You guys may want to think about stopping this draft until the issues are cleared up with Fanball. I sent in $125 for my slow draft just a few days before the recent news and I sure won't be sending in any more until things are cleared up! The tentative plan for this league is to run it privately, unless or until the fanball issue is resolved to accomodate us as a host site. Full speed ahead.

kj,

when do the contracts freeze? Sunday night or Monday morning, only getting a few signings each day so it won't take much effort to update.

FYI - CarGo official signing announcement tomorrow. With reported signing bonus he could cost around the $145 level. Should know details tomorrow.

Details out on CarGo's contract. He remains a bargain for another year at $4 million between salary and signing bonus.

Probably still out of Doughboys range at $40 .

What kind of pace will we be on in this draft. Is this going to be a "fast" slow with all participants and lots of communication to keep it moving? Just curious!!

You'd have the coveted #3 draft slot, we'll get underway on Monday. PM me with any questions/ for details. since we'll have a new owner, can we reroll KDS?

When you take too long, money goes into the pot- its like a swear jar.

I'll take the spot if it's still available. Although I'd have to mail you a check since I recently switched bank accounts and my new one isn't set up on Paypal yet (unless you're willing to wait for it to be setup - about 5-6 days).

I think we should re-do KDS. Signing up or the #3 spot could be a significant advantage.

I know I was jealous for it.

76erfan · Post by **76erfan** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 3:58 am

it was my spot.....i told kj i would keep the spot if he couldnt get a replacement but to look for one because i had a personal reason to try and be removed. i would be open to co-owning a team with the guy interested or anyone else to keep my cost down.

JB and I are co-owning.....I am not leaving. So we keep #3:)

KJ Duke · Post by **KJ Duke** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 5:27 am

This draft is setup on MDC. We'll transfer results to Greg or wherever we host this at a later date.

In the meantime, it will be like the early days of the NFBC. I even added Greg as a league spectator just in case he wants to login and chat with us !
