Greg,

Any opposition to doing this draft sooner rather than later.

It will provide some bulletin board material, raise some good discussion points for the board, and give us some time to critique each other internally which I would find useful.

I have spoken to a couple of people about this and they seem to agree but obviously it is a nice gesture on your part to provide it and I appreciate the gesture whenever we do it.

Greg - I am with Chest on this one. The schedule becomes ridiculous on March 1, so let's try and get this done sometime this month - perhaps send an email out to everyone and have them list their "can't do dates", sort and pick a day thats good for all of us (if such a thing exists)

Wait -- won't having this draft early screw up the Gekko Jeopardy contest?

I am game pretty much anytime you guys say. the only restriction is the illusion of work weekdays 7-6, M-F.

How do you guys feel about a Saturday morning?

Any day in March would be good, provided it is after 4 (7 EST) or on the weekend. But I agree with the group that I'd prefer to do it before the main event.

I am ready asap- mon and Wed nights do not work well for me-

bjoak - Spring training games start on March 1 and in the entire month, I don't have one free day,so I really need to do this sometime in February (unless you all want to wait and do it in April which I doubt)

If we do it this month, I am willing to compromise and admit that I have free time in two hour blocks and that I am not entirely booked up for every hour of the 24 hours in each day for 30 days in a row just because I don't feel like doing it when you want to. How about the last week in February?

Last week of February is fine

I will also add that I think we (including Greg and the mdc guy) should all be able to agree on a time and if that can't happen, we should do it at the originally scheduled time. If you can't make that, you pre-draft.

I have been giving it to Perry pretty good this weekend but one more time.

Anyone else curious as to how a retired guy is so busy he cannot find 3 hours over a 30 day period? Well I was and Perry was gracious enough to forward over his outlook calendar and I am going to share a few tidbits from a sample day.

6am to 7 am breakfast

7am-8am yell at the kids in the neighborhood for walking through my yard on the way to the bus.

8am-9am- polish my autographed picture of Eddie Gillis

9am-11 am- nap

11 am to noon- eat prunes for an hour they will come in handy

Noon- 3pm- head over to the ballpark for a little fun

3pm-4pm watch my favorite part of Driving Miss Daisy and well tend to the little hook- Jessica Tandy is a fox

4pm to 5pm- dinner at Piccadilly

5pm-6pm- catch the last half of a Golden Girls Marathon

6-7 pm yell at neighbors for making such a racket at this hour

7-8 prepare for NFBC draft and say 100 times in the mirror this will be the year I shut that pr*ck Rockwell up

8-9 pm- gather around some friends from the community and watch 95 your old Sal originally from Brooklyn and a big Dodger fan laugh his tail off at laugh at some of Big Dog's predictions

9pm bed time

Bottom line is retired people are busy BJOAK back off-

Don't hate me Perry!

Captain Hook · Post by **Captain Hook** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 9:07 am

Chest - you must have gotten that from your friends in FLA there

bjoak - I will make March 27 or 28 available and have let Greg know that (he was suggesting the 26th, but I think several people are in the large satellite that evening)

bjoak · Post by **bjoak** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 9:27 am

Chest, you are on a roll this week. Who says impending parenthood ruins a sense of humor?

Now everyone go hope for two point conversions, safeties, and missed extra points so Bri has a chance to win some of these football pools.

6am to 7 am breakfast - 2 bowls of Captain Crunch. Not the Crunch Berries mind you - that's considered fruiting the crunch. Captain Law #45.

what a hoot Chest ! mind my addendum.

Just want to thank everyone who kept me in their thoughts and got the Colts to miss the extra point. Won $2000.

Vander · Post by **Vander** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 4:40 pm

I'm ready whenever everybody else is. I do think before the main event would be helpful. BTW in case your not aware there's a team drafting on mdc that is using "bring me the head of Bjoak" as their team name. I don't want to falsly accuse anyone, but my guess is it's Chest. Sorry if I guessed wrong. Funniest team name I've seen yet.

If it were a murder CSI Los Angeles would be at the home of John Zaleski...

bjoak · Post by **bjoak** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 5:56 pm

I love that. I'm actually the type of person who would name my own team that, but it's not me. Yah, I would go Zaleski first, but if it just started in the last 24 hours I'd go Hooker. Then again, Edwards Kings, Spyhunter, it could be anyone. It can't be Big Doggy unless 'Bring me the head of Chest Rockwell' has too many characters. Infamy is fun.

bjoak · Post by **bjoak** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 6:18 pm

I looked at the team and it's pretty good actually, so that rules out Zaleski. Whoever it is, fess up. I will be in Vegas if you want to step outside, or, better yet, make up and have a drink.

I don't consider you competition enough to worry about referencing you in one of my team names!

Actually, I have only used two team names in the last decade...EK and Phat Bustards...
