I'll approve it--but I don't know how. Nothing at the top of the draft shows anybody trying to drop anything. Let me know. I'll check back later.

Thanks... my screen shows "drop pending" on the top; don't know if you can see that or if that helps,

just guessing....but mine shows that the drop has been processed....have you tried drafting another stadium or logging out and logging back in

Harry, my screen shows nothing regarding a drop as well. I went to the administrator's screen (I made all league members here administrators, as this is a good group and I wanted to be able to speed up drops), but nothing is showing there either. Maybe someone else approved it and we're just waiting for DD to catch up.

If you are unable to take a stadium soon, just post it here, then I'll make my stadium pick (it's one of the "perks" of picking a stadium last, you get to see everyone else's pick before making yours!) and we'll move on to division assignments and hopefully get the league filled over the weekend. - Bernie W

Yes, maybe all you need to do is refresh your screen and make a stadium pick.

OK, gentlemen, finally in with the correct era stadium!

I've created "The Changing of the Guard '60s-'70s League" and my team is temporarily in the East until a team loads, whereupon I will remove it so that all other East teams can load. I've messaged the password to teams in the East. Check your league mail for the '50s-'60s league. I'll send the password to the Central teams once the East loads.

Have fun everyone! - Bernie W

I've entered my team in the Central and have sent the password to the West managers through league mail for the '50s-'60s league and to carr20 through league mail for the two franchise expansion league.

Hopefully the league will be up and running sometime in the next 24 hours.

Also, as an aside, I put $5 mil Reggie Jackson on my auto draft card, as that is the version I intend to use. I decided to cut back from the expensive Jackson at the end of the stadium round of the draft and was going to make the change through DD then, but after seeing how long it took to make a simple stadium drop, I thought that I would announce it here as quicker, cleaner and easier.

Thanks for all your help and cooperation in making this a smooth process. - Bernie W

Just curious what the holdup is ... waiting on one team for almost a day now.

This is just a quick heads up to say that a few minutes ago ShakeyBoomer responded to a PM I had sent him yesterday regarding the delay in entering his team and said that his team would be entered by 6 P.M. today.
