Greg:



Could you please put me down for the Super League on Sunday, March 27, 2011, at 10:00 a.m. (PST)? I intend to draft live at the Bellagio.



Thanks.

With respect to the KDS preference "balls," I was having the same problem regarding the $375 slow draft and I mentioned that problem to Tom yesterday (by e-mail). I also provided Tom with my KDS preferences in that e-mail to make sure they had it before the Monday deadline. That approach will work (...

Greg/Tom:



If still open, put me down for last spot on $375 slow draft. I signed up online.



Thanks.



Kevin Park

Greg:



If the current $150 draft fills today, how about setting a KDS deadline for tomorrow afternoon? Maybe we could get the draft started over the weekend.



I know I said my New Year's resolution was patience. But it is still 2010 . . .

Greg/Tom: I signed up for the $150 draft and then realized I was already signed up for that draft (the $375 draft I previously signed up for and missed was converted to a $150 draft). So I now have two $150 draft teams. I only need one. Could you delete the most recent team? Thanks. Kevin Park

Greg/Tom:



Just slide me into the $150 slow draft which is currently being filled.



Thanks.



Kevin Park

Greg:



I'm up for the $375 draft if still available. My New Year's resolution is patience.



Thanks.



Happy New Year.

Greg: Thanks for posting these three slow drafts. Gonzo's draft positions were 14, 11 and 18, respectively. Assuming his stock has been going up, I further assumed the probable order of the drafts posted were second, third and first (I may be completely wrong, but humor me). Considering the first dr...

I thought this was baseball not football. Reminded me a little of Willis McGahee's knee injury. Probably tore ACL and MCL - gone for a year. Real shame for a nice rookie catcher.

Concur McSwagger...and he jacked up Cano's knee no less.



Other than Lincecum, Halladay and Ubaldo, consistency from the top line pitchers this year as been suspect at best. Love carrying 4.5+ ERAs and 1.4+ WHIPs on my teams....

Greg:



It appears the Double Play Live Draft at the Bellagio which took place on Saturday, March 27, at 4:00 p.m. (PST) also has not been loaded yet.



Could you check on that please?



Thanks.

Luck and Skill: In preparing for the 12 team leagues, I looked at what it would take to be in the top 20% of every category from last year's Online stats. Here is what I came up with: BA: .282 HRS: 300 RBIS: 1125 RUNS: 1150 STEALS:175 WINS: 100 KS: 1200 ERA: 3.80 WHIP: 1.26 SAVES: 95 With a little "...

Thanks Sportsbettingman for letting me post my explanation before being clearly identified. Given my earlier posts, my identity likely was transparent to anyone who cared.



I am obviously too impatient for slow drafts. As you aptly stated, live and learn.

I was the person who called Bobby's house. I left a telephone message, was very polite, and simply said the clock had started and he had twelve hours to make the pick. I have already sent Bobby an apology and told him it will not happen again. In light of the reaction from the board, I acknowledge t...

Thanks Shawn. Ron showed up and gave us contact info.

Ron: I would have sent you an e-mail, but couldn't find your Displayed Name on the message board. Thanks.

Hey Mr. Blackwell (I mean Norman): Unless you finished in the top 10 overall last year, he did better than you. And I'm sure you couldn't carry his jock when it comes to sportsmanship. Hope you finish out of the money in whatever league you are in this year. If you and Rich are friends and you are j...

Slow Draft #8 has started. Participants in that Draft should log into Mock Draft Central and start drafting.



Thanks.

Greg: I registered for the $125 Slow Draft #8. Could you please sign me up as needed? I will e-mail my KDS preferences to Tom, as you requested. I'm planning on signing up for the Double Play Package (2 live, 1 online) at the Bellagio. Anyway to trade the Lester ball for a Kemp ball? A Dodger ball i...

Hey Yaz, I signed up for position #2. At this point, drafting out of any position helps get a better sense of how the draft may break. We can always do additional mock drafts once we all know our exact drafting position. See you tonight.

Thanks Yaz for setting this up. It's good to get some practice in before the real deal. Hopefully we will fill up the mock draft tonight.



Good luck.
