[Sinrman]

Thanks again for setting it up!

[Just Win Baby]

I'm guessing it's going to be about 3 days between my even round and odd round picks... definitely not excited about the 16 pick. Looking forward to doing this again, though.

[There it is]

AH! Back home again.

[Kruppe]

Thanks for the invite. Looking forward to it. Anybody care to share any tips?

[CalBear]

Geeze, another mid-late-round pick (#10 last year, #13 in 2009, #11 in 2008). And Jiggy sitting there two slots ahead to scam my picks again.

If you look in this forum for the previous Anarchy League 2 threads, there's a ton of great information on people's approaches to the format.

Short answer: It's different. The best teams are the ones who realize how the differences change player values. As long as their players don't get hurt.

Kruppe won Anarchy 3 last year...he probably doesn't need to many tips.

OK, but I've heard this is the big boys league. I can't rely on good luck anymore.

There's always your charm, wit, and personality.

Look, we all put our pants on one leg at a time (well, except for SLBD who is such a ladies man that he doesn't ever wear pants). Sure, the league will probably be a little more competitive, but it's not like we are PhD level fantasy footballers and you are in kindergarten. Clearly not the case. You'll do fine.

I thought this was to start yesterday at 8 am...?

Correct sir! Do we need to bump Ollie down to the 16th? David?

The draft is scheduled to start at 8:00 am on Saturday 8/20.

OK, more than 2.5 days in, we have 7 picks on the board. How long are we waiting until the timer gets turned on? This has traditionally been a slow draft, especially on the weekends, but this pace is unusually slow...

For starters, the timer won't go on until everyone makes at least one pick so I at least know everyone is alive and breathing. Secondly, I don't have time to babysit to be making replacement picks and sorting through the usual BS when someone misses a pick.

If someone wants to volunteer and handle all the administrative chores during the draft, I suppose that is an option.

I'm cool with whatever, just would like to know if there isn't going to be a clock so I don't have to check in as frequently.

Tap Tap Tap is this thing on!

May want to change the sub-heading to "The Real SLOW Anarchy League"

I emailed Yudkin about 4 hours ago and offered to step in for Jiggy after JWB told me there was a possible vacancy, but I've not heard back.

[David Yudkin]

I'm all in favor of CP taking over. Haven't been able to get on the league site all night or this morning, so I can't get him set up.

[David Yudkin]

Finally was able to swap Jigggy fo Spuds. He can pick whenever he wants. Password is anarchy2. Please add email address to the league site.

[Fiddles]

chris johnson at 14 is pretty crazy

[CalBear]

All right, we's rollin' now.

[Sonny Lubick Blowup Doll]

just woke up, let me find a guy.

Not much discussion going on here... I miss Bri.

Yeah, someone needs to start arguing about how they're going to dominate everyone with their two top TMQB picks.

This was the most predictable pick in the draft. I almost predicted it earlier but figured it is taboo to talk about undrafted players.

Hey, I passed on Desean at 2.06. Gonzo's good value at 3.11.

Just looked at your draft, Gonzo as TE13 is absurd. Good snarf at 4.16, no doubt.

Who did I forget to congratulate last year?

Me. I woulda been like top 5 with the two top team qb theory -- a real feat -- if not for a stupid auto-draft.

Also might wanna say something to Fiddles, he won a dogfight over a game radballs.

As of 8.1, 23 TEs are gone, with at least 13 more required to be taken. I'm surprised they haven't gone faster, and I'm happy to get a third at this point in the draft. Getting 160+ points from a skill position player at this point is outstanding.

Yeah, I didn't get why Ben Watson was hanging around at 7.11; he scored the same number of points as Miles Austin and LeSean McCoy last year. And TE scoring falls off pretty quickly in the 20s once you get into blocking TEs.
