[Duckboy]

With the first pick of WSL 1, I will select LT. Surprise, surprise. I don't expect the same numbers as this year by any means, but he the best chance at staying in the RB1 slot.

Last year, it was an 8 hour clock, off nights/weekends. I think once we get rolling, this should go pretty fast.

How did the guy in charge of the dice roll end up with the number 1 pick?

:weird:

Not any more strange than me landing the number 2 pick in 3 of our SSLs in 1 year.

Yeah I just looooved that when it came up, since I knew it might be questioned. Happy to forward the dice roll email to you if you want. And ravnzfan has a copy as well - just in case something like this happened.Personally, I'd rather not have the first pick - way too long to the second pick in a 16-teamer.

Hey, someone had to give the smartalec remark. As for as not wanting the number one pick. YOU ARE ####### INSANE. It is a HUGE advantage. Lets trade. You can be right in the middle.

Yep. The #1 pick won me PDSL. But I'm happy with the #3.I checked apparently 15 minutes before we started. Sorry guys.

1.03 Larry Johnson - I know his touches were ridiculous, but I was expecting him to go #2, and am happy to have him.

What is this anyway, the FFA? Now that it's gone, I see the top three as being pretty close this year, so 3rd was my preffered slot. Certainly would rather be 1st than mid-round though.

 

[Fiddles]

Bicycle Seat Sniffer takes



1.04 Brian Westbrook RB Phi

 

[jeter23]

1.05 AhrnCityPounder - Frank Gore

[Fiddles]

the bottom of the first round is not looking too bad now

Not since he said In in the signup thread. I dropped him an email as well.

 

[bicycle_seat_sniffer]

thanks fidds.

Much like last year there is a very clear tier at 1-3 then the 4th pick is were it gets dicy, if this wasn't ppr, I wouldn't have takey old westy, but the guy is just pure money in ppr.

My other thought was Gore. Whom I see ACP picked up.

Strange that Salex didn't even enter my thoughts. He'll probably be gold for ya Pimpin

 

[AhrnCityPahnder]

My other thought was Gore. Whom I see ACP picked up.

I had Gore a little higher than Westb. not much though.

 

[LHUCKS]

I still have Alexander third.

 

[Duckboy]

Just so everybody is on the same page...when does IWBC time out and what will happen when he does time out?

My understanding is that he gets bumped down to 16th (everyone else left moves up a slot) and if he times out again without a pick, we look for a replacement.ETA: with an 8 hr clock and off at night, he would time out at 9 AM Eastern (pretty sure the clock runs from 9 to 9). I'll try to check in before I head to work and update the thread if he doesn't show.

New Year's Day4:39PM

IIRC, clock off 12 Midnight-8AM eastern

You are correct in retrospect (looked it up from last year). So he would have until 8 eastern. Not sure I can promise to be up at 5 AM my time though, so if HTF wants to be ready then, he can start it up again and I'll update when I wake up. I'll pm HTF to be ready.

 

[ravnzfan]

my schedule has me up early (2AM eastern), then home from work ~6-6:30am...anyone OTC overnight, shoot me a PM

while I'm I'll update the thread w/the overnight selections...should help us keep this thing moving along

 

[Iwannabeacowboybaby!]

1.10 Willie Parker, RB Steelers

1.10 Willie Parker, RB Steelers

Good to have you IWBC.

 

[Hear-the-Footsteps]

1.11: RB- Rudi Johnson

I know he doesn't pull in many receptions, but he consistently gets it done in rushing yards and TDs.

Here's hoping he continues to do both.

Will PM Frank Black

 

[Frank Black]

Hmm, with Johnson gone, I need a few minutes and I'll be right back.

 

[Frank Black]

I'll say a couple of things. It's great to be drafting with you guys again. Second, last year was my worst SSL showing ever. This year, I'm going to mix things up, hopefully without being utterly stupid. That said,

1.12 ANTONIO GATES.
