That’s right, Wilson. And he’s the projected #1 fantasy scorer for the eighth year in a row.

Yup, we’ve got enough. Let’s make this happen on Monday. Of course, if anyone wants to do one right now, there’s nothing stopping you now that the private draft function is available, you can start your own.

But it won’t be nearly as much fun without me kicking your ass!

I’ll open the draft when I get to work, and you’ll have to sign up on your own. It’ll start when it fills up.

Just a warning, I am out of town starting tomorrow until late monday afternoon, no computer access… You guys can make my first couple picks for me if I am holding things up.

I think that one of us should sign up **mouthbreather** ’s spot, but he should be back in time to make (most of) his own picks. Except for “He Hate Me” in the first round.

I initially wanted spot #5, but I don’t care at all if you want to give me the last pick.

I land back in Alanta around 4.30 monday afternoon, so assuming no delays or traffic jams (well, more than usual in this fookin city) I should be able to be back on for a pick ~ 6.30 or 7pm

The thing is though, that you can’t assign picks with the private drafts. You can’t sign other people up, either. I suppose we can use one of my alternate accounts, which is no problem. mouth, if you want to send me your top ten predrafts, I’ll enter them in, so we can get into the second round by monday night.

</div>

If we start Monday day there will be ample time for **mb** to make his pick. Set an 8 or 10 hour limit and just let the clock run; unless he gets one of the top 3 or 4 picks it may not even get to him by the time he’s ready to go.

The package has been received. Repeat, the package has been received.

Mouthbreather, you really weren’t kidding when you said you wanted “He Hate Me” were you? But I think what is most suprising is your second choice of Brian Boitano. Better hope you’re not behind WL in the draft.

Hey guys, not to rock the boat much but I’ll be offline from 5PM Monday until 5AM Tuesday (and more than likely until 1PM after that) due to work. The 8 hour draft times would probably end up being enough unless my pick falls right at the start of my shift. I’m not sure how flexible things are, and how fast this first day’s picks will go. What do you experinced folks think?

Bump.

So whats the story here? **Munch** , did you ever set up that private draft or what?

My email in my profile works, so shoot me a message. Rumor was that it was supposed to start tomorrow sometime, but since there hasn’t been any activity here over the last 3 days or so, I’m not sure what to expect. I’d like toget in if things are still up in the air. If it gets pushed back to Tuesday all the better for me, but I’d still like to play if not.

Hey **Munchie** , let’s do make sure we know how and where to sign on for this puppie before the picks start.

I’ll probably be able to do a draft this week, but I may have to email Munch-chi-chi my picks later in the week. Let’s get this party started.
