Well, that should bring a screeching halt to picks.

The complete all-timer lists for our 1901-1910 drafts have been posted. Dig in!

Evidently it did

will we be setting up a private forum for the league ?

I'm sure we will, once the actual league gets set up.

Any word from ybj??

He's reading all his site mails. If he doesn't make a pick by the end of the day I'll send him a site mail to see what's happening. He may just be doing research.

Well, he's got plenty of time since the draft isn't starting till Thursday. Now that we're all set, I wish it was starting sooner.

I'm still pretty heavy into the research, but the first few picks don't take a lot of work.

I agree-sent a site mail to ybjsports

No response from ybjsports-will send one more site mail. If he does not respond, I will post for a replacement in the classifieds.

ybj has every right to wait until his time slot on Thursday to announce a pick, but I also think if he's reading your sitemails that he's obligated to at least let us know that he's still in and will be making a pick at some point. I'll bump up the old thread in the classifieds so we can try and find someone fast if he doesn't get back to you.

I agree. He might be working on a trade, or something else. That being said, there are so many who just disappear, it would be courteous just to post that he is still around.

ybj responded to my last site mail and has withdrawn from the league. I will site mail tsb to change the classified ad to show we definitely need 1. Regretfully this may delay the draft until we get a replacement. Very frustrating.

Just put up a new classified ad.

I think we need to go on with the draft as scheduled. If we don't have a replacement by the time ysb's pick comes up tomorrow, I will begin picking for the Chicago NL team. I'd rather have a new owner in place, but I don't want to us to stall out before we even get started.
