Hey guys I just wanted to give a little introduction so you can learn a little bit about me and who your Commissioner is. My name is Josh. I am currently 24 years old. Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. I have been married for a little over 8 months to my beautiful wife Ashley. I graduated from Clemson University a couple years ago. I am currently working at a Church serving as the Assistant Minister of Recreation. I felt called to ministry about 4 years ago and have been pursuing that calling ever sense. I love doing sports and recreation ministry. I would love to start my very own sports ministry that disciples athletes as well as coaches. I love golf and have played my whole life. My handicap is as high as its been in 9 years sitting at 2.6. I am a huge College sports fan. I love college football, basketball, and baseball specifically. Obviously my heart holds dear to my Clemson Tigers. I am also an Atlanta sports fan Braves, Falcons, Hawks(debatable). My dream job has always been to be a GM of a major league baseball team. Fantasy baseball is my way of living that out in a sense I guess. My hope this league is not just about playing fantasy baseball, but it could be a place to have fun, build somerelationships and maybe encourage each other. Go Tigers! Go Braves! Here's a picture of me and my wife enjoying a victory after the Clemson win against Louisville a few weeks ago.  |

What's up guys, my name is Gray Floyd. I am from Greenville South Carolina. I'm in my last year of pharmacy school. Love Sports all sports. I am a die hard UNC Tar Heel fan, I attended the University of South Carolina so I do have a soft spot for the Gamecocks. I love playing fantasy sports; baseball is my favorite because it's every night and like Josh I think it would be awesome to manage a team. This is as close as we can get I guess. I wont post my ugly mug on here, your welcome. I don't have a favorite MLB team, I have a lot of teams I like or dislike, but I really depends on the roster for me, as there are certain players I like and dislike. I look forward to another awesome league with you guys!

 "Play Ball!" My name is Ralph Wakefield, (those on my good side call me "Captain Wake") and the gorgeous blond here is my wife of 36 years, Nancy Jones. Together we run the Pelican Playhouse in Miami Springs, Florida, (read Paradise) and for the last 17 years, it has been (and continues to be) the finest Community Theater in the State of Florida. For the curious, you can go to our web site www.pelicanplayhouse.org and check us out. The site has a link to our Facebook where you can keep up with our day-to-day fun! Like us! Friend me! I am a professional writer, actor, director, teacher and for the last ten years a rabid Fantasy Baseball fan. The Boston Red Sox were fostered on me as a boy by my dad, Ralph Sr., who very nearly named me Ted Williams Wakefield. I have two children, Sean and Elary. Sean has already gifted me with a granddaughter, Helen Jane, and another, Sophia, coming on board in February. Elary is a writer like her dad and her first novel, "Featherlow!" is hot on the trail to publication. My passion for baseball, my wife and children are exceeded only by my love for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Again I say, "Play Ball!" |

Hi, I am Fred. 45 years old, Frenchman, 2 kids I adore. I lived in the US for 8 years, have been in Japan for 10.
I fell in love with the US when I was a kid, before I even set foot there. And I fell in love with Baseball and the Red Sox the first time I went to Fenway Park. 28 year love story.
I used to live in VA (Arlington) and work in DC. Of all the places I have lived in, the DC area is the one I consider my Home.
Baseball is one of my passions. Fantasy baseball too. I follow the NFL (dare I say, I am a Patriots fan ^^) and as a European, I love Football ... err ... Soccer :-), especially the English Premier League (Arsenal fan) (yes it is possible to be French and love England).
I am glad to be a part of this league and I will give my best to be competitive.
As they say here: "Yoroshiku onegaishimasu"

Hey guys, my name is Mike. I'm from Ottawa, Canada. I grew up an Expos fan, but the Jays are all Canada has left now so I root for them.
I'm an I.T. guy that works in the Federal Government for the Department of National Defence.
I grew up playing baseball, and loved the stats went along with baseball an inordinate amount so fantasy baseball was a natural fit. I'm married and have 3 young children. They are 7,5 and 3.
I look forward to starting the league with everyone, and thanks commish for the invite!

Howdy from Texas! My name is Donald. I am a fan of the Texas Rangers and the Dallas Cowboys. I have played fantasy baseball for a number of years. I tried a format similar to this for the first time in 2016. It is enjoyable. I have enjoyed baseball since I played it as a child and in high school.

Hey Rob, I live in Waynesboro, VA. Have you ever heard of that location? Never heard of Waynesboro. But my wife went to James Madison which seems to be just up the road. I've been to Harrisonburg frequently. |

Hey guys, kinda jumped into the deep end here. I'm Bert, I live in Berkeley and I'm in another league with Bryan and Stuart. This will be my third life crushing keeper league, possibly my last. Looking forward to a great season!
Actually, I'm stepping aside so the Yankees can have his team back. I'll be waiting if one of you really vanishes, good luck.
