      <comment>roto -- I was unaware of the 18 person limit.  Where is that info given?  I should go back and have a look... Anyway, given that, should we delete some of the people who have not been on at all in months and months?  The original idea was to have the group as a meeting place for regular baseball posters so that we could stay in touch and know where to go for good discussions.  Since the activity function on individual user pages has been eliminated (again), we really need to have a functioning group page.  At the moment, I can;t do anything as group manager -- nothing really works.  I wrote to the Comm Eds and I hope they can help us out somehow...</comment>

      <comment>Gentlemen, I'm desperately hoping that whatever issue it was that was for the most part preventing me from logging-in successfully has been resolved... For the first time in ages I have been able to read my pm-s, comment on someone's wall AND be recognised by the Magpie page as a logged-in member... If you have wondered about what happened to me, my relative absence has been in part due to work but in part also due to these technical problems.  I updated my browser software -- perhaps that has helped clear things up... Or perhaps when I come back later today, I won't be able to log-in again... lol  ... And by the way, despite the fact that I have enabled the 'notify by email' function, I never receive notification of incoming pm-s or Magpie wall posts anymore... So I don't know when to check my mailbox and the group page...
Argh...</comment>

      <comment>I think as time moves on, the Game 6 thread will be okay, merc.  Can probably stay on there until the mods kick us off like last year.  Then can move around as Yankee Hot Stove articles come out.</comment>

      <comment>  Where is the group going to be meeting?  I am not even attempting to get on the threads with the IDIOTS out there.  ESPN, honestly needs to provide a place where INTELLIGENT Sports can be discussed, instead of having to put up with the 3 year old mentality that seems to frequent any article about the Yankees, but the jealous fans of other teams. I am not talking about the TRUE fans of other teams either.</comment>
