My prospective partner in this league has been commissioner of our current league for 4 years now (best league I've been in since starting 17 years ago) and we are willing to START a new league if we can find 8 (al or nl only) or 12-16 teams to get in a league worth $200+ fee.
Rule book already written and concise.
Reside in New England/New York?....May be worth starting new.
Its a $206 entry fee, not quite $250 but thought you may be interested. Only have 2 spots left

H2H, AL only, $$$$ Sportsline live online snake draft
$280ish yearly fees, $1600ish for 1st, very fun league!!!
I run a money league on Sportline, we are in our 6 year. One of of founding owners droped out due to a new career move. So, we are looking for someone who would like to be a owner for the long haul.
Our leage is a AL/NL only league that switches each year, with this year being AL only. There are 11 teams, all standard default head to head scoring rules with a few minor adjudstments. The cost of the league is $130 to enter, $1 a transaction, $3 a trade plus transaction fees, and $5 weekly. The weekly fee of $5 gets divided up, half goes to the kitty, the other half goes to the team that scores the most points that week. There is also a $25 fine for last place at the end of the season, and a $25 fine for lowest team scoring for the year. The kitty looks something like this: 1600 for 1st, 800 for second, and 300 for 3rd. The average team spends around $280 at the end of the year.
If you are interested, our draft is the second week of March, and is online. We will need half of your fees before the draft ($150). Please drop me an IM or email if interested.
