Well said Coz,

With that, the Northsiders Slappy dynamic duo would like to give up their spot to Jay so that he can prove he is no bench warmer. We will then become consultants on hand to provide him a drink if he so wishes for one.
Aw hell, who are we kidding, by Midnight Jay will be in no condition to draft & after following him around all night like a chihuahua, will likely be passed out & curled up on MtM's lap. :lol: Rob, best that you & the Boy Wonder stay live.

NOTE: KDS is going to run automatically for this on March 17th. Please ignore and don't worry about setting yours, as this is done prior to the draft, so we'll simply adjust the draft order at that time.

Yes, we are now officially SOLD OUT for this special 12-team satellite league with a $7000 first prize payout up for grabs that was open exclusively to the revelers taking part in the MTM NFBC party out in Vegas. 8-) All who are joining us that evening are free to hang out for the draft. :D

Just a reminder that I highly recommend heavy drinking by all participants prior to the start of this draft. Some of you don't need the prodding, but just in case, I wanted to throw this out there for everyone else who may be on the fence about it. That is all. :mrgreen:

Here is the revised line up for the Midnight Madness Draft after Matt Modica decided he couldn't hack it and stay up late with the big boys: :P :mrgreen:

1. MTM
2. Marc Winokur (2018 Champ)
3. Bryan Vogel
4. Rob Giese/Matt Anderson
5. Chad Fleming
6. CJ Kaltenbach
7. Matt Shepherd
8. Dan Semsel
9. Ken Magner/Joe Anthony
10. Scott Feschuk
11. KJ Duke
12. Dorian Kinman

7000 big ones on the line boys! We should get this bad boy up and running around 11:30 p.m. like we did last year once everyone is sufficiently inebriated and assembled.

:arrow: Please note as per Darik that there will be no projector screen for this one. It will be up on the big screen TV, but I suggest everyone may want to bring along their personal tablet or laptop which can easily be secured away in the suite both before and after the event.

Next year, you need to get Jay Lyons to do running commentary on the draft. :lol:
