Hope everything is okay, LTB. Having said that, I don't want to hear about this picking blind business, I think that Dwight season is going to be a monster, even in this league of superstars.

All, I have gone ahead and set up the clock to start 24 hours from now. I projected the draft out thru Fri 1/16 which is the latest we should need, at a rate of 12 picks per day. I will move it forward it needed. 

For now, we'll consider DH's pick the Monday 9AM slot, and proceed from there.

Some people seem new to draft leagues. I'd just like to recommend that people forward their SM's to their Email. If you are between a couple guys and taking your time or dealing with a RL emergency, I think everyone understands that, but it can get frustrating to other owners if you "didn't even know it was my (your) turn".

I don't want to skip in round 1 but big pete is definitely MIA.  He did open my 12/31 SM about the draft but none since then. I think we give him Monday, but then replace his team Tuesday if need be. I already have a volunteer (dh) to take the team.

This is crazy. I sent bigpete a sm at 12:36 am today and it says that he opened it. WTH? Also I sent the next owner up aticus a site mail at the same time and he hasn't opened his. We may need to skip and replace them both.

Skip pete now and let someone else in who actually gives a ****. Not a single f'ing pick in 24 hours just midway through the 1st rd is horseshit. A 1st rd pick is not difficult and he knew is was beginning.

that escalated quickly

Well sly and I are from the PDX. The weather sucks so doing fun things outside is not an option and the Blazers just lost at home to the Hawks. We are in fowl mood and don't have time for these games. Which reminds me Go Ducks !

proxy sent to jkaye for whenever pete gets replaced tomorrow

Guys, I am going to be out today. Let's give Pete thru his time slot, and I'll send one more sm now. At 11am I'll post DH's pick for Pete. If Pete returns by tomorrow (maybe it's a long weekend at a cabin with no wifi), we can let him keep the team with DH's pick. But either way we will move past his pick when the time is up.

Time is up... I say we follow the NFL protocol.. Just skip him and he can pick whenever he gets too it.
