Sure. If anyone wants to draft this Saturday, Jan. 28th starting at 4 p.m. ET in a $150 NFBC Slow Draft that will complete all 50 rounds in one night, place your name here. We don't need any official signup yet, just 15 names right here. Realize that to finish in less than 6 hours we'll need to average around 30 seconds per pick, so this league is not for the faint of heart. Be prepared, be ready and make your picks in a timely fashion. If we don't fill it, no worries. But some people want to compete in a 50-round Draft Champions League and would be interested in finishing in one night. Let's see if there's 15 folks who want to do that. Here's the signup list:

NFBC $150 Slow/Fast Draft
50 Rounds, 15 Teams, 1 Minute Per Pick
Saturday, Jan. 28th, starting at 4 p.m. ET

Let's test it out and see if we can do it.

12 SPOTS LEFT for this one on Saturday. We have to fill it by Saturday morning to get it set up, so if you're interested let us know ASAP. Thanks all.

IN on the concept but can we pick out a date - Saturday or Sunday in February, after the Super Bowl and try and get enough players?

I like the "Fast 50" concept too. Let me know when the date is, and I'll try to make it.

How about a "Fast 50" draft starting at 4PM EST on Saturday, February 11th? I don't mind being the first person to sign up.

With about half a league interested in doing one of these 50 round live draft satellites, I am going to start a new thread with all those "IN"" so far....I will use the one date suggested but then ask anyone who wants to play to post other dates they might be available in mid to late February weekends. Also please post the hours and time zone you can handle (so your range should be more than just the six hours a draft would take so we can try to blend to the needs of everyone. Remember too that some are on the Left Coast and will have different aversions to certain times.

PLEASE sign in on the new thread! TIA
