You should keep your cards close to chest Double J.

Anyway, I'm going for Emmit Smith.

Why, so that you can trade him for Jerry Rice later?

Pssht, everyone knew I was a McGahee mark since last season.

Besides, I'd probably trade for Losman just to have another Bill on my roster (btw - Geoff you can keep Bledsoe :p ).

I can't help but feel a bit nervous that DB hasn't been around a while - and the draft is today!

Yeah that's my fault. I told him the draft has been postponed until next week. Sucker.

But enough about me....what would you guys do if DB wasn't around? Just as long as you all don't fight over the same Johnson.

Bad news for me. I've just come online to pre rank my players because I may not be able to make tonight (which I've been looking forward to for a long time especially since my other Yahoo fantasy game was a boring automated draft). I hope I can make it but if not I'll be whining like Double J was last year because I'll end up with a shite team. :p

OK guys... sorry to be MIA, but now I'm back. As a reminder:

The live draft will be today, Wednesday, August 31, 2005 at 7 PM Eastern time.

I might not be able to make the draft tonight! I have rush social at a fraternity that I might be pledging. I don't know what time it starts yet.

Would I be allowed to have a friend draft for me?

You can pre-rank your picks just in case...

My question is, if I were to pre-rank my picks, can I still override those live? I don't want a thunderstorm to come in and cause me to shut down in the middle of it; but can I pre-rank and still override during the draft?

FC - Like JG said, you could always prerank your players. With that said, I don't have any problem with a friend drafting for you. Two things...

1 - He better not be obnoxious.
2 - No complaining later on in the year when you are in 10th place because of a bad draft. :p

Just kidding with ya, FC. Good luck tonight.

JG - You can always override a pre-rank list during a live draft. It's up to you who you choose, list or not. However, if your computer locks you out somehow, yahoo will choose from your list.

Try to make it Turi. If not, I'll log on as you and choose an all-Steelers team. :p

Is it better to pre-rank or not. I've made a pre-rank roster, but now I'm thinking maybe I should just kill that.

I need help, can someone tell me what yahoo ID I used to sign up?

:p

Great now everyone knows my yahoo ID, you could have stuck to the message board user agreement and private messaged me with it.

Now I must go change my identity.

HOLA Mis amigos, I am Pablo Guzman lol

Sorry, wasn't thinking...

But I doubt everyone saw it. :rolleyes:

Hold on did you take me seriously?

It was just said to be funny since I got a lashing when I posted DB's name lol

I would have thought you enjoyed that... :p

Dunno. It killed me last year when the draft got moved back, and I didn't come in until 15 minutes later. I put players higher on the chart so I wouldn't forget them if they were available late, though some (McGahee, Lee Evans) turned out to be good, I could've had much better picks.

Basically, if you show up, you'll be fine, Bethie.

Bada bada bada bada bada.........Bing

Phew it was a close one but I'm here. Suckers. Thought you'd be doing this without me. It's nearly 11.30pm and I'm sober.

get on yahoo :p

I'm on the yahoo web page, are you talking about some chat or something? Just seen the draft order, I like it. Anyway I remember last year we had a seperate pop up window for the draft. How do I get that up?

go ot the main page and there is a link to "enter live draft"

15 MINS EVERYONE! GET YOUR ASSES IN THE DRAFT ROOM BY CLICKING ON 'ENTER LIVE DRAFT' (you may have to refresh the page on yahoo)

I have to apologize. I ran the test a long time ago and everything worked just fine. I've done at least 50 online drafts on yahoo throughout the year, but that was in my old apartment. I didn't even think to test it out in my new one and the firewall is blocking the online draft tool. I guess I'll just to have to sink and swim with the players yahoo picks for me. I really don't give a shit either way since there isn't money involved so winning is irrelevent, but I just wanted to let you guys know why I wasn't there.

Good draft and Good night people. I'm going to need a lot of coffee in four hours time.

I could have given birth in less time :rolleyes:

What in the world were some of you doing????
