"Wow.. BH.. thanks for helping Queenie out over the weekend.. I was out busy getting sunburnt with the kids."
Not a problem. I finally found a question on here that I knew the answer to. No giving of your opinion only.
I am ok with a live draft. Never done one before but who cares. I work Saturdays but could work around that. I am also East Coast time zone.

Thanks James, The 27th would be a little tricky. I'm on the west coast and involved in training from 8:00 - 2:00 pst time. So I can get up early or do it in the evening. Let me know. What, no sentiment. Gosh you are stretching me as a person. Thank G-d my son will be home to help me.

Hey Queenie.. I could be full of it as well.
I passed on sentiment 2 years ago in a live draft when MY BOY Drew Brees was still available and grabbed a guy only Kyle Orton managed to be able to hit that year (and inconsistently at that)...
Never again will I doubt the Cool Brees..
Granted.. his shoulder was questionable.. new team that year.. Stallworth wasn't all -that- in my book.. some cocky rookie RB who had decent hands out of the backfield...bah..I'll take Moose..
cost me a spot in the finals it did..
Should have went with my heart on that one.

Ok.. only 4 teams registered?
Thought we would have more by now..
I'd like to at least have 8 to have a full bracket as we come up on the postseason and make it somewhat interesting.
Could be the highest scoring league ever..

Ok.. for those that signed up.. all 4 of us that is.
Are we still wanting to do the draft tomorrow? My thought is we go ahead and extend it out at least until 09/02 to give others a chance to join in.
With only 4 teams in the league, are we still wanting to go on with it?
Just looking for input from those who signed up.
If you haven't signed up and want to, the details are in the OP, and I'd love to have at least 6-8 teams so that we're not having rematches every 3 weeks..

I'm still game. I second the motion to postpone the draft. My other league does not draft until the 5th. That still gives you time to move players around before the first game.
If anyone is unsure about the time commitment... it takes less then 1/2 hour a week. Sign up with your spouse and spend some time with them going over your game plan.

I second this... my brother and SIL have a blast doing this every year and are in MULTIPLE leagues as a result. WW and I had a lot of fun doing this together too.. well, before she earned the other W..

Ok everyone.. I'm going to bump the draft out until the 31st.
Make sure you have your rankings in by then if you are planning on doing this.
This way the draft can be finalized by the 1st which is the cutoff to start scoring in week 1.
There's a 2 day wait on trades so keep that in mind.
Sure would like more than 4 teams to play.. so if anyone is interested.. sign up!
