Heya guys!
Whilst looking for new owners, I have come across somebody who wants to be part of the league, but not in the usual sense of owning a team.
His idea was, in gist, he would be here weekly and post rumors about things going on here in the league. But, the innovative idea of his was to post this all from a twitter account that can be viewed by everyboody here.
He would do this by getting pm's from teams, asking or telling him what they are planning to do, and what they are looking for. He would then sum this up by posting here, or by posting on twitter what they are looking for.
I personally like this idea, as it adds another dimension here to BaseKnocks. It would kind of like having our media outlet posting rumors and such.
I personally am for the idea, and when we get Jeff signed up here, I am sure he can explain it in more detail!
I am going to post a poll, so vote in it if you are for it or not!
Thanks all!
Gregg

Ill make it a bit more simple-
Every week or so at anytime you can PM me through here or thefanatic if youre there and I will try to post it on a twitter feed asap which will be posted on this website
Twitter- You can optionally have a twitter account and you can send me it through there via PM where I will post news and rumors on your team
Occasionally ill just go on chatbox archives and post rumors
Not all my rumors will be completely true and some will be setting hype from my opinion and view so if you quickly mention a trade involving a guy I will post that they may be looking to move him which should get you sudden offers
I will occasionally look at ideas I would be the face of the media here at baseknock look at JonHeyman and Chris Broussards account think of those actions I will do
If you have a twitter which you can use you can deny rumors etc
This definitely gives something unique to this league and is sure to boost activity on the trade and free agency market
I hope all you guys vote yes we are up 3-0 if you have any questions just ask
Im not good at explaining things as you have realized but ill give you examples- - I will PM the last place team and will ask if they have any immediate moves in mind and what theyre looking for to turn their team around - I will ask about specific players who I think would fit the team at an affordable price - I will ask teams about trading blocks and more
Here would be a free agent tweet-
Astros are gauging interest on Mark Teixeira they started the bidding at 10MM and considering there 1st base spots opened with need of power expect them to go all in

This is a great idea. I'm just wondering who Jeff is, and why he'd be willing to invest all that time into a league he's not a part of? Other then trying to add 30 new followers to his twitter account...lol.

Other then trying to add 30 new followers to his twitter account...lol. I would make a new twitter account I am not interested in followers I will lock my account . The reason is I am bored and thought it would be a great idea for this kind of league, I wont do it all the time dont get me wrong I will not be constantly here I will do it once or twice a week three times tops, and hope other people will catch on. I dont have much to do at the moment so hopefully my idea will help leagues all around and make it realistic. Its something I wanted to try with a league for a while.
