    as luck would have it, i will be on a plane at 8pm on august 24th (the scheduled time for our draft) for work-related stuff.

    if there are no objections, could we move the draft to tuesday, the 23rd?

    this is the second time i've requested a draft time change, and i promise it will be the last! :)

    I'm quite certain that I'll be way too drunk/excited/entercrazyadjectivehere to be drafting anything at Alpine!

    The 23rd is good for me.

    I'm possibly interested in joining if spots are still open, but I've never been in a keeper/franchise league. With such a large roster/bench, are the drafts a couple hours long? Is the general strategy to pick young players or do you play to win for one particular season? Maybe I'll just take the plunge and give it a shot . . .

    all good questions...

    most drafts, regardless of league type, that i've been last a couple of hours. i expect this one to be a tick longer. yahoo puts a time limit (two minutes i think) on each pick so it generally moves along pretty quickly

    i've never played this sort of league either, but my plan is to win every year. :lol:

    and yes, there are still 4 spots open.

    Yeah, I really don't see how this is a problem...

  • JTHJTH Posts: 3,238
    So the draft is officially scheduled on the 23rd (for now)? The original post still says the 24th.

    Also, is this strictly an online thing or are you thinking of doing a live-and-in-person gathering for anyone who's able to make it?

    I could probably do that. If the location works for you, I know Durty Nellie's has free wifi.

    Fox and Hound also has draft party deals http://www.foxandhound.com/locations/bloomingdale.aspx

    Not saying anything against Nellie's, just another option!

    More pressing though, we need to fill up the league roster!

    Oh, I drive. A lot. I just don't do it if it can be avoided.

    Don't pick a place to suit me. Pick the one that works best for all involved.

    Besides, I just checked the schedule and if we're not done by 9:35, I'll have to stick around until 12:35. So I'll probably end up driving anyway.
