Yeah William's and Faltine fucked up because they were the major instigators in the situation. The catcher had no need to get back at Antico to apply the tag though. His movement backs Antico and standing over Antico is what set William's off. Daly must have said something pretty bad or just wouldn't shut up after being told to by an umpire. If he was tossed just for the typical shit talking that occurs during those "fights" then that's bullshit.
The money aspect is also not just about the head coach salary. Tech likely would have matched whatever Texas offered for Beard. Tech, however, probably can't match what Texas is willing to pay for Beard's assistants and support staff.
Beard didn't take a pay cut to go to Texas. He's getting paid more. The perceived pay cut is because he got a one time bonus of $750k this last year. That's a one time bonus, not a yearly bonus.
The league setting currently say we are using Avg as a stat but that will be changed to OPS when I get to my actual computer. Default settings have 4 bench spots and 3 IL spots. I feel like that is a bit much and dropping each of those by 1 makes the league more competitive, thoughts?

That's a link to join the league. Should also get an email invite.
Well shit guys it doesn't let me do a league with 9. Have to have 10, or drop to 8. So giving it the night to see if we get a bite from the baseball board to get us to 10. Another option is I use a "ghost" team by using a second email address of one of mine for a team that then autos the draft with no activity on the year. Any other ideas?
Again my only reason for Wednesday over Tuesday was because of the UT games going on Tuesday. Tuesday works for me if everyone wants that day. Can everyone do me a favor and shoot me a pm with the email address you would like to receive the league invite at? I will get those out tonight.
Yeah I apologize everyone. I'm so fucking busy getting my local little league up and running this year and it happens to start tonight. That said I say we draft on Wednesday night at 7 or 8 Central time. Thoughts? We will roll with 9 unless someone else chimes in. Same stat categories as in the past. I think our only major change was using OPS instead of Avg.
