No excitement -- just making sure all the little details have been accounted
for.

The correct balance for the Berliners is 198 for 14. I cut Chris Ray and
will be eating his $10 salary. This fact had been noted to Mark B., Andy
and Brad, if not others, and is perfectly consistent with the Constitution.
I apologize for creating any excitement over this issue.

Greetings;
A preliminary (very preliminary) check of rosters reveals that every
single
team kept 9 players. Depending on slotting of fellows like Mark B's Joba,
Brad's Luke H., and Mark K's Clement this is what I came up with;
AYM - 14/159
B Bombers - 14/192
Brats - 14/189
K 9 - 14/174
Lake M. Squid - 14/200
GOP - 14/162
'Torns - 14/187
R Hots - 14/192
Nukes - 14/217
Berliners (F*** Laffey!) - 14/208
H.D.s - 14/177
See y'all next week,
Rick

Gents,
The draft will be held at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday, March 15th at the offices
of Sidley & Austin. Mark B. to provide further information closer to the
date of the draft.
Roster Freeze Day will be Friday, March 7th at 8:00 p.m. Please send roster
freezes to USMLTrans at aol.com AND usmltransaction at aol.com If you'd like, you
may also distribute your lists to the entire league. Either Mark or I will
check the website on Friday night and will post the retention rosters that
same night. Please do your best to meet this deadline.
The CBSSportsline website appears to be a decent alternative to the
over-priced and under-performing All-Star Stats site. I hope that everyone
has had an opportunity to look at the site and get comfortable. Unless I
hear otherwise, I'm going to pay for the site and work with Mark B. to move
our data over to the new site. If you have any concerns about this please
let me know asap.
Just got back from Arizona where I saw the Cubs getting ready for the
glorious 2008 World Series campaign.
Let the games begin!!!

Gentlemen,
The votes are in. In the absence of my vote, it was a tie (5-5). Although
I support Rich's proposal and it would be adopted with my vote, I will be
voting against the proposal.
I encourage league members to follow Rich's and my example. Rich withdrew
his controversial proposal to use stats of players traded out of the league
and I have voted down a proposal I supported. If we can't generate
something approaching a consensus with respect to rules changes, we
shouldn't tinker with our success.
So....the rule proposal is defeated and the Constitution remains unchanged.
The draft will be held at the offices of Sidley & Austin on March 15th. I'm
not sure we've arrived at a decision regarding the starting time, other than
we'll be starting early. I'll propose 9:00 a.m. Let's see if we can arrive
at a consensus regarding the start time. If anyone thinks a different time
would be better, please respond to this email with your suggestion.
The constitution provides that roster freeze day is March 15. Obviously
that will need to be adjusted this year. Our roster freeze date has
historically been between 1-2 weeks prior to the draft. I will propose 5:00
p.m., Wednesday, March 5th, which splits the difference. As in years past,
with a pre-season draft date we have allowed teams a mulligan (i.e. the
opportunity to throw back one retained player) prior the the start of the
draft. To be clear, we have not allowed teams to change their minds with
respect to players that they hadn't chosen to retain. As with the draft
starting time, lets see if we can arrive at a consensus with respect to the
Roster Freeze Date. If anyone thinks a different freeze date would be
better, please respond to this email with your proposal.
I'd like to have the starting time and the freeze date established by the
end of the day tomorrow, so please respond asap. Thanks.
Jeff Winick
