Ok I suggest everyone rank their draft choices, I'll give it a couple more days to see if we pick up a 12th player then green light this bitch before opening week. Once I flip the switch, everyone is drafted in 72  hours according to either your preferences, or the pre-set player rankings.

[Edit] As I was typing this the burger guy joined. Cool.

Would it be possible to move the draft back until after the third preseason week?  Generally at least one person will be screwed by injury if we draft this early.

Otherwise I'm going to have to remember to rank my guys at some point.

Ok, fair warning then. I will press the go-go button on Wednesday. This would mean the draft would be completed by Friday.

I got Eli Manning and an otherwise respectable team. My defense of New England and New York is pretty unbeatable. Id be open to trades for one of them.

A-CAP's kicker is the bomb.  I had him last year when I knew nothing about him - and he consistently brought home the bacon.  I figure its because Dallas couldn't finish off their drives last year.

Yeah, you basically have the best 2 wide receivers in football. Did you pre-rank them or did it just come out like that? Cause, wow.

Dear NFL;

Glad to see you kicked off your season yesterday afternoon, I've been looking forward to it as usual.

One thing: my employer doesn't recognize you guys as a holiday occasion so I missed whatever thing that was that went on.

Regards,

Dude!

I didn't even think about you guys out there in Pacific Time.  It seemed a little odd that they were starting the game at 7 EDT.  Not to worry, it was a pretty shitty game anyway.

Now I'm trying to get my head around going to a football game at 10:00 a.m.  WTF?

I dunno.  I'd rather miss the first quarter of the game, but then be able to actually see the end, instead of having to stay up until past midnight.

Central and Mountain are definitely the best for sports.  Central is nice, but Mountain, I think, will end up being the best cause it doesn't start too early (though the NBA playoffs started way earlier in the day then i was ready for, I think cause I mainly watched western conference playoffs before) and ends with an extra hour to go out and do stupid things.
