What are the odds that the No. 1 picks will be there at high noon? Let's hope they all kick these Slow Drafts off in good fashion. Good luck everyone and enjoy.
Well, I'm one of them, and I'll be making my pick immediately. So good odds!

Thanks for the heads up. We're going to leave it at 10 hours through the holiday weekend to give folks more time and then move it to 8 hours on Tuesday. It will be 8 hours for everyone after that.

I hope you liked your first pick of 2012!! :mrgreen:

When do we get to find out the draft positions for 375-2???? Waiting for my pick in league 1 and starting to wonder about this one!
Thanks Greg! :D

They will be posted in a few minutes. All 15 KDS preferences have arrived and are ready to roll. Thanks all. This one will start Tuesday, Dec. 27th at 11 am ET. Look for that league link this afternoon and be ready to draft on Tuesday.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, it's great to see the kids back in the sandbox playing so nicely. As a parent, I can just leave them with their pails and shovels now and not worry about them until lunchtime!! :mrgreen: What a great feeling.

60 NFBC owners are currently in the Slow Draft draft rooms opening their Christmas presents. I haven't heard nary a peep from them since we started this morning. It's good to see them playing and having fun. All four leagues are off and rolling. So what are we learning?

Well, few things have changed as Albert Pujols is back on top after signing with the Angels. He went No. 1 in 3 of 4 drafts, with Matt Kemp going No. 1 in the other draft. Kemp went 2,2,3, while Jose Bautista went 2nd in one of these drafts. Miguel Cabrera follows at 3,3,4 and he hasn't been picked yet in the other league. Jacoby Ellsbury has gone 5,8,6.

Just a few tidbits to give you owners not in the sandbox something to chew on. Enjoy and don't be jealous. Your Draft Day will arrive soon enough. ;)

How do we access the Draft Board in the Slow Drafts?

Great job everyone getting through the holidays. I wasn't called on at all during the gift opening day!! :mrgreen: We have two leagues into the 11th round already and two leagues in the 7th round. That's pretty good since Thursday and through the holidays. Good luck the rest of the way all and we'll be starting more leagues tomorrow. The Drafting season is here and will be with us now through April 4th!!! GOOD FUN!!

Yeah, I can do that. Give me until this afternoon to tease everyone with six rounds of results. I'm busy handing out over $1.4 million to our football winners right now!! :D Tom and I have to get those names and accomplishments to accounting as fast as we can so that we can pay these boys and girls. ;) But I'll be back here shortly.
