okay guys sorry to be the absentee landlord but i work nights and my in-laws are visiting this weekend. I will check the lotto numbers for tonight (saturday)
a little later and we will go with them.

Does anyone have any experience with setting up the draft on penn's site?

I am thinking we can run the draft from 0800 eastern time until 2200 eastern monday through friday with no clock after Friday @ 2200 until Monday at 0800.

sound good?

We will not be able to do this draft on Penn's site. He made the below post earlier today. If we do this live draft, it will have to be on the boards. I am still game if others are.

Here was his post earlier today:

I wasnt going to post at all but I people are creating live draft signups and waiting for the site...Im very very sorry!

I have not updated 2006 player prices into the draft site (all the rating disk players are there without prices) and Im undecide if I will do so. Im very sorry for this but Im trying to decide if the draft site will stay running at all. I apologize for this situation!

btw, life and family are great. This is simply a decision I made one week ago. This will be my only post about this. You can email me but Im off the boards for an indefinite time.

Sorry for the intrusion but I found Penn's statement interesting. Sounds as though he wants us to be upset that we no longer can use his draft creation (which I have used and enjoyed) so that we demand that TSN recognize it and make it apart of their site.

Here is Penn today :evil:
Here is Penn after TSN asks permission to use his drafting program :D

I don't know if it is money or recognition that he is after.
