"Artists need to make money to eat and to continue to make art. Artists used to rely on middlemen to collect their money on their behalf, thereby rendering themselves innocent of cash-handling in the public eye. Artists will now be coming straight to you (yes YOU, you who want their music, their films, their books) for their paychecks. Please welcome them. Please help them. Please do not make them feel badly about asking you directly for money.” -Amanda Palmer

I should clarify that I'm fine with either way, although I have a slight preference for plays off.

Playoffs. Cause it makes me feel like I've accomplished something if I make 'em.

Playoffs are a contrived abomination. The winner of this year will be the fake team that has acquired the most left handed midwesterners.

I'll set us up the playoffs.  We have the option of 4, 6 or 8 teams making the "post season."  I think the Top 4 should suffice for playoffs in a 10-team league.

Then I'll flick whatever switch is necessary to get us to draftin'.

In my mind it's a lever that sticks up from the floor, like the one Conan O'Brien pulled to activate a Walker, Texas Ranger clip.

Our league status has been updated to "Ready to Draft."

Turns out it was much easier than I thought.  My hardhat and goggles were completely unnecessary.

Your auto draft will be completed between now and 11:59 PM PT on Tuesday, Apr 6.
So, possibly after 3 days of baseball? For shame, yahoo.

Which team? I tweaked my draft preferences and my hitters seem inordinately stacked to me.
