@Eephus

I'm about to go into class and I won't have a moment to myself today until after 5, so when you pick, just give me the top-rated kicker left on your board. Mucho gracias.

 

[Eephus]

just give me the top-rated kicker left on your board.

My kicker board. LOL

 

[plinko]

I might take an eephus kicker but we’ll see, seem to be crawling to the finish

Bump because the Genrepalooza thread being above this one confused me

 

[Eephus]

Bump. Song of the day

The Cure - Grinding Halt

 

[Ilov80s]

Sorry about that, kind of caught in a few things. I’ll take any kicker.

 

[dkp993]

Sorry about that, kind of caught in a few things. I’ll take any kicker.

You got it….

 

[plinko]

@Eephus is in charge of kicker distribution

 

[Neal Cassady]

@Truebluey

Actually, Truebluey asked Eephus to pick his kicker? So Ilov80s seems to be saying skip him and he will pick up one later, Truebluey asked Eephus to pick the top guy on his board, so that means Eephus is up with 2 picks for Truebluey and himself? Confusing..

 

[Eephus]

Sorry about that, kind of caught in a few things. I’ll take any kicker.

@Ilov80s do you want me to draft a kicker for you? This has apparently become a thing

 

[Eephus]

I'm taking this kicker responsibility way too seriously and yes it will involve dice.

 

[Ilov80s]

Sorry about that, kind of caught in a few things. I’ll take any kicker.

@Ilov80s do you want me to draft a kicker for you? This has apparently become a thing

Please

 

[Eephus]

I'm going to draft kickers for @Ilov80s and @Truebluey now and will do the same for @plinko when it's his turn.

Methodology: 11 of the16 teams have drafted a kicker so far. I've taken the top 5 remaining kickers from my Kicker Board (which didn't exist an hour ago and is basically an amalgamation of ESPN and Yahoo's ratings) and sorted them in alphabetical order. I'll roll one d5 for ilov80s and then one d4 for Truebluey.

 

[Eephus]

ilov80s roll

1d5, rolled once.

Roll set 1
Die rolls: 3
Roll subtotal: 3
Roll total: 3

16.10 - Brandon McManus - PK - Denver Broncos

 

[Eephus]

Truebluey roll

1d4, rolled once.

Roll set 1
Die rolls: 4
Roll subtotal: 4
Roll total: 4

16.11 - Ryan Succop - PK - Tampa Bay Buccaneers

 

[Eephus]

I now kind of wish I hadn't drafted a kicker in round 15

 

[Eephus]

16.12 - Bryan Edwards - WR - Atlanta

Little Feat - Oh Atlanta

---

Closing out my draft with some Little Feat in honor of @wikkidpissah

I've managed to convince myself that Edwards is going to have a big year although I'll probably end up dropping him before the season kicks off.

 

[Eephus]

@neal cassady @krista4

Checks to see if they still need a kicker

 

[rockaction]

This is awesome. LOL.

Dice-picked kickers!

 

[plinko]

My partner chose this one, because I was getting stumped.

I had a hard time not typing that as "The Aristocats."

Y'all can really hear it now

Thanks rock, NV, and everybody.. super fun draft!

 

[rockaction]

Oh my oh my.

I do believe that we've finished.

 

[Truebluey]

Yay us!!!!!!

Well done everybody!

Looking forward to a very competitive season.

P.S. What's the going rate to get your league opponent to take a dive that week?

 

[krista4]

Oh my oh my.

I do believe that we've finished.

 

[rockaction]

Well, NV has apparently been entering into Yahoo and I've exported a file to my email address from Draft Dominator. We should be up and running soon...

Just want to thank everybody for a successful draft. When we get on the website, I'll have more, but for now....we're done!!

Thanks again to everybody who participated and helped us along!!!

 

[facook]

Thanks @rockaction and everyone for a very fun draft. Really makes for a fun week or so in the doldrums of late Summer.

Now, if we could just get some of that life in the Shining Path draft... :think:

 

[Northern Voice]

Check your rosters on Yahoo please, I have been known to reverse picks, etc..

 

[krista4]

We're coming for you, @simey.

 

[Northern Voice]

Thanks @rockaction and everyone else for keeping this going, really glad it was able to happen again this year.

 

[facook]

Oh, and in case it was a question, my "theme" was "Songs that I liked in high school."

 

[Pip's Invitation]

I now kind of wish I hadn't drafted a kicker in round 15

I mean, kickers are kind of inherently a dice roll.

(Unless you take Justin Tucker.)

 

[Pip's Invitation]

16.12 - Bryan Edwards - WR - Atlanta

Little Feat - Oh Atlanta

---

Closing out my draft with some Little Feat in honor of @wikkidpissah

Although, what I remember most about wikkid's discussions of Little Feat is how impressed he was with Lowell George's talent and personality. And Oh Atlanta isn't a George song. Though it's the only Little Feat song that fits the player.

 

[Pip's Invitation]

Like half my players have a week 9 bye. I did not pay attention to that at all during the draft.

Congrats to

(checks site)

Amon-Ra St. Brown's Beaver on their week 9 win.
