@achewood I once had the idea that, if only for a moment each night, everyone in the world was asleep at the same time. It made the world manageable.

Time to schedule the draft I think. Let's do this.

Any desire to change format from snake to something more confusing?

And I vote for snake.

People are always going on about the awesomeness of the auction format.  I have no idea, never having done one.

I understand snake is much simpler which is why I think it's best for our ragtag league. But I'm open to the auction format if it's what the people want.

Commish, what do you think?

I know that I am now blocked from Yahoo Fantasy Sports at work, so that kind of sucks.

I also know that I am against any sort of draft format that doesn't feature an auto-draft option.  "Snake?"  "Auction?"  I know not the meaning of these terms, and cannot yet be bothered to click over there and look them up.  But as long as I can autopick, I'm cool.

Hey, we had our draft! How about that.

At least I didn't accidentally draft Aaron Hernandez.

Hard Knocks has done nothing to ease my concerns over Matt Ryan's talents.

Picked a good week to start Matt Ryan over Robert Wilson.

I find myself up early on Sunday and Football doesn't start for a couple of hours yet so I'm looking for some pregame action. I turn to the NFL website. Appears they have a Sunday pregame show just like all the networks. They all have a panel of meathead ex players saying a whole lot of nothin'. Obviously Fox is the gold standard with Terry Bradshaw, and Howie Long, Jimmy Johnson. It's a steep drop off from there. CBS with Dan Marino, Shannon Sharpe, and Bill Cower are ok, but the rest is just shit. The group on the NFL network including Kurt Warner and Warren Sapp are just the worst. Thoughts?
