years ago, when I was given a team, I had a choice to be the manager of the Giants or the Dodgers.  As a Giants fan, is was a no-brainer, but as a grandpa, I had to think of my grandson.  My daughter married a Dodgers fan and my three grand kids are confirmed Dodgers fans.  I could not ask him to represent the Giants, so instead, I suffer the humiliation of wearing Dodgers gear two times a week when we play games. 

Go Giants!

My name is Roy Cankosyan, and I am the GM of the Texas Rangers.  I am a Yankees and Jets fan (yes I know it's not the common combination) and a huge fan of fantasy baseball and football.

I am an accountant, and I live in Blauvelt, NY.  I am married with three kids ages 4, 7, and 10.
