typo in magazine

Post by Cooperstown » Sat Feb 18, 2006 9:11 am

On pages 126 & 127 of the Fantasy Sports magazine, I noticed an error, and it effects our Laeague Champions draft.



In round 19 it shows Dan Kenyon taking Alexis Rios. Also, in round 21 it shows John Hogan taking Alexis Rios.



I checked back to the spreadsheet I exported the final draft results to, and I show Dan taking the infamous Armando Rios in round 19. Something tells me Dan wanted Alexis, but you never know.



I guess we'll have to do the entire draft over. :eek:

Yeah, this wasn't so much a typo as it was a mistake on Draft Day. He did take Armando Rios in the 19th round, although I think we all know he wanted Alexis Rios and nobody caught it. We didn't realize it too until well after the magazine was gone. This is another reason why I'm not jumping through hoops to take $250 per team in that league as we had a few technical glitches that night that we haven't had since in the other mock drafts.



I'm sure there are plenty of typos in the magazine, but this wasn't your typical "typo."

Armando Rios is going to be a stud!!! Make sure you snap him up early or he will be gone!!.... Good pick up, Coops. I had meant to take Alexis Rios but se la vi, my bad. We had a lot of stoppages that night and I didn't want to add one more.

Wait! I never had the perfect draft!

Way to take one for the league.
