SIGH, way is it that it seems when I'm in a draft where I've traded away a pick in a round, that's the round everyone uses the whole clock and it comes to a screeching halt??
Or maybe it's watching the names go off the board that makes it excruciating. :?

I propose the following league rule addition:
[b:42ffa31422]Stick[/b:42ffa31422]
If a manger times out they are required to do one of the following:
A. Lose the pick
B. Keep their highest priced player benched through game 42
C. Name their team the "Overdue (fill in the name of their least liked MLB team)"
I'm thinking A or B would be the choice of most. We all know how important team names are to us.
[b:42ffa31422]Carrot[/b:42ffa31422]
Whichever manager has the least accumulative time for all rounds between the previous pick and their pick gets a 2nd round sandwich FA pick the following year.
8 votes needed.

Sort of.........

Yes, I'm a little disappointed on our progress. Unless we can really pick things up tomorrow I'm leaning towards a clock on the weekend. I know how difficult it can be juggling drafts with real-life, but the quicker we get it done the less impact on schedules.
Intriguing ideas Palmtana - does the blonde go with the carrot or the stick? Or is that the stick in her mouth? :lol:

I will not get back out of teaching my courses until after 2 at least so sent a proxy to kaviksdad in a PM too. For me email is a great way to contact me if I fall off the edge of the earth due to employment obligations.

Thanks Sandy - hopefully you can be the backup, given your on air responsibilities.
Anybody else take them too? Figure I'd send any remaining out around 3:30 Eastern, so if you're going to be around let me know.
