OK...I'm a complete idiot, and forgot that I have co-manager abilities, and I can get this set up.

We still have one spot open, it's Mobster's spot...I'll PM and e-mail him and offer it to him, and give him a Tuesday deadline.

Seems that the best weekend will be next, so we need to come up with a time...

My personal suggestion is Sunday afternoon.

I would like it to be a Fri or Sat night type of deal, but can live with anything. My purposes are selfish, and I just want to drink beer while selecting. I had a freakin blast last year.

OK...Saturday is good for me...Friday night I'm working...

I've got it set for Sunday at 4 p.m. ET...you know when the Broncos games typically start...but that's easily changeable.

I'll be gone until about 11:30 tomorrow morning, though I may check in at my buddies place this afternoon. Wedding, he's in it, I'm not, so during pictures, I'll be chilling at his place.

I posted it at the league site but if Boss can't get to it, maybe you can (MO). But last season, I traded Boss Larry Johnson and someone else for his 1st round pick and other picks... I got Kitna in the deal too but what ever... Not sure if we can look back far enough to look at the details but I'd like it squared away before the draft if it's possible.

Hopefully Boss will be around here pretty quick...

I'm sure I can arrange that...though I enabled trading picks, so you might be able to do that at draft time.

Hey Clay, during the draft WTF else would you be doing?

OK, ESPN is limiting times and dates of the draft...we can do it late Friday night (11:30 Est) or Sunday.

The only times available Saturday now are early in the morning for some reason.

Either one works for me, but we need to check with Artie to see if the late Friday works with him. Since he's overseas, I don't know what time that is over there, and whether or not it will conflict with him.

Is Boss still MIA?

I have not heard from Boss...I thought he said he'd be around by about this week, so he could take part in the draft.

Sunday works best for me, but I can do late-night Friday too. Depends on Artie, I think.

Because of my schedule, I'd like to get it done this weekend, but if its not convenient, we can work it out. Just so long as we draft before Sept. 3. (And preferably not on Sunday, Aug. 31 - I gots me some plans...yes, I'm actually having a life this month).

I'd like to hear from Rick and Nut.

And now I'm trying to remember:
Slim was the Couch Potatoes, yes slim?

I don't remember who the WA St. Brontos, Team Mile High and Toronto BroncBackers are...everyone is signed up and ready to roll, but I haven't heard from them as far as draft time preferences.

Edit, nm, WA St. and Toronto said that this weekend would be OK.

Hey fellas. I'm 6 hours ahead of the East Coast so 1130 Friday is 0530am Saturday for me. I'm down for either or. I'd actually prefer the Friday draft (early Saturday for me) vs. the Sunday draft. I'd be getting ready for work at 0530 Monday morning if we drafted Sunday. Sorry for the late response. Hope that window is still here.

I'm ok with the Friday night draft.

Only issue is that appears to be when the NFLN is replaying the Broncos/Green Bay game. I can DVR it, it's not live anyway, but don't know how everyone else feels.

"LJ and a 2nd or 3rd round pick for a 1st round pick... depending on where you stand in the rankings right now... If your a top 5 or 6 pick right now, LJ and 2nd round.... Anyone?"

This is what I was initially fishing... Boss actually responded with something more complicated but balanced and fair. Pretty sure it was my 3rd and a late rounder. He'll probably remember. Is he going to miss the draft?

Guys, listen up, all teams, I don't think I'll be able to attend the draft tonight. My FiOS at home has been down (I have no idea why, been calling them, nothing's helping), and most recently, I have found that work will not let me log into the site, so that's not an option either, I was relying on it to be. I give yoiu this message in hopes of not screwing up the draft, if yoiu have a buddy that wants to take the dogbangers over, let them know. I haven't even kept my players yet. I planned on keeping Chris Cooley, T.J. whose your daddy, Jeff Reed, not sure aboiut the other, but that's immaterial.


sorry about this inconvenience, if any. I really hope someone's on deck to take over for me at this point..

Copy and paste is a wonderful thing. I have both programs on my comp at home. I have to go to a football deal from 7-8, but I should be heading home around 3, so I could e-mail you the file...

And anyone else who might want it. It still needs a little work, but what it is, is ESPN's Top 100, and then everyone's keepers.

Spreadsheet sent...

Couple of things before the draft.

I'll take keeper changes up until 10 p.m. Eastern. Since I didn't remember that I was supposed to set all this up, I never really set a keeper date, so I will do that just before the draft. I'll post keeper changes in a post on the league page.

Try and post in the thread I'm about to start on the league page with your keeper changes.

Secondly, I have that spreadsheet if anyone wants to look at it. It shows the ESPN Top 160 and shows who is being kept by who.

P.S. Layne, I don't have nuts changes on the one I just sent you. I trust you're intelligent enough to solve that little conundrum.

Everyone have fun!

Im sure boss would love to have Holmes or Royal..... I can see you getting rid of Ocho Cinco...... but doubt it. But the fact is you can only have 4 WR's......

If I dont hear from you guys, or whatever I can give Boss Plaxico, and I will take Clayton back from him.

Scranton Bruisers - Haven't seen boss in ages.
Oklahoma City Bricklayers - NTL is in.
WA ST Brontos - He is in.

We need to set a draft date and time. People need to get in and make their keepers.

Real Men of Genius - Slim is in, I think.
Italian Mobstrs - Got a twitter confirmation from him.
Teen Girl Squad - Tinker is in.
Oklahoma City Bricklayers - NTL is in.
WA ST Brontos - He is in.

I will start rearranging teams Sunday, Aug. 28. I have a draft that afternoon, so during that draft is when I will most likely invite new owners.

I have two, possibly three spots now open. Chidoze and BDB are in, pending those five said owners don't get back to me by Sunday.

So, I'm tentatively soliciting two more owners, because I think nut is just off his meds and ignoring me.

For those interested, it's a 12-team league, with four keepers. This is the fifth year of the league, so we're pretty established, and we won't be redrafting. It is a snake draft, and I do allow for pre-draft pick trading. Keepers are automatically your first four picks, so its not based on where those players were drafted previously, its just automatically your first four picks.

QB/RB/RB/RB-WR/WR/WR/TE/D-ST/K/P

Eight bench spots.

Quarterbacks are at a premium, with 1 point every 25 yards, 1 per 10 yards rushing and receiving. TDs are worth six points. If you want to take a look at the full scoring, PM me, I'll e-mail you a link to the rules.

The draft is Sept. 7, and the current players have indicated that's a good night to draft, so that's not going to change. That's the Wednesday night just before that Thursday game.

I logged in and picked keepers earlier. . . put me down.

NTL, I'm only showing you picked two keepers, Tom Brady and Steven Jackson, just checking to see if this is correct.

I think you can choose to only keep two, and then draft in Round 3, instead of waiting until Round 5, but I'm still trying to check on that.

I'm pretty sure you can because I did it in an ESPN baseball keeper draft in March, because I took over a dreadful team.

Of course, you ran your own team into the ground in this case ;)
