Event 5 League 1 *Closed*

We were close. I pulled my team to help make sure we don't close before Steve gets his team out. Key, Jim and Bob, please hold off until we have a Jeep sighting tomorrow.

Sorry...Just home from Friday Night Lights. Saw a great H.S. game despite my team losing. Home team scored with 13 seconds left to take 49-48 lead only to see the other team run the kickoff back all the way as time expired for a 54-49 win. Amazing.

I'm in....but Stevep is still there....make sure he's out before we close out!

Wouldn't it be nice if the commish actually followed up from his Wednesday post and gave us all some clarity?

Question: Is it "conventional" to list the board drafted player at the BOTTOM of of rankings? I'm in a league where we list them at the top, but that's where most of the draft occurs outside of the SOM autodraft.

We've debated this before. If we prioritize the drafted place first, then an unscrupulous player may gain an advantage by selecting someone other than his drafted player first -- knowing that he still will get his drafted player -- although prioritized later. If we prioritize the drafted player last, however, then the worst that can happen is someone mistakenly takes another's drafted player and we have to fix that after the draft.

As far as SteveP, although it's a pain, we can always leave this league and open another league (with a super secret password).

Thanks. I pulled my team and will move Gonzalez to the bottom of my rankings.
