*OFFICIAL* '00-01 Off-Season Schedule

[Clay]

The faster schedule has been very popular, so we're going to keep rolling fast in the off-season.

MONDAY – March 25th - Offseason 1 - Accept/Decline Options to Pre Arbitration
WEDNESDAY – March 27th - Offseason 2 - Pre Arbitration to Rule 5 Draft
THURSDAY – March 28th - Offseason 3 - Rule 5 Draft to January 1 NO FILES WILL BE IMPORTED

NOTE: This will essentially give people 24 hours to get RULE V lists turned into me. No reason to bog down the league on this SIM.

FRIDAY – March 29th - Free Agency 1 (16 days)
SUNDAY – March 31st - Free Agency 2 (16 days)
TUESDAY – April 2nd - Free Agency 3 (16 days)
THURSDAY – April 4th - Free Agency 4 (16 days or till ST)

FRIDAY – April 5th - Spring Training 1
SATURDAY – April 6th - Spring Training 2

NOTE: Running Spring Training on back-to-back days.

MONDAY – April 8th - Opening Day

***

That's a two week off-season.

Things to keep in mind:
* Get involved in Rules discussions and be ready to vote
* Be prepared for HOF voting
* Return PMs - A lot of trade action in the off-season. Don't be pissed when no one rings your line if you don't return PMs
* I'm around to help. This off-season moves fast. If you need help, get in touch with me. Don't miss a SIM if a simple PM would allow me to help you.

General question:

Is the FINAL postseason game take us to "new" season with a new peliminary 2001 budget or just END season 2000?

[Clay]

NOTE - Schedule is subject to change based on stopping in preseason to test new schedule.

Congrats to Pat and Dave for making it to the final, thanks to all the owners who make it interesting all season long, and of course a big hats off to Clay for keeping it running.

Here here.

And all BS aside, Clay is one of the best commishes around. Keeps it going and keeps us in check. Better than I ever was.

Yeah, you sucked.

I was just thinking about the PCBL and my beloved Seattle Loggers. As frustrating as that team was, I miss it. And for the record, I'm an OOTP addict because of you.

Oh, and a tip o' the hat to the BLB's Commish too!

I wish I knew people besides Jake who kinda forced himself on me.

It was pleasurable but painful as well.

Jake who forced himself on me.

If you won't press charges, at least get some counseling.

[Jake]

No means yes.

Like, no I won't trade you Dana Scott.

[Delandis]

Just a point of clarification. Do we have until Monday or Wednesday sim to accept/decline options?

[Pat]

Monday.

[Clay]

Monday to accept/decline options.

Wednesday to accept/decline arbitration.

[Clay]

Cant say too often.... ANYONE YOU WANT TO PROTECT FROM RULE V MUST BE ON YOUR 40 MAN WHEN YOU EXPORT FOR TOMORROW.

[Pat]

Spring Training Friday can't get here soon enough!
