    • I take cash, checks, money order, thanks, hate mail, and insults. I'm sorry but I cannot accept strikes to the face or genitals at this time, thank you for your understanding.

      • I'm protesting the inclusion of Gaines Adams on the bust list. Dying shouldn't be held against him. I move to re-conduct the lottery on the basis of this error.

        • Why, how'd that pick work out for the Buccaneers (and Bears)?

          Ain't no bigger bust than death.

            12.5 sacks and 2 picks for a young player in his first two years is not bad. He also scored a TD.

            The Bears didn't think he was a bust because they gave up a 2nd rounder to get him.

            • Slowwy at the end with Albert.

              I wonder if this is the year I finally get a pick higher than 10th.

                I hold in my hands the power to make Sloww freak out every round! muhahahaha


                Also, I take full responsibility for jinxing the draft order:

                • Ok, I'm in, EPW can flip the switch now.

                  As far as settings, here's my proposal based on what's been mentioned. TEs are added to flex. QBs will get fewer points overall and deep passes are relatively rewarded more than dumpoffs (shaky on this one, but...). Return yards are nerfed as I mentioned before. Defensive players are bumped a bit, with an emphasis on plays that are more predictable (tackles) over plays that are more random (turnovers). If there are deep objections by this weekend then we can discuss it, otherwise we'll go with it.

                    Any chance we can move this to a weekend or later in the evening? I have to work late some nights without much warning.

                    • thx EPW

                      anybody else missing time the 2nd half of August? you know the drill, make lists or ask someone to pick for you

                      no rush on the idp, not even sure we got enough for a league yet

                      we'll need the league id (password is poly), that should appear under the settings

                      and if anyone has any gripes about settings, speak up

                            • ****ing Jaguar. Just try to tell me that the event of me picking last with Alby on the front side wasn't schemed. I hate your guts and liver, Jaguar.

                                Would the sunday evening the day before that monday work? I'm pretty set on having this in the evening and not too late because of you east coasters.
