Can we set it for tomorrow night? Or is this no longer a live draft. I can be there.

I am new to this so I have a few questions: Is this an auto draft or not?
What happens to the ones who can't be at the live draft?
Is there a way for some to do the live draft and the others not present be auto drafted?
This may be some dumb questions, but like I said I am a virgin at this Fantasy Football stuff.

I would say you're just a plain old virgin at more than just fantasy football, but your wife told me how much better and bigger I am than you so you must have gotten some at some point.

My understanding is that this is a live draft but if you are not present your team will be drafted automatically using the Yahoo Ranking, or your own ranking if you choose to edit yahoo's list.

Thanks dude. You are such a good friend.

The trash-talking begins early.

Better get another team in 3 hrs 56 min.

Thanks, sometimes I just didn't feel like driving down to Brunswick County to service your wife while you were on your AT thruhike, but I would have felt bad if she got in such a need that she strayed on you. To be honest, I don't think you've ever properly thanked me for that.

I set up the dummy team. We're all set.

Looks like Toejammers has an easy schedule for the first 2 games at least.

Yeah, we'll see. I didn't do too bad for picking last - shoulda taken Devery Henderson though!

I'll be making some trades with the Dummies. Muahhahahahahaaaaa!!!!

I would hope that dummies loves his team and would never trade.

Me and The Dummies are already talkin' some serious trades.

sacco, I was wondering why you picked some of those guys but I thought you were there.

no way dude. my work pc network would not let me in to the draft.

i can't believe how schitty yahoo autodrafts

I went in and edited yahoo's draft list just in case I couldn't make it. Most of the picks went pretty much in order down my list, but there were some strange ones that got pulled from way down.
hyway

I am very happy with my team. Autodraft ROCKS!
mildbill

I think The Dummies may have done better than you sacco. Addai and Bush are pretty much wasted.

Should I manage their lineup every week and make people beat them?
nogranola
5:39:42 PM
9/04/07

I think we should let whoever they are playing manage them :)
hyway
5:44:27 PM
9/04/07

I could just leave all of their roster spots empty, but then 4 teams would get an extra freebie.

Besides, they already said they wanted to trade me Fitzgerald, Addai and the Miami Defense for Tatum bell, Greg Jennings and Green Bay. You think I should take the trade?

dunno...
thats the problem with dummy teams unless you have 7 teams (then each team gets 2 freebies)

it does suck that 1) the dummy autodrafted a way better team than me (and a couple other guys i think) and 2) guys like addai are wiped for the season...

there's no good answer.

however you want to handle it ng
sacco

We should probably let them play. I'll let someone else fill out their roster on the weeks that I play them.

Sacco--

You got good and screwed with Dominick Rhodes. But there are few running backs still available that are an injury away from having a lot of potential.

At least you didn't get Tim Dwight and Brad Hoover :-)
nogranola
6:16:15 PM

I think with this team its the guys who play them twice that are getting screwed. The Dummies are the strongest team.

I got them both! LOL I hope at least Dwight gets picked up by someone before the season starts.

mildbill, it doesn't get any better. Looks like you are #8 on the waiver wire. Peyton better have a monster day

The Dummies are not the strongest team. Get a gander at my running back situation :)

Although I'm still pissed that I took Tatum Bell when Brandon Jackson was still on the board. That's what i get for multitasking and not paying attention.
nogranola
10:49:55 AM
9/05/07

He's a starter now, btw ;) Hopefully he will do well for me.



(of course, I had planned on taking Tatum but he wasn't on the board when my turn came so I took Jackson instead)

BTW, you better hope your backs are stunning this week because Lee Evans is going to be doubled the whole game by Dre Bly and Champ Bailey.

Fortunately I didn't base my entire team on the strength of one receiver :-)
nogranola

oh crap, is it too late to redraft?
hyway
11:43:18 AM

Yes! Besides, I'm trading with The Dummies for Larry Fitzgerald
