Nice Proxy run.

Wasn't looking for a few minutes there and now back to AT. :)

hmm, wonder if we took Silver's proxies....

Got a long wait for us again. I should be around after 10pm EDT tonight. Leaving work soon.

Wow, now Silver is up against the clock. Don't think that's happened often. I think he has about 3 minutes.

Guess NP can pick after that.

Well today was brutally slow.

The clock is on for 13 hours a day we spent 10 1/2 hours waiting on three delays. Given that, it's probably amazing that we got, counting the three picks before the clock started, 25 picks or two rounds in.

Hopefully things will pick up. They usually do....

Maybe Silver will be on late tonight. It's only 9:30 out here.

Like Joe said earlier, we are a quiet bunch. Is anyone out there being robbed?

Also, a personal note to Smokey, I would text you when your turn comes up, but I don't have outgoing texting on my phone. If you want a ring let me know.

Sorry guys, had huge internet problems at the office yesterday, our network was down over 5 hours, killed my day I can tell you. I had set a few proxies but of course they were gobbled up.

Anyway, here's hoping today will be better. Can't tell you how crazy I went yesterday. I have this huge project I was working on, needed to send out 10 or 12 emails, and network was down from 11am -4pm. At 4pm it comes up & I start shooting them out, then at 4:20 it goes down again. But I'm like "Phew, at least I got 'em out."

Then, network comes up again for a few minutes, and I see the dreaded bouncebacks: "Message X undeliverable returned to sender" on all my important stuff. :evil: :evil: :evil:

So today I have the joy of figuring out who actually got my emails, resending, etc. :roll:

Hopefully no more issues & I'll try to set more proxies today just in case...

Joe no offense, but you should be the LAST person in this league to talk about delays. You had over 12 hours (granted most of that off clock time) for your 4 picks and then instead of making all of them you only made 3 and made us wait an additional hour+ for number 4. :wink:

And I can't count how many times, over the years you've held up the draft making your decisions.

Let's all stop complaining and keep picking OK??? :D

No clock over the weekend BTW.

Niners,

Sorry if it sounded like complaining, email is hard to understand sometimes, I was just stating the facts. It was, perhaps, the slowest day in NLD history. It's OK with me. I got more work done. ;)

As for our delay, I'm not sure why WM took three before taking the fourth. He wanted to talk to me, but he should have waited on all four. Also remember that most of that "12 hours" you mention was during the night! ;) I love SOM (and I stayed up past midnight figuring out what we were going to do), but I'm not going to wake WM up in the middle of the night make our pick! ;) 8-) :P Remember we're on the west coast.

We have definitely held up the draft before so, please don't take this as complaining, just making observations. :)
