I can't do a draft from work. Weekend afternoons are okay, just not weekday afternoons.

I did a live draft in the Yahoo league I commish last year. Not everyone was able to make it so the computer picked for those who weren't there based on their player rankings and who was available.

You are college educated, could you please use whole words and not net or leet speak.

I don't understand why it would be to much harder to add two additional letters, especially for "you".

I'm not going to get in a war with you, your reply tells me the type of person that you are, which is an idiot.

Proper English shouldn't be all that difficult for a college educated individual.

I am not the greatest speller and I sometimes have difficulty with grammar, but at least I make an effort....

Nobody asked you about your grammatical efforts so who the hell are you to question me about my post??

Last I checked I wasn't in school anymore either... I do have a job and one of the things I DON'T get paid to do is to go behind each and every last post to see if 'idiots' are crossing thier "T"s and dotting thier "I"s...and proper English is from England.


*** Listen....it's the sound of the SPELL CHECK PO' PO'....RUNNNNNNN!!!.....HIDE YOUR RUN ON SENTENCES!!!!!! ***

You wanna advise me about my grammar...u can be my sex and song advisor...whenever I need some f**kin' advice on a post...I'll whistle for you.

You ever thought to yourself that this may have been one of those good times to keep your thoughts about other people's posts to yourself?

Then you wouldn't be here 'warring' with me over words.


since the edit button is your best friend...why don't u use it to delete your posts and we can act like this never happened...

*** New Draft Time ***

All right, just because it came to me today, seeing as many of us are preferring a weekend draft, what about either THIS Saturday or sunday (Aug. 4-5), or three weeks later (Aug. 25-26)? I'm unavailable next weekend, and I believe possibly the following weekend as well (and we're coming up soon to the beginning of the season!)

Post here, discuss, whatever - let's just keep it fun!

So I just joined the league this evening. Hope that's not a problem.

I'm actually moving (cities and states!) in about 12 hours so it would be *lovely* not to do the draft this weekend. I'll need the time to finish putting the new place together. And I'll be without internet much of Saturday unless it's before noon Central Time. If it must be, it must. Although I'd really love to not have to Autodraft.

And sorry I was so slow at joining the league. Between the Bar Exam and moving places, I've been a little behind on my greekchat checking.

Sunday would be good....

Deadbear, if we all agree to do the draft this weekend and u aren't available, just set your pre draft ranks and the system will draft as proxy for you...just make sure you set it deep so that way you get a good portion of players that u want!



**Looking around for spell check cops**

Quoting myself, but anyways...

My conflicts for next weekend changed - does everyone want to keep the original time (Saturday at 11am PDT) or even switch it to next Sunday (the 12th)?

I apologize for the lack of communication - I meant to post this last night and time got away from me

The original time works fine for me (and better than the 12th in fact).

If we have an odd number of teams, are you going to make a dummy team? I don't think we can do head-to-head without an even number.
