(1) In his first week of eligibility, Rasner was picked up in every Super, Ultimate and Main Event League today...except for Orlando 3.

(2) Orlando 3 currently ranks last among all 26 Main Event leagues.

When a league drafts Rocco Baldelli in the 23rd round, what do you expect?

I'm surprised Bull Pen PUGS isn't in 1st place in the overall standings.

As an Orlando 3 owner, it is what it is. If the competition is that soft, I will be back in Orlando again while the sharks are in LV, Chicago, and NY

Clearly, as goes Rasner ... so goes the talent pool in Orlando 3?

Are you kidding me?

Perhaps Orlando 3 is last because we are all stripping stats from eachothers squads?

Andy I agree with your sentiment on the stripping of stats, I sense the same thing with Orlando 1. We have a lot of good owners in our league.

Although, you have to admit, you had a few players who didn't have a clue in your league.

And yes, I wish all the bashers would make the trip to the land of easy pickings. I've heard the same thing regarding Tampa for football and now this. If you see the Florida venues as easy money, why wouldn't you join the fray? There's gambling, alcohol, and females working to pay for their college tuition down here as well.

Is it me, or does the quote not quite match the montra of GLY?

Patrick, I hope all is well down there in the land of slim pickings.

THe irony with the Baldelli pick in our league was that it came from a phone in from Las Vegas. Does this suggest that we had the easiest Orlando league because we had phone-ins from the weaker cities?

But there is no Fisher party.

But we have SNAKES down here!!

Seriously, if people want to ridicule the Sunshine states drafters so much, why not join them, instead of bashing?

I've heard from a few different drafters, in both the NFFC and NFBC, that the drafts in Florida were the hardest they've participated in.

With such a small amount of people drafting, it's inevitable that each league will be filled with knowledgeable/proficient drafters. Without being attacked, I don't think the same can be said about the other cities.

If I really wanted to play the angle, I would probably head to the Big Apple. From what I've seen the past few years, they have some of the easier leagues based upon the results of the drafts.

Come draft with us and I'll buy you a water.

Neal, things are great down here, if only we could eliminate the humidity/heat. How's the little one?

What's it down there?

I personally had no imput on the Baldelli draft pick and I imagine no one else in the league either. I guess we all should have said something to that owner not to draft Baldelli? We bad! I guess!
