You know what? dilli has left me hangin every fuckin turn at this point, so I don't give a damn if he takes my guy....in fact, since he is so against sending a proxy list because "the few picks in between his previous pick and his current pick could influence his selection"--which hasn't bothered me since I send proxy lists for most of my picks--so I would actually ******* ENCOURAGE him to take my guy....so I will post my damn proxy list publicly......

1. Miguel Cabrera, DH/3b
2. Jim Hunter, SP

I apologize in advance to anyone who wanted either of those two! I'm just ready to lose my **** here! I have tried to be subtle. I have tried to be nice as pie. I have tried being honest and frank, and NOTHING has worked! Each round at this point, the draft gets to DBP at around 10 PM ET and I sit here for five ******* hours hoping against hope that he just MIGHT, just this time, send a proxy list or pick.....but never does. Sorry gang, I'm just about at the end of my rope....and I can hear kelly trying to calm me down..."Craig, it's ok...I am more bothered by owners in the middle of the day not picking for 5 hours when we are 5 hours ahead of the clock...".

Sorry, it just ****** me off when I have asked so many different ways for someone to send a simple ******* proxy list of what, maybe THREE players....and they just continue to ******* blow it off! Sorry kelly1, I have tried and tried to stay calm but this is the biggest blow up I have had in at least TEN DEALS! Cut me some slack for that ok lol?

Some of us are in calhoop's 25 year draft that started nine days after this one. We're also entering round 17 tonight.

It really is possible to draft off the clock and not stay stuck to your slots.

kbosch, it's like, **** I could understand if dilligafdbp has won a half dozen DEAL leagues about his aversion to sending a proxy list, but he HASN'T! Hell, I'll put my DEAL career record up against his and be SHOCKED if it's not better than his! But no, "I can't possibly send a proxy list because I have a spread sheet of each possible pick at each point in the ******* draft, so I NEED to know EXACTLY who has been picked at each pick so that I can adjust my cosine points, and analyze exactly what the analysts and analysis would say is the optimal selection when my turn comes up!

Bottom line is, if EVERYONE in ANY of my drafts sent a proxy list if they were picking in the top TEN or so picks of a following day round....think of how often we could get ahead of the clock and possibly even adjust the schedule so reflect that?

And honestly, how much do the selections of those ahead of you affect who you pick??? If I need a 2bman in round 15, I send a proxy list with 1. Robbie Cano 2. Buddy Myer 3, Chuck Knoblauch

How friggin hard is THAT??? If you are basing who has been picked in the 8 spots before you and basing your pick on that....well ****, you better have more ******* titles than kelly1 lol!

But let's be honest, that's a totally different draft where skipping owners is possible because not everyone is drafting from the same set of players. Not fair to compare IMO.

WOW!!!

What a $hit storm to wake up to first thing in the morn...

The whole spreadsheet/cosine thing is sooo funny b/c I am the least tech/computer guy here...Couldn't 'do' a spreadsheet iffn ya paid me a million bucks...Just not that smart...

And if it were as simple as "I need a 2B this rd", then I would totally agree w/ amerk...Truth is, I rarely know what direction I'm going w/ a pick until it's 'go' time...

The REAL issue here is amerk is a night owl, and I'm a morning kinda guy...Oil and water...

Chill dude...
