Ditto. 9 is just as good as 8
Yay! I look forward to it.
By the way, who’s the 8th member of the league?
Let us see let us see. Got 2 new members so we’re at 10. Gonna cap it there, doubt we’ll get another two.
League:

Live Draft Thursday September 1st and 9pm Eastern.
Look over the league scoring rules/position rules/trade deadline/etc and if you want something changed lemme know
Just reconfirming, Thursday is September 3rd, not first. Or, were you planning Tuesday instead of Thursday?
Edit: The wesbsite says Tuesday.
Date: Tue., Sep. 1, 2009
Had a brain fart, meant 3rd on both, said 1st. Bah fixing now
Hm. Not letting me do 9 exactly. 8:45 or 9:15. Gotta go 9:15, that’s too GWC to not do it
Sweet, a 10-people league! That’s much better. This is gonna be fun.
I find 10- or 12-team leagues are the most fun. You still know who your players are, but you’re also not fielding a team made up completely of superstars.
Looking forward to it!
I saw that someone made their team the C-Bucs and I decided to make up an Aerilon team. I hope it’s scarier than my normal team name: The Housecats.
EDIT: And Jarathen Jr. turned one a few weeks ago. I’m sure he would love to mash the keyboard and draft a kicker first.
I think that’s me. AND I WILL GET YOU VENTURE! I mean…um, good luck. Let’s have a good league…yeah.
Please. Don’t make me have to go Brock Sampson on you.
Nice draft, everyone!
I thought I’d share the draft result with everyone.

Corrected!
Great! This will be fun!
Prays to the NFL god, John Madden, that he won’t come in last place
Only thing I’m gonna say about the draft is defenses got drafted WAAAAAAAAAAY too early.
And Turner mad late, if he wasn’t auto-picked I thought he was gonna fall to 8th.
Yeah, Turner went late. But his workload bothers me. Too many carries. I think he’s an injury risk.
it was definitely an odd draft. i kind of shied away from turner because of his workload and increased preparatio among other teams, but i do think he’ll do very well against his division rivals.
as far as how players went, even with QB-friendly scoring like we have, this was still one of the oddest drafts i’ve been in. defenses went high and many players filled out their starting lineup, or most of it, before moving on. ultimately the season makes fools of us all, so i’ll be very interested to see how it goes.
Technically Turner went with an auto pick but that was only because I am blind & didn’t see the giant red “Pick this player” button. I had already decided on taking him.
It took me a good 20-30 seconds to see that giant red button. I’m used to more simple interfaces, so I felt like an idiot when I saw the quite literal giant red button that said “DRAFT” on it.
