$11 !!!!
Already?
That's a Maya, short a bag of Doritos!
Roger, we have to talk!!!!
I agree that $11 is way too much to spend on a top-3 pick.

Ummm, isn't there a rule about changing your mind when I'm hoping someone might fall to me.
It may not be written, but I believe it was implied.

Sunday at noon sounds good to me - we could go slow ... maybe two rounds or less, but it would be nice to start on the weekend and chat about football. Checking with Bama to see if he's ok with that, sounds like the others could be ready for at least a pick or two.

Speaking for Mr. Shovein and myself, we will be ready to go come the weekend.

This is going to be epic. Some of the biggest names in fantasy, penny pinching their way to a 6th place finish and a 1 in 12 chance at manager of the year. Will the real men please step forward?

Lowy goes two rounds max before he starts buying triple-digit players.

Ha!
That's not KJ in the background. That is 'Raj', Rog's brother coming to his rescue. I'm in trouble.

I've reviewed last year's draft, and firmly believe we will see a Billy Hamilton sighting in Round 1 this year.

Already been talked about in our war room. Complete agreement.
Our bets were on who got him first.

Nope, it'll be at least the late 20 rounds before I start buying even double-digit players.
Pssst....Hamilton may not make it past 1.4.

hamilton might make even more sense for a "big money" owner to select than a punting owner!

Draft Order
1. Weber -400
2. Martin-Dough -200

Not sure he'll make it to 4, Dough could opt for Billy + 2x Doritos over original pick.

I think Rog already hinted that he was forfeiting those bags of Doritos. Poor Doughy, he loses maybe 100 steals AND some Cool Ranch.

Somewhere Joe is saying to himself how can anybody pass on Miggy for a mere $220 that is quite a steal with the 3rd pick overall. There is no way team 3 lets him pass (what do you say there CHAMP?

THink Lowry would be heart broke if I did that. Really was looking at a $11 1b so I would think that is way over doughy budget but fits well with mine. Think Hamilton should be the pick for team 2.

I agree Hamilton is likely #2. Still, $11 for you Champ? C'mon, break out some of that $100K you have hidden in your mattress and treat yourself to a Miggy.

Only in this crazy league could some dude who can't hit be a possibility for 2nd pick. 'Cool Ranch' is one Borbon start from moving to the 8 hole...

There is no way he goes number 2 overall. The only way we dont take a $11 1st baseman is if team one lets that $5 fish drop to us.
