Event 5, League 4 (AL only)

[Jeepdriver]

I'm third in the Central

[quote:fc73acae18]BTW, I have $7+ Mil left over when I finished my draft card.[/quote:fc73acae18]

:shock:

and are you playing in the Metrodome as well??? :wink:

[savguy73]

The Walleye are in and the central is complete. I had $8 million left.

Thanks for the clarification. It was a heated debate with lots of "i've been playing for (some number) years and this is the way it's always been done" talk. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't screwing myself over by putting autodraft on the bottom. I'm a noob, so I have no history with live drafts aside from a 2.5 week odyessy in event 3.

The west is ready.

qicmic--its a deal if your offer is still valid.... F.Rodriguez (LAA) for C.Sabathia (CLE)

Go ahead and draft F.Rodriguez and we will submit the trade after the draft has run (as I have already entered my team with Sabathia)

[LANCEBOUSLEY]

The moquis are in the west.....

[DARRENLYONS]

OK, I just want to say that this is going to be my worst Tour Team and my points will likely be scrubbed from the final tally.

To illustrate the point...

I am only $80,000 over the required salary of $60M.

So, I apologize in advance for my sloppy play in the field, my fastballs down the middle, and my sheer disrespect for the fundamentals of the game.

Also, sorry for the delayed draft picks. Next time will not be as much of an adventure.

Good thing I picked Oakland as my park--it looks like I tried to pick this team on a shoestring budget! The Oakland Scrubs are in the West!

[cristano11]

whats a talking green ape?

[Coffeeholic]

This live draft certainly rates as one of the most efficient I've been involved in! :D

And 11 teams enterred today too... think we just need BD Bruiser to close us out and we could be waking up to new teams in the morning!

btw Cristano, I'm not sure what a Talking Green Ape is either, but that same primate is really kicking a$$ in another league I'm in w/Fowldawg.

[fowldawg]

It's from a really long, stupid joke I tell when I need to: A)
Have a time filler or B) piss someone off :D

I tend to use a team name until they have a sub-.500 season these days. Talking Green Ape has gone 99-63, 95-67, and 49-38... hopefully I'll be using the name a bit longer!

Ditto on the draft... amazing how quick we got done... and I was on vacation for most of it (hence the 5 *SP :roll: )
