While we are sort of paused, I have a my big in person fantasy draft tomorrow. I will likely be unavailable but I will be drunk and could pop in for a bad decision. Who knows. I think some other people mentioned drafts or other such events this weekend that might make them unavailable?

Yeah, I'll be unavailable most of tomorrow as I'm hosting my long time draft.

Maybe we should take that day off with so many people “missing” so people don’t need to keep checking in?

I would say if someone is around and wants to pick tomorrow, go for it. But also no pressure to either. If you're busy don't worry about it.
 
Re scheduling, I'm not around a whole lot over the weekend due to family activities, and I'm not available on Monday night because that's when my auction league drafts.

Similar to me - next few days through Monday will be sporadic at best

I would say just check in whenever you can, PM someone if it's getting close. We will just do our best to keep the train moving even if it's slowly. But we are in no rush and don't feel any pressure.
 
7.05 QB Justin Herbert LA Chargers

Gives me a little stack with Ladd which I think I like for a 16 team league.

The movie pick is La La Land. Obvious LA connections but also the music here is my favorite movie compeser Justin Hurwitz.

Ha. I get the similar-sounding preppy-boy names confused sometimes.

At least you did not pick a song by Tyler, the Creator and have to do a take-back.

I wouldn't worry about this. It has always worked itself out in the past.
 
I had 4 guys I was hoping would slide and #2, 3, and 4 all got taken but my first choice is here!

7.06 - Travis Etienne, RB, JAC

My Chemical Romance - Cubicles

The song connection is, I'm in Toronto tonight with Mrs. NV to see My Chemical Romance play at Rogers Centre 🤘

We conferred and decided to wait for @Truebluey

It's one thing for me to make ridiculous picks for my team, but I don't want to do so for others. His list leads to an interesting choice.

We're making good time (and certainly much better than Shining Path).

Thanks so much to you and Doc Oc for working this out and saving my ***. I moved Charbonnet up 30 spots from his adp (due to drafting Walker), so it never occurred to me that he would be gone by my pick (only 5 picks away). So for my second on the turn I listed both PIT RBs so I could grab whoever was still there. But you were spot on. I didn't want BOTH of them.

Thanks again for being smart and considerate.

I shockingly like my team but it could be so many highs and lows.. which is very appropriate for my emo theme (tentative name: Taking Back Sundays)

QB - Christie Front Drive (Nix)

RB - Jawbreaker (CMC)
- Jimmy Eat World (Conner)
- My Chemical Romance (Etienne)

WR - Sunny Day Real Estate (JSN)
- Dashboard Confessional (Tyreek)

TE - The Ataris (Tyler Warren)

I've also started preparing for MCR with some weed, a double IPA and an Imperial Stout so I'd probably be content with Anthony Richardson and Alexander Mattison on my team at this point so
:shrug:

Drafting intoxicated is a fine idea if you're playing in a free league.

Alright, so I did a thorough analysis of the @rockaction roster, bye weeks, various player rankings, and the team needs of those picking between his picks. @Ilov80s then dug deep into the voluminous postings and reactions of Rock over on the Shark Pool, which basically crossed off almost everyone on the short list since he dislikes everyone and everything. Where we landed was the need for a healthy flex for the start of the season.

7.12 - Michael Pittman Jr., WR Colts

Sorry @rockaction - feel better!
