I like ESPN better personally. Are we doing roto or h2h? I want in on the West Philly neighborhood or Girard Estates. I currently live in West Philly but I’m moving to Girard Estates in a month.

We’ll be doing roto so we can have an overall winner. It’ll be through Yahoo.

I’m looking forward to this…it may be the only league in the country where you can pickup Jose Reyes or David Wright after the first 4 picks. :)

what philly neighborhoods should we use if that wins? i think some of the generic names like “west philly” and “south philly” should probably be excluded.
some suggestions:
kensington
juniata
mayfair
fish town
northern liberties
rittenhouse
fairmount
bella vista
society hill
queen village
point breeze
pennsport
passyunk square
logan square
old city
washington square

It’s not too late to sign up, email us if you want to join.
If we get low on hoods, I might start using some less-known Northeast spots since there are a lot and that’s where I’m from (Morrell, Chalfont, Bridesburg, Tacony).
CT, thanks for getting us started.

Mayfair playground has the best stickball spot in all of NE Philly… the yard along Hawthorne Ave.. that spray-painted StrikeZone was done by yours truly like ten years ago. holla.

I still get my stickball on there from time to time. Though, that place definitly favors right handed hitters.

Any way we can still sign up?

we shorten the field.. gotta hit it between that light pole down the “3rd base line” and the only place you can hit a HR is if it crosses the part of the fence that runs parallel to Hawthorne..
I’m talking Speed-Pitch though..
For bounce ball you play long ways and hit close to St. Vincent, towards Princeton ave… which DEFINITELY favors the Right handed batters

My whole family for the most part grew up in Girard Estates and I’m moving to Girard Estates in a couple of months. Make that a neighborhood! I live in West Philly now in the Cedar Park neighborhood. I want to join either of those!
