What
Happened on All Star Night – 1/19/2008
- Draft Night will be May 3rd at a site to
be determined.
- The stats fine for Marty (Cleveland) was
reevaluated. Instead of the stated
fine, it was decided to fine him $35,000.
- Eric (Toronto) did not meet his games played
requirement by All Star Night. As a
result, he was fined $10,000 and is was not
allowed to trade. He will not be
allowed to trade until his games are caught up.
- Marty (Cleveland) was fined $20,000 for over usage
violations on two players.
- Ross (San Francisco) has quit the league and will
be replaced by Mike McKee.
- Mike McKee’s cell phone number is
708-296-9010. Full address info
will be released shortly.
- The commissioners
office is working to sort out what state Ross left the team in so it can
be transitioned to Mike. Hopefully
this will all get sorted out in the next few days. Everyone will be informed when Mike is
able to start playing.
- As a concession to get Mike started out here is
what was decided by the commissioners office.
- Mike will get a “free” ballpark move at the
next draft.
- Mike will play in the long division (Art will
be switching to the short division).
- Mike will be awarded “sandwich” picks at the
end of each round of both of the rookie and free agent drafts. He will be allowed to keep and use
whatever picks Ross has left.
- Mike was awarded $50,000 as a bonus.
- Let’s all make sure to welcome Mike into the
league.
- Only the Philadelphia A’s (Dave & Glenn)
declared a ballpark move. Mike
McKee gets to move for “free” if so desired.
- Mark needs to be paid $10 for trophy money.
- ALL STAR GAME – The Old Timers somehow beat the
New Bree this year. I have no idea what the final score
was. Each of the Old Timer owners were awarded $5000, while each of the New Breed owners
had to pay $5000.
