Once I get that, we should be pretty good to go. But I can't pick 'em until all $5,000 credit card charges have gone through, and we're waiting on a few yet. Hang tight and maybe we can get that done before the weekend. I know we'd like to confirm that.

Greg, Give the dead people the boot replace them with the people who can pay and lets roll.

Agreed Greg. You've got 5 people on standby, move on if someone isn't ready to lock in.

Greg as I thought about it more you are a caring man if someones card declines or is unable to pay the 5k on time do them a FAVOR and do not let them play.

Thanks Greg for trying to get this done as soon as possible. Obviously everyone is anxious. Finding out your draft pick is like opening up Christmas presents when you were a kid. I understand the hold-ups.

No quoting Rule 16 here. Just get that $$ for the last spot.

We still need to finalize a few payments, but my goal is to have this league picked on Friday. If anyone can reach Dyv, speak now or forever hold your peace. Chris is ready to step in.

Greg, if the hold up is on the Vegas Ultimate league and since we were all told that the deadline for our KDS slots was yesterday, can you select the draft spots for the NY/CHIC/TB Ultimate league now. Thanks.

Thanks. We're still finalizing some payments for the participants in that league. Right now, we can't promise anything before Friday although it could get pushed to Monday. Our apologies but we need to dot all the Is and cross all the Ts and all that good stuff.

Thanks. Three credit cards outstanding. Sorry, but it's easier to get the signups than the payments and we'd be remiss if we picked these draft slots before the credit cards were approved.

Trust me, I understand the excitement, but making these signups official is what we have to do and sometimes the $5K hit takes a little bit of time. We'll get this done soon.

fair enough guys...

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Wed Mar 08, 2006 4:08 pm

Okay, I think we're set in Las Vegas now for the Ultimate Draft Leagues. The team of Meat Loaf and Dave Cushard had to back out due to a scheduling conflict and that team has been replaced by Chris Fargis. Chris has his KDS set already for this.

I need to check on the payments for everyone and we'll need to run Chris through tomorrow too, but the plan is to announce the Ultimate Draft League orders as soon as that's done. That could be tomorrow, but maybe we'll shoot for Friday morning right now to make sure these have all gone through. That will give you 9+ days to know your draft spots.

Fair enough? Welcome aboard Chris and thanks for pitching in.

It looks like we are close to finalizing all 45 payments for the two Ultimate Draft Leagues and the one Ultimate Auction League. We should have this finalized this afternoon and at this point should announce all of these leagues no later than tomorrow morning.

Announcing draft picks!!! Ahhhhh, now we're talking baseball!
