[quote:54933b4183="sandlotshrink"]And Bill, I apologize for getting you riled up.
I finally have a few days home and am "in" to this now, and it just felt like momentum hit the skids.
Now, Chuck won't be able to pick until 6-6:30 PM EST, so we may only get a few picks done today.
I can appreciate that you really wanted Beltran, but appreciate how some of us felt as well.[/quote:54933b4183]
As I stated I do appreciate it, God knows I've been left waiting in other drafts by people who don't leave proxys and just at the last minute make their pick. As qk stated the deal was done still in the clock parameters, so I didn't apprecialt the snarky remark from akindian about "waiting a whole day to decide on a trade" like I was just sitting here with my head in the clouds.
As I said I made my counter offer at 11:30 last night, all I needed to procedd from AFD was a yea or nay as it was a final offer.
And while I appreciate what qk posted about not wanting to leave proxies, I think if your pick is within one or two you should be able to leave 3 or 4 names in a proxy list.
