Hi, my name is George and I am a sophomore in high school. I have been watching baseball my whole life, and have been participating in fantasy baseball since elementary school. I live in the Boston area, and thus would prefer to manage a team such as the Red Sox or the Phillies due to my Philadelphia roots, but would be content with any team besides the Yankees. I found this league through the rotoworld forums. If I needed to be contacted, one could reach me at pretty much anytime at my email of gbarker2000@comcast.net
I have personally only been in one fantasy baseball league that I didn't win, (came in second), and am an incredibly active owner. I haven't looked over all of the rules of this league, but I am very familiar with how the transactions (arbitration, free agency eligibility, rookie drafts etc) work in real life and if much of that is similar to this, I would say I have a pretty good understanding of it. Although I would obviously prefer a competitive team, I would be willing to take on a rebuilding project as I personally enjoy trading and waiver wire scouring just as much as winning.
I also participate in a 32 team fantasy football dynasty league, and really enjoy the challenge of leagues such as this. I have experience with fantrax as well, and if there are other openings besides the one that I shall hopefully take, I have other friends that would be interested as well.

1. What is your name? George 2. What is your age? 15 3. What is your general location? Boston, MA 4. What is your preferred team? Red Sox or the Phillies, but out of the available teams I prefer the Giants 5. How did you find this league? I found it on the Rotoworld Forum 6. What is your e-mail address? gbarker2000@comcast.net
7. What experience do you have playing fantasy baseball? I have been playing in fantasy baseball leagues for 4 maybe 5 years now, got four "rings" to my name 8. Have you had a chance to review the rules? Yes I have 9. How often will you be available to be contacted by fellow owners in this league? Pretty much anytime via my email or Fantrax chat services, would have to take July 4th weekend off for camping 10. What kind of team would you be willing to take? (One that can compete immediately, soon, or a long term project?) any type of team, as contenders and rebuilding projects offer different types of thrill
11. This is a league with 30 teams in it, and as such it can be expected that there will be a rather large number of teams that will not contend every season. Would you be content with building for the future? Do you need to always be in competition in order to remain interested in the league? nope 12. Is there any other information you think we as a league should know in order to best determine your eligibility? I love dynasty leagues and am a very active owner 13. Please post links to any other leagues you participate in. none of my leagues that I do in baseball are dynasty, so there aren't any leagues worth showing really

Welcome George,
Sorry for the miscommunication. The first application was fine.
The Giants are yours. You can create a profile with the username "Giants GM (name)". You will also need to create a roster page and trade block. Trading is allowed 7 days after a trade block is established. If you have any questions, we'll be glad to help.
I'll get the Fantrax invitation out as soon as possible. We're glad to have you here.
