The LPMFL

I was in Stickney yesterday participating in the Loop's Poor Man's Fantasy League draft. It's the 25th year of our league, believe it or not. When we started the league all of us worked at the Loop in various different grunt positions, and the draft was actually held in the fancy Loop conference room. One year the Loop even sprung for a hotel conference room for us.

Team owners have come and gone over the years (people like Dan McNeil, Peggy Kusinski, Cindy Gatziolis, Terry Gibson, Mike "Igor" Davis, Mike Medina, Clay Champlain, John Bell and others have been part of the league at one time), and as you might expect of the radio business, it wasn't long before none of us worked at the Loop anymore.

But we still have a great time getting together, picking our fantasy teams, and talking baseball. This year, for the first time, someone brought a camera. Thanks so much to the pizza guy for snapping this picture.
