[Gekko]

Mikey is right Edelman. Don't be scared. Where's your signup? You've always been my kryptonite

[Tom Kessenich]

Great to have Mike Edelman back in the Thursday night New York Main Event. That means we are unofficially sold out. There's still ONE LIVE spot left so if you want it do not delay. We're picking the draft order on Saturday so if someone doesn't step up then Alan Greenberg will join us on the phone.

since I can't make vegas this year to party with KOQ and Gekko or attend the MTM party I figured the next best thing was to bring some kryptonite!

[Gekko]

[Baseball Furies]

Cute Gekko. Only problem is you left yourself out of the picture.

[Red Sox Nation-]

One more to go. Draft Slots unveiled Saturday AM...Let's Go.

[Gekko]

less than a week until....

[Tom Kessenich]

Still one spot available for someone who wants to draft LIVE with this group. Draft spots will be set tomorrow so if you want the spot today is your last chance to claim it.

[Tom Kessenich]

Now this is what I like to see. An open spot and a big-time player stepping up and grabbing it. Look at Ken Magner diving in and maybe bringing Chip with him to take on the fellas in the Big Apple on Thursday night. That means our first Main Event of the season is officially SOLD OUT. Look for draft spots tomorrow everyone.

If I don't get a text from ANDY SAXTON in the next ten minutes - my feelings will be hurt!

Thanks Tom - 3 days in NYC. Should be a test.

[76erfan]

I never figured u for three days in nyc so I didn't bother. I'll text u during every draft every pick though.

Stop following me around!

[Tom Kessenich]

I'm pretty sure Chip needs to meet Daisy.

Just sayin.

[76erfan]

I'm pretty sure Chip needs to meet Daisy.

Just sayin.

That could be a match! Yeah sack....Thursday night at pub....u kinda gotta go now...right?

[Gekko]

Wow!!! Welcome Ken. What a great and tough group!!

[Sack]

Andy:

No work on Friday as it is Auction Day in the city, so the Irish Pub is sounding like
a good shot. Despite the Daisy meet - Chip tells me that Saturday is the only NFBC he can
swing with his school/work schedule. However, one of my friends from work may join me
and I know he would be up for the Irish Pub!

Thanks for the welcome Mark. I read your post and looked up Massotto's rank for last
years ME ............ it was the deciding factor!

Nice job Kenny. I knew we could call in the Closer from the pen for this one. Enjoy boys.

[Baseball Furies]

Awesome having you on board for this one, Sack! Thanks for jumping in and for your donation. This one is going to be a blast...though I do feel bad for Gekko and what he's going to be subjected to during the draft. I'll be posting my breakout picks for this year later as well. I'm sure everyone is going to love them as much as Gekko's.

Tough league, but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, or in most people's case in this one, DEAD!

P.S. I will also be posting all of Gekko's picks after the draft so everyone can study them in advance of all of the drafts that they're in with him. You can thank me later.

[Gekko]

Mikey - No need to feel bad for me. I know what I'm doing. I do hope we are sitting next to each other so I can see up close what draft day failure looks like. It will be fun watching you THINK you have the "dream team", but me knowing it's a bottom 10% team

Nobody really benefited from KDS in this league, but nobody got squashed either. The average KDS received was 5.5, which means for the most part people got their 5th or 6th preferred draft spot. Again, nothing special, but nothing wicked.

Here's a look at this Thursday New York league and the KDS preferences that were posted:

1 2 3 4 5 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 6 7 8
1 2 3 8 9 10 7 11 6 12 5 4 13 14 15
13 14 15 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 1 2 5 4 3
1 2 3 8 9 10 11 7 6 5 4 12 13 14 15
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
1 2 3 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 5 4
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 15 11 12 13 14
1 2 3 7 8 9 10 11 12 6 5 4 13 14 15
9 10 11 12 13 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 14 15
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 15 13 14
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
1 2 10 9 8 11 7 12 3 4 13 5 6 14 15
1 2 3 4 15 14 13 12 7 8 9 10 11 6 5
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

Here's the fast facts:
** Average KDS preference received was 5.5
** Only 2 owners got their first preference. Still, 9 of 15 owners got a preference in their Top 5.
** The worst preferences received were: 11th, 9th, 8th. Not terrible.

Good luck all and have fun in the Big Apple.
