Around SBN: Full Coverage of 2012 Coke 600

Maybe a separate post below for each letter of the alphabet? dunno...

It is set up with players last name, first name and then whoever adopted that player/person etc.

You can keep a player if they have gone elsewhere, cuz you know...once he turns 47 the Giants might just re-sign him.

Oh and this is just for informational purposes... please DON'T reclaim your player or claim a new one or anything else at this point. We'll sort all that out in late February? at the actual adoption draft.
Who the hell knows who the Giants will trade/sign/dfa between now and then?

Informational Dibs on Billions of Bucks, Board Dominance, and Senescence

For the sake of information, I am putting in my claim or intention or airy leaning to the adoption of Johnson, Charles, the absurdly rich, powerful, and late septuagenarian major stockholder in the Giants, and therefore (according to Mark Purdy) the most resonant voice on the Giants board of directors, and the guy who holds the purse strings tightly and deftly enough to make the purse dance like a giddy marionette. Yes, Johnson, Charles for me as my own adoptee, whenever the choice of adoptee gets beyond the informational stage.

I think maybe we put the word out on Feb 1 for maybe a 2 week “reclaim them or lose them” period and we start deleting names after that.

Before the new draft

There’s a “claim” draft where people have a few days to re-assert their rights to their current player or risk losing him (and can outright dump him if they so choose).

While it is good to get a great spread of prospects and legends represented

I am for multiple parents. I’ve been co-dad of Travis Ishikawa for a while.

Maybe 3 parents for the 40 man roster. 2 for top 20 Community prospects. 1 for other.

This can be discussed later. But just let that sink in.

This is a huge help, especially with SBN’s search engine going kaput. I did indeed run the adoption draft last year, and, while it will depend on my workload and such come February, it looks like right now that I will be able to run it again.
