Yes to all of the above and forcing happy happy joy joy that's too often unrequited. I usually initiate 90% of convs (email and board chatter) and 95% of trades league-wide. Do you play winter old timers? Also, I'm only planning on a single-season NL with a couple acquaintances this regular season. Discuss and/or leave email if interested in seeing if this goes anywhere. I'm bored with all the above even including a current outside the box SS private league and am this close to throwing in the towel after +25 years.
