    one other thing, you can join more than one league with the same account... you just have to create another team...

    this game is a salary cap mixed with a stock market


    you have 2 million to buy 11 players and then once the season starts, the values of each player will change based on movement of all the managers and the efforts of the players

    and this is unlike yahoo, as you can wind up with more than 2 million or less than 2 million to purchase players with

    Gang:

    On the DC United board, people are posting their rosters for debate. So I thought I'd post mine here as well:

    Ok, I guess I'll show you what I'm thinking:

    3-5-2.

    Kreis -- Eskandarian

    Vaca - Ekelund - Beasley - Martino - Mapp

    Petke - Ivanov - Kante

    Hartman

    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    I've built my midfield instead on mostly young guys who are ready to take off. And I've made an assumption that Eskandarian will start, and will be the beneficiary of a revamped midfield.

    here's my starters (subject to change)

    razov-quaranta

    beasley-convey-armas-kingsley-gonzalez

    boca-bo-brown

    a. brown

    it's kinda tough with the 2 mil. i wish i could have bought more draftees but with the teams getting better it's harder to say those guys would get playing time.

    As much as I prefer a 3-5-2, I could only make the budget work with a 4-4-2. Damned salary cap.

    I guess I'll look into starting a team, but I'm terrible at keeping up with it. Plus, refusing to buy any Dallas, Metro, or LA players limits your options slightly.

    this is probably a dumb thing to say but my experience with this type of fantasy league is that it is best to have the least amount of defenders possible because they make the least amount of points.

    couple of thoughts


    -you are only allowed 25 "trades" (after that it's pay)... that's less than one move per week... make note of that
    -u-20 championships this year
    -confederations cup, gold cup, etc for various countries
    -razov might not be a good bet to start with... he misses the first few games
    -rookies like memo will probably get very little playing time all year... they'll spend most of their time with the u-17's
    -various quality players coming off injuries

    etc.



    you can make as many moves as you want before the season starts

    My starting 11, this will probably change before opening day, as we see if some of my "hunches" will actually start (Ivanov, Albright, Chacon, Grimandi, Olsen, etc.)

    These types of games are only fun if you are willing to take chances.

    There was a problem selling:

    Hartman, Kevin for $189,000.
    You don't have enough trades left.

    hmmm i thought we had unlimited trades til 4/5
