Amateur Draft
The amateur draft will held next sim. Please make sure to upload your draft lists. Also, please make sure to check the Traded Draft Picks page and make sure that you are properly credited with all the draft picks that you are entitled to. That is the page that I will use when setting up the draft. We will not entertain appeals for missing draft picks after the draft.
Next sim: Wednesday night.
I didn't know the answer to the question, Zev, until I looked it up. Interesting question.
ReplyDeleteI don't know either, but it should be Bo Jackson.
ReplyDeleteBo came to mind, but I didn't think he played long enough. Deion Sanders is in the NFL HOF, but definitely wasn't good enough at baseball to get to Cooperstown.
ReplyDeleteAnd then I looked it up and realized I never would have guessed it, especially given the path he took to get there. Definitely a good question.
the person was from the 1930 played 9 years in the NFL and then became a umpire in MLB ...Cal Hubbard
