Well. I needed to draft Friday because I will be away Monday and Tuesday without access. So I will put my team in Sunday night so I won't miss waivers Wednesday afternoon.

I'm in. Loading team on iPhone might be worse than drafting on one.

Given my access, I am very happy to wait for waivers until after Xmas.

Don't matter to me when we start either. "WAIVERS" in a LIVE DRAFT should be inconsequential.

I'd love to see a LIVE DAFT one day when we A) draft all 25 players + stadium and then B) be forced to keep them until after the first night is played.

Now THAT would be a "challenging" draft.

With the amount of cards in the deck, and the ability to re-tool your entire team, this is nothing more than a loooooonnnnnggggg *** Auto-Draft IMHO.

.....still, I have ZERO auto-draft luck so this is better for me.

Since this comes up in just about 50% of live draft leagues (and did for league 2 which just drafted) - I thought I would mention that if you draft a player that belongs to someone else (it happens, hopefully unintentionally) then the right way to handle things is just to do a trade to the team whose player you took.

I usually try to avoid that by trying to proxy my bench players and you can do this on the draft site even after the draft has completed.

Worst case scenario, if you get a case where the person who stole your drafted player won't give him up, I can always engage TSN Bernie to pack the bags and put all players on their proper teams.

I had to do that once, we occasionally get a bad seed as a player in this tournament. :shock:

BDWard was in- now he's out, that's against the rules. Let's get moving now, holidays over. :(
