The goal is:
-- Have fun playing fantasy baseball
-- To not compromise the fun of others through bad sportsmanship
Are "Love of the Game" fantasy leagues right for you? Our managers who play in this league are all active, competitive, like to trade, talk trash, post on messages boards, and keep the league "PG/PG13 Rated". Oh, and did I mention competitive! ;D

DRAFT DAY
-- We will have a live online draft (through yahoo).
-- Teams that do not make the playoffs The draft order is predetermined based on a lottery system with weights based on how teams ended the previous season (last place gets 20 chances at the first pick, 9th place gets 9). Playoff teams are reversed order in how they finish.
-- Keepers assigned to your team before the start of the draft.
KEEPER RULES
-- Keepers allow you to draft/trade for your favorite players and be able to keep them year-after-year. It encourages a feeling of building a dynasty.
-- 5 keeper maximum, but may release up to 2 players into the free agent pool and gain two extra draft picks in their place. Managers must announce their intentions by the keeper deadline date named above.
-- Managers that do not renew their team will be replaced by a new owner who will inherit the previous team's roster and they can choose their keepers from that team only.
TRADE REVIEWS
-- Trades are ruled on by Commissioner. In trades that may seem questionable to the league the Commissioner will have a Trade committee to review trade in question.
-- Trade committee will be chosen by Commissioner. Each division will be represented.
-- All managers in a league may voice their concern to the commissioner about a trade, however it is the commissioner's perspective that only trades involving collusion or deals that can dramatically change the landscape of the competition should be vetoed.
-- When pleading case keep your emotions in check and stick to the facts.
-- Bashing will not be tolerated with trades in question. If I find you to be disruptive you will be locked out and not invited back.
ENFORCING LEAGUE RULES
As Commissioner, I work hard to promote a positive and fun league for everyone. I will delete message board posts if they are explicit, filled with profanity or personally attack another team. Repeat offenders will be warned and eventually can lead to having their team locked out from posting. I have removed managers from the league mid-season and will do so for serious offenses. Ample warning will be given before a team is booted. Joining the league and paying the entry fee is considered your acceptance of the league rules. ENTRY FEES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.
LOVE OF THE GAME leagues are invitation only and teams that do not adhere to league rules will not be invited back.
