A sad day for TM

[Trader Mac]

I have already dropped my two fantasy leagues in Florida due to living overseas. Now today, I have had to drop my Stratomatic league. I was partners with a guy in America and he decided to step down. Being overseas, I am unable to assume full responsibility for the team. I was the GM and he was the field manager. So, this will be the first year I have done with baseball since the late 90's when I took a couple years break. I had a good rebuilding project going on too. Picked up Freese in a trade. Just picked up E Rogers in another. And I drafted D Brown, Drabek, Bourjos, Trumbo, and Jeffress. The new owner should be real happy with his team for next year.

I am sorry for you.

In this day and age can't you run it by computer?

[joncarlos]

Or get someone from rj to do it?

That's a thought to have someone from RJ play, but it is very time consuming playing the games. We do play by computer but with connection issues in China and the time difference always made it a hassle to schedule and play the games. Plus, it seems like not too many on this board knows how or wants to play Stratomatic. Whoever would play would have to buy the game which costs around $60. If anyone would be interested in being the field manager for a strat team, let me know asap. Email me at [email protected] and I'll see if the league commish would be cool with it. But, you would have to keep in mind that I am the GM and I would have the final say on all trades, roster moves, etc.

Just based on this last sentence, you should ask Kohm.

I am stunned people arent lining up to do it after this line. I mean with jobs so hard to come by these days, who wouldnt want to be an international gopher?

International Gopher would be a good name for a band....or a cartoon secret agent.

One good thing about having no fantasy teams is that I can finally root for my Giants without any hindrances. I would always want my players to do well even at the expense of my team. Now I can just root for the Giants and not worry about individual players. I will follow some players though to see how they do who I had last year (Ubaldo, Hamilton, Price, Hughes) and also some of my Stratomatic rookies (D Brown, Drabek, Bourjos, Trumbo and Jeffress) to see if they would have been valuable for next year. The difference is I won't lose too much sleep if they do poorly.
