is anybody out there interested in joining a fantasy baseball league?... leave a note or send an email or call 407 325 1482...

I am no sports fanatic... I seldom sit through an entire sporting event... but I do enjoy watching highlights and it is something to talk about, so I have been keeping in touch with sorts by playing fantasy sports for a couple of years... most of the fun comes from following the stats and trying to figure out who's going to produce the best stats... I love numbers, I love games that play with numbers... so I've come to enjoy fantasy sports...

I am a stats fanatic... or at least I once was...

there was a time I could rattle off all-time records in most major sports, especially baseball... I was the kind of kid who read the dictionary, the encyclopedia, the almanac, and specialty reference books... one book I loved to peruse, when I had the funds to buy relatively anything I wanted, was The Baseball Encyclopedia (one of the obscure gifts I would treasure while still recognizing the relative meaninglessness of it and realizing that I'd probably much rather have had a few music CDs instead)...

maybe some false bravado, ego posturing, or trash talking would help (this seems to motivate the jock-types, though not being one of them, I may not do it just right)... I am currently in a dogfight in a fantasy basketball league, just barely holding on to a slim lead the last couple of weeks, but it's still way too close to call and could come down to the last few games... I played fantasy football the last two years and almost won it all, losting in the Superbowl... and I've won two different baseball leagues in the past two years, so take that all you would-be champions (feeling challenged yet?)...

anyway, I've decided it might be fun if some of us here at DLand (or anybody, for that matter) got together in a fantasy baseball league... if you are interested, leave a note or email or call or do something to let me know and I'll do something rash like create a league over at Yahoo fantasy sports or somewhere equally free and easy to access... so that's the idea... anybody?...

details:

it's Yahoo Fantasy Baseball league #228691... just go to the league home page (and if that doesn't work for any reason, like you don't have a Yahoo ID or whatever, just go to the Yahoo Fantasy Baseball home page and if you still can't find it just send me your email address and I'll send you an invitation) and sign up... you'll be asked if you want to join a custom league and click yes and then enter the league number (I think I removed the password, but if you have any trouble signing up, just call or email and ask and I'll walk you through it)... the name of the league is Central Florida Points but you don't have to be from around here to join (you don't even have to want to visit ever, but you are welcome to stop by if you vacation around here... seems lots of people do)... the league was already set up to test the depth of knowledge of the avid baseball fan and the adjustments I made today raised the bar, so bring your mathematical thinking cap and all the baseball knowledge you can muster and play to win,, but above all else, bring the desire to have fun...
