Talking and doing something are too different things. There's a fine line between excitement and impatience... I think it's pretty harmless that people are excited to be moving.

The point is this is our first offseason, and I don't really understand the huge rush to get through it. I agree there is a fine like between excitement and patience but people telling Skerik to pick for me before the time limit in the utility is up is pretty impatient. I'm sorry, but I'm not going to stay home all weekend just to run the draft and if that's the expectation here, maybe this isn't the right league for me.

I agree that it was impatient to tell Skerik to pick for you but people should be considerate and turn on the auto pick if they are going to be out for a while. Nobody expects you to be home all weekend, shit I was gone from 6pm Saturday until 12 am today, but I put my utility on auto just so I wouldnt hold up the people who were waiting to pick up. It only takes a half hour tops to put 20 to 30 players in the quene and rank them

that's how I feel too. The fact is that there are many owners that have been available to pick but haven't been able to. There is the autodraft available so 10+ owners are not sitting there twiddling their thumbs.

Gainesville has surrendered pick 3.16 due to bitching and moaning.

[Dave]

Port City has surrendered pick 3.19 for agreeing with Gainesville and thus bitching and moaning by association.

[Sully]

Wah.

[Dave]

Wah.

Your contribution is valued and appreciated, as always.

I mean that seriously, too. At least it wasn't, "sim," "pick for him and let's go," or "this sucks."

[Sully]

Not once did I say "pick for him". Get your facts straight.

LOL...at least let me do some real bitching with curse words before you take my picks away.

Did this forum get switched with the NBA forum over at OS?! #-o

I'm sorry. I was thinking of yesterday.

[Dave]

Z/V better pick soon! The Port City, Gainesville and Memphis fans at the draft are reaching for their torches and pitchforks....

[Sully]

Yeah, because we all know the Commish didn't want things to move along at a nice pace today. Who made that Brooklyn pick?

[Jistic]

Please let's not have the obligatory "There are more important things in life than an online fictional football league". That's as tiring as Madden/2K fanboy wars.

In other news. Mel really likes the picks of Alan Hernandez and Ike Brilz.....
