KDS Deadline For March 21st Super League: March 4th

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Wed Mar 03, 2010 4:24 am

Okay, it looks like all 15 owners are now confirmed for the Sunday, March 21st Super League. I will send an email out to all owners to verify payment methods and make sure everyone has their KDS preferences set online. The KDS deadline is now set for: Thursday, March 4th at 11 am ET. I know it's a quick turnaround, but this league has been full for some time now.

Look for an email from me shortly. Thanks all.

With any luck, we'll have the draft spots announced this week. But we need to finalize payment and the rest first. Again, look for my email shortly and then we'll finalize all of this in the next couple of days.

Here is the current signup list. This draft is set for Sunday, March 21st at 1 pm ET. We have a lot of folks drafting online and we will be doing this using our new draft software. We'll give you plenty of time to update your lists for this draft and you'll have free access to mock on this and practice on this within the next 24 hours. Geoff Stein will run this league and will have a number for folks to call into if there are any online issues. This will work smoothly.

Here's the signup list. Good luck all:

We'll have fun with this in a room or in a suite. We'll figure that out soon.

Set your KDS. All have set them except for six owners who are straight butter: 1-15!!

Greg change your header to the 21st. I almost did not read this b/c I did not think it was my league. Thanks for getting this finalized. Those of us will multiple entries will really appreciate this weekend for planning purposes IE draft slots.

The good news for you is that the person to your left in this league will not have 24 empty beer bottles next to him. I know RT can't drink that much!!

Just a heads up: We do have more than one person interested in this league, so if you're on the list and have any problems coming through, let us know ASAP. I have a 16th team all set to go. Thanks all and make sure you set your KDS preferences tonight because tomorrow is THE DAY!!

Have you had a chance to set the draft order?

Yes, the draft order has been selected, filmed and preserved for all to see. Give us a day or so and we'll do the creative editing with the owners' names in the background as we slot them in. Sorry to make you have to wait a little longer for the Super League draft order, but with this much money at stake we HAD to videotape the proceedings or folks wouldn't believe us!!

It turned out pretty cool with yours truly and Ryan Houston doing the dirty work. We'll post it on the home page and link to it here very soon. Sleep well folks, the draft order is now set in stone!!

Now, nobody from the Diamond or Super leagues are allowed to call me in the next day to ask me what their draft spot is!!

I'm not spilling the beans on any of this. It's all a secret until the video comes out and by then I'll be on an airplane headed to Phoenix. I'm watching BASEBALL tomorrow!!

Good luck all and sleep well tonight. The KDS went well.

Will the video camera pick up the "weighted" balls???

Kidding - and yes, I can wait!

Thank you!

Thank you! Mr. Houston was in charge of the bouncing balls and he was flawless in the Super video. But you will see in the Diamond video where one ball got away from him and he had to do a sleight of hand trick under the table.

Look for it.

Greg,

On a more serious note. Will you commit to the video being up by tomm afternoon at the latest or having someone email them to us at that point. My point being this is the only full weekend we have to prepare. I frankly would rather find out by video, but this gives me some good prep time.

Also can you add a KDS selection that says as far away from Jupinka as possible. I played in one slow draft with him and he literally stoled my pick in 5 of 7 opportunities.

- but Jupinka is like that, always stealing picks...

Maybe we can get Mr. Houston to bounce his balls around too!

The video would be cool to watch!

It will be tough Jupinka, you, Gino Yu, and Dobies are guys I would rather not have to play for a lot of money.

I totally understand what you're saying. I just walked over to Patrick's office and he feels confident that both videos will be live tomorrow. He understands the importance of getting you these draft orders by tomorrow EOB and he said he'll meet that deadline. So look for these tomorrow. Good luck all.

Good luck all and sleep well tonight. The KDS went well. Greg, just to clarify is this only for the Super on the 21st(or is it 20th) or does this also mean you have picked draft slots for the Super on the 27th?

Hogs and Chest ---

So long as I don't end up with H. Ram, I should be competitive!

I'm looking forward to this league, lots of great owners here!
