Event 5, League 5 (NL only) - DRAFT HAS BEGUN

[ado_jake]

3 to go now. Maybe we can still fill it up tonight. :)

Bears are in the West...2 to go! Should draft tonite easily....

Sorry for delay, when I checked at 5:00 PM last nite, league was not even formed yet, so did not DREAM it could fill! I feel bad teepack, sorry about that. :cry:

Fortunately, with all the live draft picks and shallow talent pool, waivers probably will not be as critical as in a normal autodraft...so enjoy the GAME!! :)

Per teepack's request. If I am wrong in this, someone please let me know and I'll enter it tonight.

AP, thank you for all the help this draft! :D

I am fine with a Friday draft and a Sunday frenzy.

Friday draft is fine. Lets get 11 teams loaded so Dneedle can join Friday morning.

I believe the above quote should be true, ah, but with a rookie live drafter (only my second one) and two 100+ rated managers in my division, it is critical for me. :lol:

Besides, ATG3 is out. Some little time, so little money, so little talent, what does a GM who constantly finish under .500 do? One who has such bad luck, ie three way tie for wild card and I had better record against both of the other teams but tie breaker made it that I did not go... :cry: :D

What a great weekend ahead, the waiver draft of this tourney and ATG3. Does life get any better than this????? 8)

whoops, wifey home, got to send this before she reads it. GL.

Let's be certain to lock this up today!!

[teepack]

Thanks, guys. I'm in Chicago now and can't wait to get to Wrigley tomorrow. I might even be able to get near a computer on Sunday to check on waivers.

How was the game teepack?? How was WRIGLEY????

I have only been by it, went to the bars, but never to a game...ONE OF THESE DAYS!! :wink:

Wrigley was awesome. It was virtually sold out for a meaningless game in August between two of the worst teams in the NL! It doesn't get much better of a baseball atmosphere than that. The Cubs won, and they celebrate every game like they've won a World Series almost! We rode the El out to the stadium and back, which only added to the experience. The park really is in the middle of a residential neighborhood; just a very unique experience. I have now seen games in both Wrigley and Fenway! Compared to Wrigley, Fenway is a dump! Wrigley was much cleaner and more modern than Fenway.
