I'm out of town so spotty Internet coverage.

The Wizard: DOHowser is leading on Ozzie, pending one bid.

Open:
gorshar - 1.00 (because I already had a 2B and I'm not ready to try DHowser's lineup strategies...)

DO never bid on Banks, will close in 45 minutes

[DOHowser1]

Not able to bid on Banks until I see results on Ozzie. I believe bidding on Ozzie closed about 15 minutes ago.

I am traveling, and pulled off Interstate into a Hotel lobby to check the status. Will wait for a few more minutes and hopefully Ozzie results will be posted.

[DOHowser1]

Traveling and Internet access is going to be really tough for the next couple of days.

In order to hopefully not hold everyone else up, I am claiming Ozzie, from a prior post, indicating I was ahead with one bid missing, even though the final results have not been posted.

If in fact I do get Ozzie, I will now put up for bids [b:87e2857c81]RIPKEN at 3.01[/b:87e2857c81]

[DOHowser1]

Claiming Gehringer new hitter Aaron opening at 5.98

[DOHowser1]

I have two new bids out there and it may be more than 24 hours until I am able to get back online. Will do my best.

While I am certain that the remark was totally innocent, I think that PKB's comment that DOHowser was leading on Ozzie with one bid to go was inappropriate. It is theoretically possible that such a revelation could give the last bidder an edge in framing his bid, and that would be the case especially as our remaining budgets dwindle. Thus, I suggest that any comments on outstanding bids be restricted to a notification that we are awaiting their bid.

Again, PKB, not accusing nor wishing to offend, just trying to preserve the secret nature of our bids.

Banks goes to Hackra for 7.53, lots of bids, details to be published when I am home
