you know, I never even looked at the bye weeks before I drafted. Oh well, with long term keepers it might be screwed up next year anyway.

I already can't wait until next year's draft with 8 keepers.

I didn't think of that either. I just screwed up one of my D picks with 2 guys with a 6th week bye, but I normally check. But yeah..next year stuff could be messed up. Might be drafting people solely on their bye weeks.

Kickers? Your talking about kickers?!!! Do we even have them?

Actually "stunts" like that don't work in this league. People last year tried to take people hostage by drafting a bunch of qb's, only to find out that when the bye weeks come they had to drop them to fill spots.

We could always do a yahoo league for about 5 cents each. It saves the info by me printing out a couple sheets of paper and putting them in a special place to marinate for next year. I hear cbs charges extra for marinating.

I'm going to need to set up waiver rankings once we get the guys in yahoo. I think it is only fair that we go in opposite order from those that selected first in the open draft. So waivers would be from me->pappa.

Everyone will be suspect of the Hollings pick till he comes in for DD. Then you'll see why I stashed him on my bench. He's looked real good every time I've seen him. The odds are that him or steven jackson will be big for me.

sent you another q just in case. I might be able to scam the laptop for a little bit if I keep a low profile. The guy threatens to dock us like we are 9 years old for messing around in class.

According to Bonka's schedule he has something till 7 cdt. Hopefully after that we CAN move on. Lil is the only one i don't know about. He timed out in our other league and have been leaving q's but has run out.

Keep his (lils)q running, it is multi posistional and he has previously said to stop it after one round. There are 4 people still on it.

Seems a little shady that tom took Boss Bailey just before my pick since he was one of the few picks I sent him as a que in the event that I wasnt around for these last two picks.
