Steven: Thanks for posting and volunteering to fill in. I appreciate it. You would be a fine addition to the league if needed.

Steve (carr20) is the first alternate, but he's out of town right now and has limited internet access as a result. Although he was in the league earlier, he yielded his spot to Dukie. I'm not sure if he would get back in or defer to you if a spot opens.

I sent Herm an email Sunday afternoon. I'm hoping to hear from him soon. I have a feeling that his internet access, maybe even his utility service, is spotty at best.

I'm hoping we have answers in a day or two.

I'm grateful for everyone's patience. - Bernie

Hello all. I heard from Herm yesterday. He said that he would be unable to make his picks until Wednesday at the earliest. Herm is a good guy and has been straight with me, so I would like to keep him in the league if possible. Moreover, to put in another team would require us all to repick and in fairness to all, I would have to extend the offer to everyone to reconsider which team to use, just as I did when Dukie replaced carr20.

I am grateful for everyone's patience thus far. I'll update you as more info becomes available. - Bernie

Herm emailed me last night, saying that he expects to be able to start making his picks tonight and expressing his gratitude that we've waited for him. Hopefully we can complete the draft fairly quickly, run the randomizer for division assignments and get our teams loaded by 11 PM Eastern time Friday night so that the frenzy can be run at that time and we can start the league on Monday, 11-12.

I'd like to personally thank carr20 and sdajr76 for their willingness to fill in if needed.

Let's move forward together.

Since we've all been away from the draft, I thought that this would be a good opportunity to repost the following info in one place as we move forward:

Welcome to the BLAST FROM THE PAST REDO THEME LEAGUE DRAFT THREAD. The draft will be serpentine and will be 8 rounds. Picks in the first 3 rounds are strictly limited to players from your past team. Beginning with round 4, free agents/replacement players can be selected. If you have fewer than 5 free agent/replacement players, simply list one of your past team players who will be retained, or just put "skip" on your draft pick.

Please remember the following before making your draft selection:

1. Check the rosters of all other teams and the list of picks before making your pick to reduce the chances of picking an ineligible player.

2. The first 3 rounds shall be for picking players from the roster of your past team.

3. Free agents/replacement players for past team players lost cannot be picked until the beginning of round 4.

4. When choosing a free agent or replacement player, you cannot draft a player who appears on the roster of another past team. After the autodraft, all players who fail to appear on a drafted team's roster are free agents and can be chosen subsequent to the autodraft provided all past team minimum roster requirements are met.

4. Your final roster must have a minimum of 18 players from the past team, minus any exemptions, up to a maximum of 3, for players lost as a result of being drafted prior to the autodraft. If no one else selects one of your past team players prior to the autodraft, you get no exemption for that player if you fail to keep him.

5. When drafting a player, please include the price and make a good faith effort to use the price of the version of the player you intend to use so that hoarding is minimized.

6. Remember, you can use any priced version of a player appearing on your past team.

7. If someone makes a draft error, please post in the ILC thread ASAP so that the error can be promptly corrected.

8. Keep in mind that the league cap is $110 mil.

9. Please name your drafted team the same or similarly to the past team.

Thanks for your input in helping the rules to evolve to accommodate a shorter draft. Have fun and good luck.
