We'll add one more date to those who still want to compete in an online version of the $500 Double Play since the Wednesday, March 24th date filled up in one day. We have the Sunday, March 28th 9 pm ET slot that has a couple of owners, but I heard from others last night that they wanted one more before the live drafts. Let's try for Thursday, March 25th at 7 ET.



Again, this allows those owners who can't make the live events a shot at the double grand prize of $25,000 for those in this $500 event and the $60,000 in the online version. League prizes are also $2,000 for first place and $750 for second place. Here's our current signup list:

We have six spots left now for the Sunday, March 28th $500 Double Play which is drafting online. We have four owners in the Monday night one as well and if that one doesn't fill we'll try to see if they can draft on either Thursday night or Sunday night of next week. That would help us fill those two for sure. Here's the current signup list for later next week:
