I will wait, but you guys need to leave me Tulo or Braun at #10 and we will be cool. Thanks :o
Yeah, we're just as excited to get everything started here. Sorry for the delay. I'll explain all when I can, but everything is on pace to get things moving in the next week or so and then we'll be good to go. It's a shame we've had to even deal with this, but it happens. Enjoy the baseball winter meetings for now and get ready for a fun drafting season hopefully starting next week.
Any updates on if we are going to try and get these started this week or are we more likely another week out?I have a 6th and a 12th pick burning a hole in my pocket.

It definitely won't be ready right away. But I'm meeting the head of the IT department in a few hours at Lambeau Field and will ask over Miller Lites!! I'll have an answer tomorrow. :mrgreen: Maybe I can buy us a quicker resolution thanks to barley and hops. :mrgreen:

at this point Greg, it would best to just say you have no idea when we will get these started and leave it at that. it's gone from "the week after thanksgiving", to "you'll know in a couple days", "to hopefully this week". you don't know, and that's cool.

Hmmm, seems like a few more sharks have entered the pool lately. :mrgreen: And I thought last year was elite competition. Defending my title should be fun. Looking forward to it, Max.

I can't believe how fast this league has almost filled up already! I think we still had a spot or two left last year about 2 weeks before we started, but I have a feeling this one will be completely full pretty quick now. Great group of guys and a chance to test your metal against the very best in the game for sure.

Mike, you signing up for the 2nd - $375 Slow so we can have our side bet again this year? Come on, I got lucky to beat a guy of your caliber last year! :shock:

As Brian scolded me above, don't say anything more until you know for sure. I'll know more by Friday, but likely not before. Sorry, but we have to get through a legal dilemma first. We won't be starting these Slow Drafts before next week, unfortunately. Sorry, but I think we'll clear this hurdle on Thursday and have a good plan ready to announce right after that. I think Registration can go live soon and that will allow Slow Drafts to begin. Thanks for your patience all. Baseball drafts are almost here and we have plenty of full leagues to kick off as soon as we go live.
