Almost pulled the trigger on Big Jim in the first round, but the need at 2B was too great. My pick will be coming shortly...

I've never much cared for Tejada at SS, so we'll go across the bay and steal Rich Aurillia - SFG. Sitemailing...

I've played the Mets in Rule V before and I've always protected this guy with my five initial protects.... Since he's still available, I'll grab him...

Do you really think you're going to get keepers in 30 minutes?

it's wishful thinking, but if not, we just push back, I have gotten some already, by teams off board

are we still sticking to the times? i know my pick, but i certainly don't want to step on any toes if -- for example -- pugs hasn't picked by 1235.

Just one guy's opinion, but we don't think it is reasonable to throw out a schedule mid-morning and expect some one will be ready to go without more notice. It would be one thing if the schedule was out there yesterday, but not same day. We would wait for pugs to make the pick.

My opinion is the same as jose can u c. Everyone else had this weekend to get their picks in. Kudos to holleybard for being considerate.

I concur. You should probably wait for pugs. And if the keepers are in by the end of the day, then we post a schedule for tomorrow. If not, we wait. That's been the usual protocol.

i agree with llama and vegas. but i have to admit this is the FIRST time i've been called considerate...LOL.

That's okay, holleybard. I still think you're a jerk!

we will wait, I threw out the schedule to just try to get it rolling, I will update since I probably won't see Round 2 finished till a bit later, and then will have to wait for keepers, I will post with tomorrow the official start time of Rd. 3, unless there are keepers that I don't have. I will keep you posted, will be offline today at about 130pm, probably checking later in the evening, PST

thanks guys for not sticking to those times that were posted after my last visit to the thread
