Matt,

Got your email, and will probably compete. I have two drafts to do very soon, but tentatively count me in.

I don't know if I qualify as an old time groupie, but I've been to the boards on and off for the last 4 years. If I can make the draft, I'd like to get a chance to play with some of the rotoguru legends. If I make the cut, let me know if you need another player.

The Political board was trying to form a secondary league and couldn't quite fill it. We'd need 5 slots at the moment.

Baldwin, in the league on the Yahoo site, 8 teams are listed. Not sure if there are more commitments that have not signed up for the league yet...

So with Gary (nice to see you again! Still Euchring?) and Unemployed (still!?!), we have 10? Do we have a draft order? Do we have a leader?

Chuck,
At one point there were two Chucks on the board, and one of them changed names to Chuckball to avoid confusion (if memory serves...)

Does this ring a bell?

aa-- I know I remember there being multiple "chucks" around before, too. I'm not sure if the other "chuck" went to chuckball, or if that was just someone new coming in with that name. That's just too far back for my memory :-)

When the boards first started, I didn't know how popular a place this might become. Hence, I was happy to go with "Chuck". So much for originality :-/

Just wondering what our draft status is. I'm heading in to work and will check in from there.

Should I leave a queue? ;)

Argh, sorry for the delay guys. I've been deathly ill the last few days, and haven't even been able to get out of bed.

I just emailed 5 people for the 4 spots and it will be first come first serve. The draft will commence as soon as the league is full. We're gonna have to move pretty quick on the draft if we want to be ready by opening day. I will make a thread on the standings forum in a few minutes.

Good Luck to all!

I'm bailing in a few and won't be on for a couple hours. If by some miracle we get it started, I'll leave 4 (obvious) picks just in case I'm near the top of the draft:

1 - ARod
2 - RJ
3 - Soriano
4 - Vlad

Let's roll!
