    I gave Sam, Joseph Addai as his time ran out (which is one strike).

    Like I mentioned in order for us to finish this in time, if you let the time elapse twice then I will need to put your picks to auto pick, so you need to either leave lists with someone or rank your players (however, the past has taught us this isn't always effective or working correctly).

    In future rounds I will not pick for you, your turn will just be skipped, however in round 1, I want to make sure everyone gets a good player, and will pick for them from a cheatsheet I have on the next best available. That is the only fair thing to do as we get this thing started, especially since i know guys like Sam are usually very reliable - most likely just hasn't realized the draft is up and running - I have sent him a few emails from the FF website address he has there (not sure if it is one he uses).

    Any questions or comments, let me know.

    Thanks Rook. I appreciate that. I like Addai. If I still have a choice, tho, I'd pick Moss.

    Sorry I spaced... I had court all day today and just completely forgot we were starting the draft.

    No problem, I changed it, I just didn't want anyone to be skipped in this first round. I went ahead and gave you who you requested............Santana Moss.



    I mean after all you never specified which Moss, so I assumed this was the one that you wanted and we will not allow any more changes, that is your final answer............you got a problem with it, take me to court...............





    jk, I gave you Randy.............. ;) ;) ;)

    I just emailed you the league password (as I reset it), so you can help out when I am not here.

    We really need to pick this thing up some ......... if you have to leave a list with someone, then do it. Like I mentioned to ensure we finish on time, 2 time elapses and your draft is put on autopick.........only thing we can do to speed this up.

    I was doing 8 hours for first two rounds, then 4 hours for remaining, however it may be better after this first to go to 4 hours for remainder. Any suggestions..........

    I will be around all day today and tomorrow, so people can leave lists with me if needed.


    having 3 time elapses is a full day lost.

    Rook - I suggest all who have their time elapse get only 4 hours for their next pick and then are put on auto.
