FAST 6 XXXIII LEAGUE CHAT (7-30-13)

Aw crap!

I hate going first!

Anyone want to swap picks for the first two rounds?

Coffee, if you'd rather be in the 4 slot for the first two rounds, I'm game for a swap. Doubt it will make any difference on the two nobodies I take, but it would be easier to plan.

I think PJ has made the playoffs once or twice putting such teams together if I'm not mistaken!

I may live to regret the following comments, but his team this Season didn't do well. I'd feel better if he gave someone a list of Proxies for this Six turns at the Best of the Best. I really appreciate his willingness to do it this other way, but if it means a weaker team in another Division, then it's not fair to the rest of us.

But if the rest of you are cool with The Jet's plan, I'll play along too. It's just we've taken care of one another with Proxies lots of times in prior Live Drafts here. I've indicated I'll hold his Proxies & play them -- unless he'd prefer another to do so.

In other words, one guy doesn't participate in the core feature that the League itself is named after? Just sayin ... much luv to ya, Kevin. But as we get better at this kind of drafting, can't you expect to get dusted more frequently if you don't have someone use a Proxie List for you -- DURING THE DRAFT?

Hmmm....how did I know Jon might have a problem

Let's see....$100 million cap + over 4000 players....do I 'expect' to get 'dusted' picking from the free agents?? Not in a million years Could happen, but I doubt it.

I'm good to go if everybody else is

Kevin is taking one for the team and God love you brother. I would also be willing to help out with a list of proxy picks. I'd like to see as level a playing field as possible, for Kevin.

I do understand your concerns Jon and they are valid points.

As for the competive balance of the league, I don't see a real problem here. I've played with Kevin for years and I don't know a more capable manager. He knows how to take lemons and make lemonade. If anyone can pull it off, he can.

I don't have a problem, with whatever Kevin decides.

Thank you Bill!!

I'll leave proxies if everyone prefers. No sweat. Can't promise I'll keep 'em all though, Jon

Kev is toying with us. The man has a plan.

Oh, there's ALWAYS a plan Mike....of course, Custer had a plan too

So did Caesar at Alecia and right about now I feel like Vercingetorix! Going to be a crazy day guys! Wife went in for surgery this morning and I couldn't get off work for it. They wouldn't let me use a personal day as those are allowed, or not, based on "station need" which supercedes any of Fedex's rules at any time! Had a break violation yesterday, a big no-no, so I could be off in time to get my wife's car out of the shop. That means a full break today and running later then I would like to. In the event I'm running REALLY late, don't wait on me! I'll leave everything in Jon's most capable hands to get us started. Draft starts at 7:30 est. I can be reached on my cell at 248-895-1936. Good luck all and see everyone tonight! Jon, I wouldn't worry too much about PJ. He has put together better teams not being here than I have when I'm here!

Thanks for the offer Mike.

Just to clarify, you're offering to swap my #1 & #24 for your #4 & #21 picks?

No other offers guys? Hard to believe nobody else would like to move up to #1?
