Apolyton Fantasy Football DRAFT THREAD!

[Frozzy]

I like the rules. No mix-ups or "but if my player gets injured" crap

[Imran Siddiqui]

I figured we needed some rules for this stuff and they've been too rigid for the last few years anyway.

[Berzerker]

Chris' rule is that you can change your BAPAY within 12 picks of your original BAPAY pick.

That hasn't been the rule before. The rule has been you can't change your BAPAY if the person following you picks (that's how I remember it anyway).

[Berzerker]

I'd like to call for a vote on this matter: (I know, I'm a baby)

If 2/3rds vote yes, Slow gets Steve Smith and Imran gets to replace Ricky Williams with an available player only, not players who've been taken. I understand the reason for BAPAYs but I think we need some flexibility, at least for the first 5 or 6 rounds when picks are really important. This should be fun and it ain't fun getting BAPAYed in the first few rounds nor is it fun losing your first or second pick to an early retirement or get injured. If it happens later on in the draft it's still a bitter pill but one that goes down alot easier than losing an early pick.

I vote yes

[Berzerker]

C'mon Kalius, you'd want to replace an early BAPAY or injury too if it happened to you.

"Do unto others as you'd have them do unto you"

[Zopperoni]

It's fine with me if Sloww and Imran want their picks replaced.

[SlowwHand]

i'm going to start leaving lists.
Geting called stupid is hard on my heart.

[reismark]

If we're still waiting for a final vote to determine whether or not Sloww and Imran get to replace their picks, put me down for yes on both AS LONG AS the clock doesn't start for me until this gets resolved.

(Of course, I now say a big hearty "F**K YOU" to Ricky, because I was targeting Rudi Johnson here and now Imran gets to steal him just before I can take him.)

If this has already been resolved... tell me that ASAP. I've got a bunch of things to do today and I don't want to unnecessarily delay this draft any more than it already has been.

Man, the Jets fans around me must be doing happy dances this morning... Miami's screwed.

[-Jrabbit]

I fully support the actions of the commisioner.

I have no objections to the changes in Imran's and Sloww's picks.

The 6-pick BAPAY delay is fine as long as players subsequently drafted are not affected.

Ricky Williams should be declared a free agent (can be drafted by anyone). So if he unretires (or someone wants to take a chance), he's fair game, and there will be no whining or rule-changing at that point. (Cool, Imram?)

This is supposed to be for fun, guys. Let's try to keep it that way.

[gjramsey]

I have no objections to the change in picks either. This is for fun, and bragging rights.

If we were playing for big f'ing bucks, then I would be putting up a fuss!

I also vote yes w/ this stipulation.

Lets draft

[Tuberski]

YES! already, get on with the draft!

ACK!

[Imran Siddiqui]

That what my rule trys to say (whether it succeeded is another matter ). If their is an objection by someone who was picking, we'll have to work something out.

Ricky Williams should be declared a free agent

Yep, my rule states that as well. I give up all rights to Rickey.

If you want you can pick someone I'll tell you in PM and we can trade the picks.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Btw, it seems there is acceptance of the new rules here. So Reismark is up and has 24 hours from 1:00 Sunday.

Keeping this in mind, Kyrandia selects (again) Travis Henry, RB Buffalo Bills.

Make that trade happen, Imran.
