just to be clear, it was me who came after him not deanod. i grew impatient with him for not finishing his obligation of drafting his team here when he seemed to have time to find and post pictures of boobies in the pit. now don't get me wrong, i like boobies, but i also have a responsibility to the other 23 owners in a league.

kneeneighbor might show dedication in some leagues, but he was unhappy with the team he built (especially after losing the st. louis OF) so he bailed on us. he can find/use whatever excuse he finds convenient.

I'm done wasting my time with this conversation.  Let's move on.
I invoke my prior statement.

* So... we're just waiting for the last owner to pick a relief unit & we're ready to roll with the 2-Round Supplemental Draft?

Yes.  I am going to ask that everyone just be a little patient and let me handle the situation.

Sounds good. You're doing a great job of keeping this together in the face of owners dropping out in the middle of the draft. It's Thanksgiving week in the US so I'm definitely cool with waiting until next week to get the draft up and running.

Thanks, joe, and thanks for all your help thus far.  I would have liked to have done the supplemental draft this week and that's still possible, but I'd say right now next week is likely.  In the meantime, with the exception of relief pitchers (TBA for obvious reasons), the list of available players for the aforementioned draft is up for viewing.

Sounds good, Matt... thanks for all the hard work you have done !

Running a League is no picinic... a lot of work & headache for $12.95...lol... I'm crazy (or stupid, lol) enough to run 3 Live progressives & have run 3 different non-Live Progressives... and whew... it's a 2nd job for sure.  So thanks for doing it !

Once we get the Relief Unit filled, we can always start off clock until next Monday or Tuesday

Thanks- appreciate it.   As I said before, this is the first league I've ever run.  I'm just going to do the best I can with whatever comes and it helps having a good group.  There have been some odd circumstances, but I think it could have been worse.  And I'm still confident we'll get those 2 spots filled at some point.

As soon as the last two relief units are filled, I'll post the list of relievers and set a date and time slots for the supplemental draft.  Drafting off the clock before the actual start will be not only allowed, but encouraged (of course if you can't, you can't and that's fine).  Proxy picks will be allowed.  I'll set up yet another thread for that when the times comes.

And we're done!  Woke up to find ct's pick for his RP, so I picked one for the open team.  Since no one can raise either bid, both are closed.  I will get going on the supplemental draft immediately.

if deals are still made including cash, we can still move up and down the draft board? how long can we do this, when is  the draft board set in stone... or is it already?

Figured someone would ask that and it's a good question.  I'm declaring the draft order set, so any trade from here on out will not affect the draft position.

that just put the kabosh on some actrive trade talk.....
11/23/2010 12:51 PM
You can still trade the picks themselves. 
11/23/2010 1:47 PM
Draft will be Monday and Tuesday.

I think we should name the two league owned teams:
