My proxy list went like this:

Boyd
Pollet
Jones

Almost the order that the picks went, and I sort of figured that you two weasels would do that to me.

I do love pairing Pete and Pollet at the top of my rotation. A nice little R-L duo. :D

I would have enjoyed pairing Rice and Jones at the top of my lineup, but I guess that won't happen... :x

First time I have ever drafted Boyd as an original thought - if you can call any of my teams that. I still do not know why he has some of the great seasons he does, but I have seen enough positive results that I decided to give him a go here. Too many people taking all my players (Penn Chance ! Arrghhh!)

This is also only the second time I have ever had Nellie. But I do have my Honus security blanket and he makes me feel cozy at least until the first nights results roll in...........................

Longest live draft I have ever been involved with was this last fall, when I was part of the huge 24 team, 26 round draft in the '69 game. First pick was made on 9/30 in the morning and last pick was on 10/17 in the morning. So, 18 days to select 600 players and 24 stadiums. We are 9 days in on this one, and not finished with round 6. I think I may be looking at a new record for live draft duration. :)

Wasn't the next transmission something like "AAGGGHHH!" and then the sound of his ship crashing in to the Death Star? :lol:

Clock is still off, for the time being. Just a reminder.
