Ok, Reds fans, I'm stealing an idea from someone on the ESPN board. Last year, someone (I'd give him credit, but I can't remember who it was exactly, und, maybe) would post a thread for each game with an Over/Under question. For example: "The Reds will score 6 runs" or "Aaron Harang will get 8 strikeouts against the Padres." Then, of course, everyone would post whether they felt it should be over or under and a running tally would be kept of how everyone was doing.
It was a lot of fun and it's something I'm toying with for the regular season. Who knows, maybe the Redlegs board will even offer a small prize to the winner at the end of the season to make it interesting. ;D
Anyway, keep an eye here as the season gets closer. Thanks!!
-Lark

Good idea Lark. It was fun last year and would love to do it again.

Glad to hear it, I hope others are interested as well. I really enjoyed it and was disappointed when he got disillusioned and stopped posting them.
Anyway, we'll see how it goes.

Love the idea...I didn't participate on the ESPN board but I did see it and thought it was cool. Good idea putting it on its own board too.
Anyone want to start a fantasy league with us on the board?

Lark - I like the idea. I travel quite a bit and don't have internet access for days at a time but will participate as much as I can.

I love the idea and cant wait.
I didnt post a lot on ESPN because I had trouble signing in. The screen would freeze up on me 80% of the time. Plus my idea name was stolen early on in my membership. I also didnt feel motivated to talk there because of some idiots.
I will be active here, that is for sure.

Will there be a new thread for each day, or just a couple long continuous threads.
Also can you sticky threads on this stie, so something like a rankings thread could be at the top the entire year?

Yes you can sticky. I am a Admin in a simulation league that uses Pro Boards.
I think rankings would be cool.
