Well at least I don't have to sit next to Fandango this year! LOL Grant it it took me to go 1300 miles away to get away from him!

Maybe I'll use my Johan Santana, Carpenter, B.J. Ryan strategy in Orlando. It worked so well for me in New York last year!

Lots of interesting strategies at this auction. Some teams punted categories. Others utilized belching as a method to confuse their opponents. A wild draft for sure!

absolutely. It was great to meet everyone, but Scott, man, the belching is just too much in an auction format. You are cut off!!!

Good luck all, I hate my team btw. Dan and others hogged all the pictching

Spy aka Chris (Team #1)

I had a good time. Hats off to our auctioneer!

It will definitely be a pretty interesting league.

Spy - sorry to hear you didn't like your team. I left, wishing I had one more stable arm, but thinking my team can be competitive. We'll see how it turns out!

Hank - great to see you again!

Good luck!

Hey Michael, good to see you again also. I enjoyed this draft a lot, despite making a few

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 12:44 am**

mistakes! This year I won't be in Africa this summer (no dengue fever) so hopefully will do a better job of team mgmt.

Scott, the league wishes to express our deepest sympathies on John Lackey's recent misfortunes. We are very sad....

Hey Blokes: Friendliest auction I have partcipated in......in New York. Hope the stuff I put in the beer did what it was supposed to.

Great auctioneer and his dwarves. Sorry, cannot name my team the Yankee Nationals. When is the CD coming out with a best of Scott from Friday and Saturday? Apologies in advance for winning all of your money, but I need it to support my bad habits. Good Luck in the fight for second and third.

CHEERS,

Roundmann

Dang! Should have went to New York. Rumor has it you needed someone to keep Fandango in check!

Nothing a Nutty Scrat couldn't do! I think? LOL

Did have a good time in Orlando however. Was nice to see some new faces to go along with the screen names.

Hope the draft went well.

Hey Nutty, we missed you as well. I haven't seen any posts by Scotty, I am starting to get a bit worried.

I was looking at the teams and it made me feel just a bit better that almost everyone else is in the same crap hole of pitching!

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 12:43 pm**

How could anyone possibly get a decent pitcher with Dan bidding? He got all the good ones!

But after last year's snow my wife and 6 year old son wanted Florida! LOL And who could blamed them. I thought it was a fair trade off!

We might just have to post a picture of Scott on the side of a milk carton! LOL
