Are we in a rain delay?

we're getting sorta close to the skip rule. hopefully everything is all good with tarheel

I'd advocate for not skipping him and just drafting a reasonable player for him in the event he comes back. Unsure what the precedent is if he does hit the 24 hour mark.

I'd would agree with that, or maybe skipping him for one pick so that he is officially skipped, let the next guy make his pick, then have the commish make a pick for the absent manager. Of course, I don't know how dh feels about changing rules mid-draft.

wow...easiest update ever...thanks tarheel


tarheel has until 9pm to make his pick...hopefully he shows

if not, i have reached out to amerk and ltb as possible replacements and asked for 4th round picks from them

id much rather one of them make the pick instead of me...if tarheel doesnt come back by his 5th round pick then one of them can just take over the team for good

Guys, I'm very sorry about the delay. My mom died on Wednesday. (She was the best. Cancer sucks.) I've been distracted all week by her final illness, her passing, and all the details that have to be handled with my family afterwards, though I still managed to keep up with picks and commentary through yesterday afternoon. Yesterday evening and all day today, I was distracted with issues we were sorting out and simply never made it back to the site. Again, very sorry that it resulted in a full day delay for the league, which I know was frustrating after having a long delay in the first round too.

I will likely continue to be distracted throughout the rest of the draft (or at least until her funeral next week), but would like to stay in the league and think I can manage that. However, I don't want another situation like that to happen again, so would request that in the future (for this draft) I be skipped after a delay of at least six hours from when it becomes my turn to pick. I'll eventually come back and make up any missed picks if that happens. I hope that will placate the league enough to let me stay in; if nothing else you should all benefit from me having less time to plan and think about my picks (as demonstrated by the Okafor pick that I already regret).

I feel stupid making a pick now. So sorry.

Man. Th… **** dude. I am so unbelievably sorry for you. I really can’t convey it. That is just a terrible situation. What you are going through… please be with your family.

Seriously, **** this league. We aren’t skipping you. Maybe pick an owner you trust to make picks on your behalf. You shouldn’t get ****** over for your mom dying man.

I remember losing my dad and we had a problematic relationship. You and your mom were close… I can’t imagine. Love you man, any positivity we can offer you, please let us know.
