Grumpy Old Men Draft Thread

I am here. I am not sure how we should handle it. I would like to see things get moving along. In another league I am in, the commission made picks for anyone that had missed two or more picks. Taking the highest salary player available for the missing owner. And making a that pick for a position in need if necessary. Would this work for everyone?

Its Friday so I don't see a need to do anything until Monday. The way this league is drafting we wont load by next Friday anyway. I am in for whatever all of you decide. We drafted slowly last year as well. I didn't have high expectations for this years draft to go any better and I might add I don't care. My dog in the fight is that this is the reason I play keepers, for the drafts. Once the season starts the real fun is over.

I am fine with this. I'm at the airport right now, and probably won't have internet access again until after 4 pm Pacific time anyway.

I'm in no rush and actually agree to a large degree with Mike re: drafting vs. actually playing.

I'll go along with whatever, just would like to know whether I should keep checking in every 15 minutes or not!

Until HKmossy posts for me to draft I’m holding.

I thought we were going to wait until Monday, as chasenally had mentioned, and see if we hear from Geekor. If we don't hear from him on Monday, I will make two picks for him and get this draft back moving. That doesn't mean fast, but moving

ROUND 7
78 geekor - SKIPPED pick any time

ROUND 8

90 geekor Skipped pick anytime

ROUND 9
97 Hk mossy - Guzman, Ronald 1B TEX
98 Paul_Long71 - McMahon, Ryan IF Col
99 sociophil - Lucchesi, Joey SP SD
100 hveed - Barnes, Matt RP BOS

101 Mr Baseball World - Skipped Pick any time

102 geekor - Your pick (we are waiting for you)

103 Ninersphan
104 hveed
105 BG1217
106 Steve F
107 zim13
108 chasenally

Should we maybe wait for Geekor to get back at this point? We can't load the league without him anyway.

Has anyone contacted geekor? It's been almost a week since he returned from his trip.

I am fine waiting until this evening to see if we hear from Geekor. If we don't, I will make two selections for him and we will move forward with the draft. If their is anyone that is opposed to that, please say something.

Okay, I've emailed and PMed geekor. Does anyone have his phone number? Wondering what could be up since he has always been a pretty active participant. Did he decide to stay in Italy? Wouldn't be the worst choice one could make in life.
