Hello folks,
What is your name, age and general location?
Daniel LaBrier (I go by Dan), nearly 50 y.o., Eastern Idaho (aka Frozen Tundra West)
What is your email address?
dbreer23 at gmail
Which is your favourite real life team? How did you end up following them?
Chicago Cubs. Born and raised in central Illinois,
How did you find this league?
While researching an applicant for one of the leagues I serve as commish for. I haven't played in a 30-team league in a couple of years, and this league looks very welcoming.
Please give a brief overview of your fantasy baseball experience. How many other leagues are you currently a member of, and what format are they (ie H2H, roto, redraft, keeper, auction etc)?
Have played fantasy baseball for ~25 years, going back to early ESPN and Yahoo leagues. Currently in 2 other leagues, both private leagues on Fantrax. I serve as commissioner in both of those leagues. They are much smaller leagues, though - one is 10 teams (free), the other is 12 teams ($50/yr). Both are weekly H2H dynasty leagues, and one has a massive minor league system (which includes amateurs).
How often will you be available to be contacted by fellow owners in this league?
I'm usually on several times a day, and don't often go more than a day without checking in at least once. I do travel some for work, but even then I usually try to check in unless it's not possible (for which I would post an "out of the office" message to the league).
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?
I'm no stranger to building teams from scratch, and enjoy the challenge.
Is there any other information you think we as a league should know in order to best determine your eligibility?
I have participated in several leagues (besides the two listed above) over the past 4-5 years, but have yet to find the right fit. After reading some of the recent dialogue amongst owners here, I really think there is an opportunity to be part of a very good league for a long time. I hope that when an opportunity to join arises, that you consider me as a candidate to join. Thank you!
Please post links to any other leagues you participate in.
Both are private leagues in Fantrax.
