I've been on this board for a couple years but never read this thread before. It is absolutely amazing and wonderful. Good work.

You guys are awesome. She loves doing this and she is getting to an age where she is starting to comprehend all that was going on. She is looking forward to pulling the names out of the hat in a day or so. In the mean time this is her with her new friend.

Fantastic. You brought her to New York for the NFFC a few years ago, Roger. Time to get her to a live event in the NFBC. :)

Years have passed since I first participated in this draft. Wow, she is growing up to be a beautiful young woman. Can’t wait to see this year’s video...always looking forward to it. What an amazing story about courage and humanity...

Ok guys here is the draft order. It is hard to believe that this is year 7. I was looking back at the older videos and figured I would post year 1 if anybody was interested in watching it. Year 7 https://youtu.be/V43OVjt6xpY

Awesome stuff, Mia!
I guess these Boards do not support video's, so I copy and pasted to a new window, for those trying to see the draft order.
It is amazing to see how our little girl has grown!
Again, thanks Rog, and way to go, Mia!
:D
On my tombstone-
Wait! I never had the perfect draft!

This league is set up on Registration and ready for the 15 owners listed here to jump in. We will change the draft order to what Mia has selected AFTER KDS runs and the auto-create draft order is chosen. Have no fear, we'll manually change it to the correct order shortly after that. That's easy to do.

Look for an email from Dan and then sign up quickly. If you need any help, shoot me or Tom an email and we'll get it done. Thanks Mia and good luck everyone.

Just the best, Mia. Loved the "hat trick". You nailed it, girl! 8-) Although you have to work on getting Uncle Mike a number one pick for next year. ;) And Rog, couldn't help but notice that you have made the official transition from "Daddy" to "Roger Martin". Oh the teenage years. :roll: Can't wait to get this one rolling tomorrow. Always the highlight of the season. :D

The rule is you can butcher the name any way you like for the 1st pick. Great stuff as usual and speaking of butchering don't let Lindy anywhere near that hog!!
