I figured Raines was an appropriate pick to get things "off and running". Picking Mattingly or Schmidt would have slowed things down. I recall they used to use calendars to time these guys going from 1st to home plate!

Lets have some fun!! Sorry for the late start.......but I was actually working today and wasn't sure when things would be set up. 8-)

I hope sbankston65 will show up. I always worry about rookie players that I don't know. :? Maybe we should try to line up an alternate owner...."just in case".

So if someone doesnt draft in 3 hour time what happens before Monday?

It has been 4 hours since 1st pick so may want to get that alternate owner lined up. :shock:

No clock for the 1st round stonewalled. I know we can count on you. 8-) I hope we can count on sbankston too.

he may be doing the holiday thing, or not have seen we started. he did have a login on the majordeegan sight, so he's got some experience.

while we wait, you know what would be fun sometime? a psuedo frenzy draft here on the boards...12 rounds or so.
first come first served...who ever posts first once the clock starts gets the player posted, if you double post someone posted ahead of you, you have to repick...but you can only pick once per round, so you don't get a 2nd pick until the first round ends and so on.

problem with that, you'd still be waiting on one or two folks, but they might get inspired to pick in a more timely manner by getting the last pick every round.

The hard part about a possible no-show is you don't know if they really have dropped out without notice or really want to be in the league but haven't checked in lately, lost Internet access unexpectedly, etc, etc. To be fair you don't know whether to give them 24 hours, the entire holiday weekend or what. Then again there are 11 other guys to think about too that are here and ready to make their picks.

Lets try to get an alternate in the wings in case we decide to go that route. Do you know someone that might be interested? Any feedback on how long we should give sbankston? Notice has been posted for over 24 hours that the draft would be starting today however he has only been up for about 6 hours now.
