DOUBLE FRANCHISE - Draft Concluded - Time to Start

Live draft is for a full 25 player draft that lasts about two to three hours depending on the time limit between picks. You might be thinking of the Diamond Dope site, which I hate to use. Keeping up with keepers should be no problem. I've already made a list by position on who you cant take. Look at all those blank spaces. I could do it again if we were to add additional keepers. We need to make a decision by majority rule on any future keepers for league 2, 3 and 4 before the current draft is run. Or we can just play under the current rules when we started this.

Rick,

I don't think it would be a problem for you or I who are ANAL RETENTIVE..... but some of the owners on here I'm concerned about being able to submit a card without listing 44 or 55 protectees....it could create a lot of problems, can you imagine...someone keeps like HACK WILSON and one of the owners lists him #1 or #2 on his card and then he rants to the rest of the league that he didn't NOTICE that he was kept, then there are hard feelings, etc...not to mention the mess of the other 2 owners wanting to know do they have to trade back before or after waivers to UNDO the FUBAR....too much potential for DRAMA...we already had drama last night...and some of the owners drafting players from different franchises...and a DUPLICATE STADIUM...no harm here since we caught it, but could you imagine someone screwing up during the draft by making an simple and innocent mistake.....do you smell what I'm cooking?

My vote is for just 1 flexible bonus keeper...if the other 11 owners SWEAR they won't FUBAR and take someone else's protectees, then I would go along with the gang and do the extra keepers....but everyone would REALLY have to be CAREFUL and pay attention to their draft cards....

Also, sorry but don't have the time to prepare for the draft till tomorrow (Sunday) morning first thing.

DRAT!

Brad just leave the league as originally set up. Don't want to confuse anybody.

ADDITIONAL KEEPER POLL:

*Option 1 - Stay with just 2 FRANCHISE KEEPERS as we currently have through all 4 seasons
*Option 2 - After season 1 each owner would have 1 flexible keeper slot to protect a 3rd player for all follow on leagues...player could be dropped or traded from season to season along with change of season for the player.
*Option 3 - After season 1 each owner would gain 1 extra protection slot for each league, i.e. 1 bonus keeper for season 2, 2 bonus keepers for season 3 and 3 bonus keepers for season 4.

EVERYONE PLEASE INDICATE WHICH YOU WOULD PREFER and VOTE before going to bed Saturday night so we can publish decision before Sunday morning when SLACKER JOEYM submits his draft card.

Option 2 for me. I'd like Option 3 but it could get too crazy

Ok, so I messed up big time. I chose Sportmans 1920 thinking it had a 19 to right, and not left. Anyways I would like to change it. If not I completely understand since it was totally my error for not being careful. I would like to request to change it to Busch Stadium '67.

Here's my opinion...I really think we need to pay attention to DETAILS and live with our decision...however, it is about having fun, this really isn't supposed to be that serious right?

I have no problem...however, if there is one other owner that has an objection then I will have to ask you to live with your original choice....so go ahead an make change and post on the final rosters like I did for Musial 6 and Joey C which are highlighted in Blue...Please highlight your stadium line change in Blue also so that it looks like Musial 6 and Joey C....if nobody protests, then I'm fine with it....make sure Rick (North Texas) makes the change also.

BTW - you didn't list any of the other 22 FRANCHISE PROTECTEES on your draft card....right?

Of course not. I've got a 7 week old baby at home. It's taking me hours to fill out my draft.
