[USML Announce] USML - expansion

[Jeff Winick]

I'll follow the group consensus on this one. 

More critically, however, I'd like to make sure that the importance of today is noted:

Happy Birthday to our Commissioner!  Hope you have a great one, Mark.

I fully understand that Dennis had to start from scratch, and he has been an excellent addition to the league.  I just think it would enhance the experience to put a new owner on a somewhat level playing field.

Frank has been playing roto for years off and on, and recently told me that his current league is folding.  He was enthusiastic when I told him there was an opening in our league.

Assuming people are in favor, I plan to talk with him over the weekend to give him a description of the league and make sure its a fit (and that he is available on draft day).  Also, for clarity, let me know if you think he would start from scratch or take over the current Red Hots roster.
