Gee, **Omni** , you’re really screwing me up here. How can I plan ahead if I don’t know if my last pick is #400 or #408??? The real question is will we finish the draft by the first game on Sunday! ---

I’ve got a case of beer and 4 packs of smokes. I’m so ready to go! (And I’m wondering if I should’ve named my team Selig’s Demons) 😃 PLAY BALL! ---

As I posted on the league page, you can join me in #sdbaseball on Undernet for pre-draft discussion. Just go to [http://www.undernet.org](http://www.undernet.org) and click on Webchat, then /join #sdbaseball or if you have an IRC client, just connect to Undernet and join. ---

FYI, **WL** emailed me back and decided to take a pass. He’s already spread pretty thin, and since we’re not really desperate for a replacement he decided it’s probably for the best that he sit it out. Probably the wise call. So, the draft order is still what is was a couple days ago. hope to see _everyone_ tonite ---

I hope we can get through at least the early rounds with a little bit of ease. A 10 PM (for me) start time has disastrous potential if we’re still in round four at eleven. I don’t want to have to go on autodraft halfway through for obvious reasons, but there’s just no way I’m staying up until 2:30 just so I can take Billy Koch with the last pick in the draft. Also, I really hate myself for being the one to say that. Also also, who’s doing the post-draft review thread? Not it. ---

Well, I’d love to do that thread but I won’t be around this weekend to do it. As an aside…I have absolutely no idea who I’m going to pick this year…damn busy work days. ---

Sorry if I screwed you guys up. I just wanted to be fair to the league, and didn’t feel I was going to be able to, time wise. I have no idea what the responses to my post over there were, because I can’t see them, not being in the league anymore and all! ---

There weren’t really any responses. (And by weren’t really, I mean, there weren’t any.) You didn’t screw us up at all; it’s certainly better to have an odd number of teams than it is to have a roster full of dead wood sitting there all season. ---

With a new young’un to help care for, I think we all understand why you don’t have the time. Real life is more important than fantasy baseball, anyway. ---

So am I 7th or 8th in the draft order? I’m raring to go with my daring but actually logical picks! Gotham Guitaristas ---
