NOTE FROM THE FORUM OWNER:

We had a long, enjoyable run, and I would like to thank every Orlando Magic fan who contributed to our small community on the web. This message board will be left online as an archive into the thoughts and minds of a group of Magic fanatics who lived through a 21-win season, the drafting of Dwight Howard, and an eventual NBA Finals appearance. You can also visit the original MagicMadness Forum at http://orlandomagic.proboards.com.

Special thanks to our Staff Members: Black and Blue, MAGICMANEVAN, and NYCMagicFan!

ESPN leagues have started up, and I know we have some serious baseballers in here. I left a message back in October and thought I should try again with a fresh season.

I have 4 dead teams in a keeper league through ESPN. It's a fun, but intense league with a 15 x 15 scroing system. The 6 other teams are extremely active and I thought it would be great to get some new members in.

Let me know if you're interested...

You won't want to drop anyone. The roster you see is the roster you inherted from last season. On March 5th, the deadline for declaring your 4 keepers arrives. Once that deadline passes, the league will automatically throw back all other player on your roster.

You have the second overall pick during the redraft. That means that you have the second pick (in a serpentine draft) after all keepers are declared. You get second pick of all the left overs...

Right now all you have to do is declare keepers. To do that:
- Go to the "My Team" tab
- Under that tab, you have several options (including "Select Keepers")
- Once you click that link, you have a list of all your players with a check mark box.
- Check the four player you want to keep, then click the Submit Keepers button at the bottom.

Remember, you must select at least one batter and one pitcher. The combo is up to you. 1 pitcher / 3 batters, 2 pitchers / 2 batters, 3 pitchers / 1 batter. It's up to you.






CLos, still waiting for your e-mail.

Actually I'm thinking of Tex, Cabrera, Ichiro. With Halladay. I mean I am gonna get HR, RBI, AVG from Texiera & Cabrera. Howards poor AVG + Strikeouts could hurt. I could get the extra AVG, Runs and SB's from Ichiro.

Plus, with just Teixeira and Cabrera, I can play one at 1B and one at Utility. With Howard, one of them would have to be on the bench.

I know the manager last year had that in mind with Tex and Howard at 1B and UTIL. But the with MCab losing 3B, kinda threw a monkey wrench in the whole team.

I never understood the facsination with Howard either.... AVG killer.

Yea.......I had him in a league last year and I lost in the playoffs by 2 points because of his poor average and ridiculous amount of strikeouts.

By the way, which team are you in the league?
