The SuperBowl is 1 game and I love football and this day as much as anyone here (I will not miss a play of the game) but taking the day off in off the clock mode is a joke to me. Last year we were not too affected by it because of whom was picking to keep it moving but obviously we are seeing the worse case scenario this year.

I don't know about you guys but I say lets revisit this off the clock mode rule for Super Bowl Sunday if amerk1180 is willing . amerk I totally appreciate what you do to make all of this happen but I just want to let you know along with the rest of the league how I feel about it .

Just a reminder, due to Super Bowl Sunday, and its near "National Holiday" kind of status, we WILL NOT draft ON the clock tomorrow (Sunday). We WILL continue in off the clock mode though, so try to be ready when it is your turn, continue to site mail ahead and so on. We will continue the same round on Monday ON the clock, wherever we leave off Sunday.

So, for example, let's say the final pick of the night tomorrow is the 3:30 one by dilligaf. Then on Monday, the first "on the clock" pick is SouthHeat at 4 pm, so no one can be skipped until that pick. But everyone can continue to pick, in order with no skips, until the slow down to the clock. Make sense to everyone? If it doesn't, feel free to sitemail me.

Probably not the best example because SouthHeat would never have halted the draft.

Of tommy Holmes, cuz who needs a 1b anyways?????

I would second the idea that there is no need to be off the clock today. Game doesn't start until after 6, EST, and everyone should have a phone with Internet on it by now where you can quickly check on here.
