1. What is your favorite MLB team? Cincinnati Reds 2. By what venue did you find this league? ESPN.com boards 3. Do you use, and if so, what are your: YIM? AIM? E-mail? (A messenger is not required, but definitely useful) AIM: mikerauscher25 MSN: baseballfan8@hotmail.com E-mail: marauscher@gmail.com (I check AIM and my e-mail very often, they're the best way to get a hold of me) 4. What experience do you have playing Fantasy baseball, and where? (Your success does not need to be included, and if included will not influence acceptance in any way) I have played for 4 years on Yahoo in both public and private leagues, a couple of years on sandbox.com before that...I played in 4 leagues this year (14-team with some friends (4th year of the league), a Yahoo winners league, a 6-team mixed, and a 20-team mixed with 30 man rosters) 5. How would you classify your average activity level? Above average in terms of activity 6. When you have ideas to improve the league, how do you go about trying to do so? A lot of my leagues have followed default settings so I haven't had that much control. I have looked for leagues where the format is different and interests me, which is why this dynasty league caught my eye. 7. Did you or do you know who Lip Pike was without looking it up? I did not, but I did look him up...4 time league leader in HR! 8. Is there any other points of interest you feel are relevant to your acceptance? I looked over the league site, and read over all the rules. It is definitely different than any other league I have played in, but I am definitely interested and would love to give it a shot.
What teams would you prefer to have? (Top 5 requested) I tried to leave out anyone that had been taken, sorry if I missed one 1. Boston Red Sox 2. Los Angeles Angels 3. Cleveland Indians 4. Florida Marlins 5. Los Angeles Dodgers

more teams = better league not always. when you have that many teams and they become out of the contending they tend to abandon teams which makes it difficult to fill that void. just my opinion
