CALL FOR VOTE: Cut back to 16 teams

January 22, 2016 at 01:12PM View BBCode

Hi,

we have now 9 teams put up for sale. We could go down to a 16 team league if we wish.

Please vote, yes or no.

Available are:

NL
Cincinnati
Pittsburgh
Colorado
SF
St. Louis

AL
Toronto
Seattle
LA
Minnesota

Yes, that seems to be best for the league.....although I'd say we are on borrowed time!

I'm just a chaperon, but it would probably be best to drop down to 16

I'm the chaperone for the Cincinnati team. Not sure if my vote counts, but that seems like a good idea to cut back to 16 teams for this league.

I joined because this was a 24 team league... But having 1/3 of the league Bots is definitely not good. I agree that reducing to 16 teams is in everyone's best interest. I vote yes.

Yes, 16 teams.

Somehow, I'm just a chaperon, but it would probably be best to drop down to 16

I agree. 16 would be fine.

I'm chaperoning but think 16 teams would be best.

Among the 9 unowned teams, I'd say Colorado is in best shape. The owner contacted me and said he would keep the team, so we have 16 human owners in the new league.

I also joined because it was 24 teams but I agree with cutting back to 16

It makes a lot of sense to pair the league down to 16 teams. It would be a lot easier to find one new owner as opposed to nine.

Just one chaperone's opinion.

Counting votes up to now. Looks like we'll go to 16 teams - iit's 17-0 for it (6 chaperones voted, too).
I asked admin to stop the league after the next draft so we can cut down, unless we get some NO votes.

I'd say downsize is the best option. And I'm not a chaperone but was going give my team up to facilitate things. I need to cut back anyway.

It is ok with me to go down to 16

Also if needed I can move to American League when this happens.

I agree to a downsize as well.
