The more I think about this, I realize that my default date does seem to be liked. There is a 90% chance I will be able to make it, because unless things go horribly wrong and I am in ICU or something I will still be able to use my laptop at the hospital.

I just won't be drinking beer like I normally do.

 

[UnoMOTO]

Ugh....I just put 2+2 together and the 28th is my first night of bowling.

Anyway…It will be a pleasure whooping up on you guys this year with the team that yahoo picks for me.

 

[UnoMOTO]

Here is what an ESPN auto draft did for me over the weekend in my other league. I think its a good start and I might do well.

Kurt Warner, QB
Adrian Peterson, RB
Marshawn Lynch, RB
Knowshon Moreno, RB
Greg Jennings, WR
T.J. Houshmandzadeh,WR
Zach Miller, TE
Panthers D/ST,
John Kasay, K

BENCH
PLAYER, TEAM POS
Antonio Bryant,WR
Kyle Orton, QB
Donnie Avery, WR
David Garrard, QB
Percy Harvin, WR

 

[Studentdriver]

So we're still on for tomorrow night?

 

[FoolKiller]

So we're still on for tomorrow night?

No one has said no, so I am assuming so.

 

[UnoMOTO]

Not much hype about the draft tonight. I will not be there but who is planning on making it?

 

[Speedy Samurai]

i will be there with bells on. Of course, you won't hear them because we are doing this over the internet.

 

[Omnis]

If it's tonight I'll make it.

 

[JFM92_GTRacer]

I'll be drafting the team that'll win the championship this year.

Don't know why you guys even bother playing

 

[Omnis]

Alright I'm ready to go. 2.5 hours left to wait. Got my Burger King on the way and everything.

 

[Max Powers]

I'm pumped up for the draft. I was pretty happy with the team I drafted in my money league the other day. Hopefully I can improve upon my finish last year. Lookin forward to playing with all of you this year.

 

[FoolKiller]

I am working on a limited connection at the hospital, but will attempt to be there. If I get disconnected then I'll deal.

 

[Omnis]

How long do the drafts usually take? I'm ready for bed. Got the BK itis.

 

[Max Powers]

I think my one on yahoo two nights ago took about an hour or so, I'd expect a bit longer than that since we have 12 teams and my other league has 10.

Here is the Draft order for tonight, just logged into Yahoo.

1. TRU PUNX
2. Marc's Marauders
3. Wicky Radsters
4. Cocky's Caravan
5. RATS OFF TO YA (That's me)
6. The Stiff-Arms
7. Renegades of Funk
8. Mr. Yamagucci
9. The Happy Monks
10. Godzilla's Gangstas
11. Centurion Eagles
12. The Shovel Bums

 

[FoolKiller]

I am trying to get in now, but this connection sucks.

Yep, I can't get in. Have fun guys.

 

[Northstar]

I almost forgot about the draft until like 5 minutes before. I think I still had a decent draft though.

 

[Speedy Samurai]

I went with 2 WR in the first 2 rounds. With all the two-headed rushing attacks these days, maybe this is the better way to go. My receivers almost killed me last year. (except for you Calvin Johnson, smooch).

 

[Omnis]

No, Omnis, you cannot have the entire Dolphins roster.

And I was so close before Max did me dirty. I can let a Dolphins slide, but the entire defense? That's bogus.

 

[JFM92_GTRacer]

I am working on a limited connection at the hospital, but will attempt to be there. If I get disconnected then I'll deal.

What are you doing at a hospital? Are you ok?

Anyway the draft went horrid for me. I didn't get my dude Deangelo Williams.

QBs- Jay Cutler, Matt Cassell, Mike Vick
RBs- Steven Jackson, Steve Slaton, Felix Jones
WRs-Terrell Owens, Vincent Jackson, Desean Jackson, Crabtree, Avery
TE-Boss
Def-Bears

 

[Omnis]

What are you doing at a hospital? Are you ok?

Yeah he's getting tests and maintenance done because ninjas kidnapped him with the five-point exploding-heart technique when he was a baby.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the five point thingy. Get well Foolkiller

 

[Studentdriver]

Screwed up my WR situation and had to take a fourth, sitting with only Carlson from SEA at TE. Not bad otherwise, I guess.

Oh, except for not getting Lindell. He's bad consistent. But at least I got a dome kicker.

 

[Joey D]

*sigh* I got busy doing things last night and wasn't able to live draft, oh well I'll make the best of it. I really can't be any worse than the Detroit Lions.

 

[FoolKiller]

What are you doing at a hospital? Are you ok?

I'm good. Read the details here.

I am happy that Yahoo gave me Forte, but not much else. Of course, I had a crappy draft spot too.

All this means is that I will have to win on my brains, not my players' brawn.

 

[godzilla157890]

Dang, I had everything plugged in but my computer. (Plugged in my radio so i could listen to my local HS football team, the Reeds Spring Wolves) As a result i missed the draft and Yahoo made me pay tha price by giving me the worst QB in the league. (gulp) The QB for the S.F. 49'ers. Does anybody want to trade me that player for another QB beacause I have a feeling that the San Francisco 49'ers will SUCK again. (Then again, maybe that's just me!)

 

[Northstar]

Since when did SF have a QB?

At least you have Palmer, who if healthy should be good.

 

[UnoMOTO]

Other then McNabb which was brutal on me a few seasons ago with his inconsistency, I am pretty happy with what I have ended up with. I’ve already made a few small moves and for now this is what I will come to week 1 with.

I have “ALL DAY” AP on both of my FFL teams. I will live and die with the Vikings this year.



QB - Donovan McNabb, Kerry Collins

WR - Reggie Wayne, Antonio Bryant, Torry Holt

RB - Adrian Peterson, Clinton Portis, LenDale White, Cedric Benson

TE - Kellen Winslow, Vernon Davis

K - Ryan Longwell

DEF - New York

 

[Max Powers]

I'm liking my team, besides the Miami Defense, which kind of worries me.

QB - Tom Brady, Jake Delhomme
RB- Maurice Jones-Drew, Thomas Jones, Leon Washington, Julius Jones, Beanie Wells
WR - Steve Smith, Chad Ochocinco, Eddie Royal, Chris Chambers
TE - Vinsanthe Shiancoe
K - Mason Crosby
DEF - Miami

 

[Omnis]

If you're more comfortable with Carolina D, we can always trade. Our defense is horrible this year.
