    What is the point of the cap. I could buy any player I want and still stay under.

    With no cap, you could fill a team with superstars and take the skill away from the competition. The challenge is using your budget better than the next contestant.

    I noticed that too, although is is dubbed "High Cap". Im not sure if that makes it harder or easier.

    Generally yes, but in this competition it is basically impossible to go over the cap. as long as you dont take Martinez, who is on the DL you still are under the cap by taking them most expensive at each position.

    With only 7 games on April 5th, it is very easy to build a team.

    On a day with a full schedule and a 1 million dollar cap, it would be a bit more of a challenge.

    No I get that, but in this particular competition I could get the best player (most expensive) in every position and still stay under the cap is my point.

    Almost all contests are 1M cap......we set intro contests at 1.2 M so new users can get the feel for things.

    You're an idiot and you are proving my point even better. I just picked the most expensive players in this contest.

    You guys are missing his point. He's not saying that the most expensive guys are always the best, he's saying that if you can make a team of all the most expensive players and still be under the cap, what's the point of having a cap?

    Jay, I clicked the link Lou has on top of the page, as I didnt see this one listed either. Though it is a higher cap than the other free roll Joust has on the same day. GL!

    When I click on Lou's link I am logged into the main homepage.
    I see several baseball tournaments (King John, King James etc) but they all have buy ins. I assume ours is free, right?
    When I go to the contests & tournaments tabs I dont see anything that refers to SBR Apr 5th?
