BCB Fantasy League Update

Firstly, allow me to remind all y'all that you can get a (normally) $180 CBSSports.com Fantasy Commissioner League for the low, low price of just $90. It has won a whole ton of awards, and is super-customizable. All you have to do is click this extra-long, unnecessarily long-winded, why-am-I-putting-so-many-words-into-it link. To be completely honest with everyone, I also get a small kickback for anyone who signs up through that link, so in addition to getting an award-winning fantasy league cheap you will also be getting the chance to help a poor, hungry college student. I am also open to people randomly just sending me cash, just in case anyone was wondering.
Anyways, actual Brew Crew Ball Fantasy League updates and rosters and questions and general discussion after the jump:
Hello and welcome to after the jump.
First things first, here are the rosters as they stand now for our two leagues:

I also have a team in the weekday league, just so it is easier for me to keep track of points for occasional update posts throughout the season. I won't be drafting to win in that league, obviously, instead counting on my team of Luis Cruz's to get me to last place.
Also, is there anyone in the weekday league who would prefer/not mind switching to the weekend drafters? tcyoung is looking to switch over to the weekday league, but we need to keep the amount of teams even.
Next, for the CBSSports.com Weekend Drafters: I'm not really used to CBSSports.com league, and am still getting the hang of it. But what it looks like is I am going to need to enter team names for everyone in manually, rather than you guys being able to put them in yourselves. Which seems odd. But either way, if you all wouldn't mind either commenting here, e-mailing me, or putting on the league message board what you would like your team name to be, I will enter that promptly so we don't just have Team1, Team2, Team3, etc.
The leagues are both going to be rotisserie, with six stats for each player-type: HR, RBI, AVG, OPS, SB, Runs for hitters and ERA, WHIP, K's, Wins, BB's, Saves for pitchers. At some point I am going to get it figured out so both leagues have the same roster types as well (same amount of SP, UT, RP, C, bench, etc), though right now I was thinking for sure 25 man rosters. Any thoughts on any of this, complaints, advice, whatever, feel free to comment.
Also, one of the teams on the Yahoo! side hasn't signed up yet. I think that it is the brouhaha. Whoever it is, let me know if you need the invitation e-mail resent, or what.
Legal Jargon: CBSSports.com is an SB Nation partner and paying sponsor of the SB Nation baseball communities.
This post is one of a series of sponsor endorsed posts related to the CBSSports.com Fantasy Baseball Commissioner League.

I'm in the weekday draft yahoo league
so it must be brouhaha that hasnt signed up yet
Cool, thanks, I'll change the post to reflect that.
I tried narrowing it down and was left with you two once I figured out everyone else.
Team Names
I suggest we either make team names our user names, or at minimum, include the user name, like “Yar’s Scallywags”
Applying Simpsons and Star Wars quotes to Brewers discussions since 2009.
I'm open to that.
Everyone on Yahoo! has already put in their team names without it, though. I’d say if people want to do it they can, but I don’t want to say anyone has to.
I'm not sure if Yar was going with this...
but I think having the person’s name in their team name makes it easier to see who you’re going up against each week.
Yeah, I know that's what he was getting at.
If everyone wants to do it, I’m fine with it. I’m just not going to require it.
Changing team name
I manage a fantasy football team on CBS, and I think it’s a setting to allow team to change their names.
I use the following navigation to get to the setting…
Setup → Teams & Owners → Team Owner Permissions (link at bottom)
There’s a checkbox to allow teams to change their own name.
Did you make the change?
I still don’t have access to change my team name… did you click Save after you made the change?
I don't know why it wouldn't work.
I could make you an honorary commissioner, apparently, though if you wanted to try and see if you can make it work.
It still doesn't work for me.
And the Change Logo option is still gone as well. If you want to make me a deputy commissioner, I’m good with that… or you can just do it temporarily so that I can see what’s going on with the settings.
If you think you’ll need the help, I’d be willing to help out. Maybe it’ll give me a good reason to keep up with the league.
I gave you commish capabilities.
Setting up the league and keeping up with it isn’t going to be a problem for me, but if you could help me get this all sorted out, I would definitely appreciate it a ton, thanks!
email sent
I would put the name here, but I don’t want to reveal what a dork I am just yet…

hahahahahahahaha
Cards Announcers On Gamel's First Career HR, "That’s all they need is another home run hitter".
That will be put
on my short list of favorite fantasy team names. I’m a fan.
"I held it like and egg...? I know he scrambled the son of a bitch!"
I'll switch over
I would actually prefer to draft on the weekend if tcyoung is still looking to switch.
How do I get the F out of your weekend league????
