Quick update that Jay Lyons has graciously agreed to be a first alternate for the Midnight Madness Draft just in case to bail us all out in a pinch like if someone were to puss out at the last minute or something similarly idiotic were to happen. Some one would say that it would be equally idiotic to add Jay to this draft, but that wouldn't be me.
As Jay Lyon's counsel & agent, I can unequivocally state it would in no way be "idiotic" to add Mr. Lyons to this draft. Furthermore, I would state that Mr. Lyons is not some bench warmer who you can call up "just in case, to bail y'all out in a pinch." Jay, I mean Mr. Lyons, is not some mere "First Alternate," for your silly Midnight Madness to call up to your suite like some hooker on call. He has many other social events & activities already lined up for that evening so ya either lock him up now or he will engage in other, more prestigious social engagements for that evening. Should you acquiesce to his demand to be addd to the Midnight Madness Draft (really original name, btw), Jay will also require, at the start of the draft, an entire case of COLD (not lukewarm) King of Beers BUD LIGHT for himself & himself only to get through the draft, a side of cold Fiji bottled water (large size), a shrimp cocktail, and a bowl of peanut M& M's (no specific colors are required; he is not Beyonce-level-high-maintence, but he is close). And, this is a must, please keep John Pausma & Doug Gruber out of the room & away from Jay during the draft...I mean during his selections. Jay does not merely "draft," he selects & has no time to be bothered by their respective obsequiousness. Oh, and please keep the idle chit-chat to a minimum while Mr. Lyons is on the clock. And a roast beef sandwich on a crispy baugette roll (no cheese) with a side of horseradish at the half-way point of the draft would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for your accommodations, MtM, your efforts are, as always, much appreciated. Mr. Lyons looks forward to the selection of eligible players to his team at the Midnight hour.
