Fantasy Baseball

It is that time of year.

The smell of the freshly cut grass. The aroma of the grilled hot dogs laden with sauerkraut and onions. The sound of the vendors yelling "Peanuts! Popcorn!" The crack of the bat. The roar of the crowd.

The mouse clicks at your desk at the office, early in the morning, adjusting your lineup, your starting rotation, and looking to see if anyone else noticed that the hot shot rookie prospect from AAA had been picked up by any of the other teams in your league yet.

Folks, you are invited to play Yahoo Fantasy Baseball. Shoot me an email to pagenandy at gmail dot com and I will give you the password and league ID. I know Donny's in....what about the rest of you?
