I have setup the draft on diamonddope, you can pick if you wish but draft won't start officially until May 15th. I'm still vacationing, my daughter is meeting up with us so I don't expect to have a lot of time this week for ATG . Not that I don't want to but just won't be able to. I pick 8th so the first seven can pick at their leisure.

[traderj]

O.K> thanks Joe, I will wait a few days and mull over my pick. That way you won't feel rushed and we won't have guys waiting for days to make a pick. I am thinking I'll pick by Friday or Saturday next week.

My first proxy is set, so whenever Jon starts it, the draft pressure will jump to Harlan.

[N Texas Widowmakers]

Pick number five is up and not on the clock. :wink:

[joeoc]

Draft is just open, not officially started until
May 15th.....I haven't had time the last few days
to check-in so I'm sorry for the slow response.

Everyone should have gotten an email from diamonddope with the exception of Bill and Darrell, Darell has new email and Bill doesn't have his listed

I'm home late Friday so I'll officially contact everyone after that and I clear out the jet lag :shock:

Thanks Guys for Your understanding, I appreciate the enthusiasm for the league

[Frank Bailey]

Mickey Mantle a second rounder. Oh, the humanity. :cry:

[dspeters5]

Mick has had some off the field issues. We think we can straighten him out.

[joeoc]

OK guys, tomorrow May 15th is the official start of the draft and the[b:a6d095ee23] 6hour clock will be turned on[/b:a6d095ee23] This should serve to speed up the Mayan Draft :lol: :shock: but we have been moving along at a steady but slow pace (closing out Round 8 / more than 1/2 done)
If we can move things along a little quicker maybe we'll be able to start this Friday 5/18/12, if not it will be next Friday 5/25/12 which is our scheduled frenzy night.
Either Friday is fine with me as long as the earlier one does not pose a conflict for anyone. The 18th does get us away from the Memorial Day weekend so to me this option should be more appealing for everyone. The pace for the rest of the draft will reveal the answer.:wink:
