4th Annual BGO Ballers Fantasy Football League

I'll go with whatever you say. But personally, I think it should be as close to opening week as possible. At least after the 3rd preseason game is over.

Aug. 25th, or Sept. 1st would be my choice.

Well, most of the 3rd preseason games would be over on the 19th, I believe. There might be a couple going on, and one on Monday. Problem is, there is very limited availability on Sunday 8/25 - 4:45pm (and earlier) or 9pm (and later) CST are the choices.

EDIT: whoops, I stand corrected - 3rd week of preseason is the following week.

Is 10pm EST too late for you guys on 8/25?

 

[Goaldeje]

I can probably make that work.

I'm good with it.

Okay, Canadian Hog & McD5 have joined - and then there was one. Mr. Fruity Beer himself is the last one to register.

How does everyone feel about some sort of game to decide the draft order? Perhaps an arcade challenge? Or do you want to just stick with the old-fashioned Yahoo! random order generator...

Works for me.

Son of a...between the time of my post and now, the 9 and 9:15pm slots got filled. Grrr...so I have it set for 10:30pm EST right now, just so it doesn't get taken again.

I'll do whatever you guys agree on as long as its after 6pm Pacific if sunday. Having been stung in the past by people like Ricky Williams "retiring" and freak injuries, I tend to agree with Ax on it being as close to opening days as possible.

I am traveling the 25th but I will either make it work or set my stuff to "auto". Did you do the draft order yet, Lanky? No rush, just curious.

I can't do Labor Day weekend, I'll be traveling.

Lanky, I didn't ask to move it. We're good. I'll figure it out.

ugggh, hate to be a buzzkill, but I get up at 4 AM so a draft starting at 10:30 PM will make for a long night. I'd prefer earlier, but if the time is the only option, I'll live with it for the benefit of the rest of you sleep-in-ers.

Sorry, wasn't responding to you, was responding to Ax & Dead Money. I didn't quote him, my bad.

I suppose we can do 5:45pm EST, but that is right in the middle of dinner time. I am doing Sunday evening to accommodate your request - would you rather have it around then?

Come on Ss!

As a fellow 4am'er, we can hack it.

Question? Can you enter a draft late and switch to manual if you had it set to auto? I work on Sundays and I'm not always clear until 6pm PST

Yeah, its a little checkbox next to your name that says something like Autodraft? next to it. If checked, the computer will make your pick for you. If unchecked, it assumes you will make the pick.

 

[Lanky Livingston]

I don't want anyone to have to miss the early rounds...SS, anyway you can suck it up for at least the first few rounds? I can drop the time limit this year, so that will move things along a little quicker. I was thinking 60 seconds per pick (its usually 90).

I can definitely suck it up, no worries! I'm just glad to be a part of it!

 

[Kel Varnsen]

Any time is fine with me. If I can't be there, I'll just setup the auto draft. It might pick a better team than I would anyway.

This is probably true for most of us, we just don't like to admit it.
