The draft is set up in MFL, here are the links:

2008 MSHB Draft

Live Draft Room

Live Draft IP


You folks know the drill, but there are a few things to remember...

-There is only one full IDP draft, no separate rookie draft.
-There is no timer, but everyone should do their best to keep the draft moving.
-There is no trading before or during the draft.
-Above all, have fun.

Any other questions you can post here and/or PM me.

I won't have time to do it during the week, but I'll probably get this thing kicked off this weekend. Everyone remember though, that the official start date is still the 21st. Take care everyone, have a great draft & good luck this season!

Just a reminder that if you draft via the live draft room, unless something has changed, it will not trigger the e-mail updates. I know I generally rely on those as they come in to my phone so I know when I am coming up. So, I would reccomend that you follow the standard non-live draft method if at all possible.

And we're off...

So... looking over last year's draft, you're all a bunch of RB whores, right?

I am not going to be around at all from Thurs-Mon, I thought we were waiting until the 21st? I am trying to find someone to help me out now

Don't sweat it T. The actual start date is still the 21st. There's really no rush.

Off and running.

Take a Kicker

ps- Why cant we see the MSHB II draft?

I do have a guy, SF409ers (Greg), that will be checking in on things for me.

Who?

When TOS set up the leagues he made them password protected & I'm not sure how to make them viewable again. I'll check into when I have time to.

I think I got it viewable now, but had to look hard for that area.

Thanks a ton Big John.

If Bunz doesn't show by the weekend I'll give her a ring & rattle her bathtub.

I am SO SO sorry guys......I had the wrong date in my head for a start date. Old-timers setting in I suppose.

It won't happen again.
Happy Drafting!!

I started early.

Busy morning. Sorry for the hold up.

Just picked...LJ

Marshawn was my other pre-select.

I was in a bit of a rush and didn't look close enough. I probably would have taken Portis but thought he had been taken already. I have them about even anyhow so.......

Better than finishing early like you usually do....


I'll be out of town until late Sunday night. Not sure if I get cell reception or not, but if I do then I should be able to get online and check in.

I'll do better next time I promise...first time jitters ya know.

Alchico must be stuck at Denny's.

IHOP

Actually been a little distracted, i've been watching my grandsons because they have a new little sister.
Makayla Desiraye, 8lbs 3 oz, mother and baby are doing fine and papa is on cloud 9.

Congrats bud

Whooohoooooooo......Congrats!

Oh, and mmmm... IHOP. It's been too long for me. Their chocolate chip pancakes are delicious. I used to go to IHOP every other week or so on Sundays before NFL games. Mmmm.... good stuff.

Moss/Fitz

BTW, looks like Balla is on a little vacation without good 'net access... so if need be I can make picks for him. Text me if either he or I come up... and I'll get a hold of him and will bring him up to speed on who's gone, etc. I have his password so I can pick for him...

Moss/Fitz is a nice start. You might not have any RBs, but IMO getting Fitz to pair with Moss (who went about where he should have) is a boon. I like Fitz as WR3.

Fitz and Edwards were both on my list but in the end I decided to go with the Homer pick. It will be very interesting to see how the next few rounds play out.

Can someone post the site so I can watch the draft along with my MSHBII? Thanks.

I may be in the minority, but I like J.Lewis in the middle to late 2nd in any draft this season. Hopefully Martz doesn't kill Gore this year and I like my 2 backs.

I'm going for the all-gimpy team. Clinton Portis and Steve Smith should give me a solid 16 games... combined.

No minority as far as I'm concerned. I considered him and was hoping he would last till my next pick. I knew he wouldn't but a guy can hope.

I had him as my next selection and TOS takes him, right before my pick.

WR3? Really? You're not serious...

We can start one RB here.... there are still a ton of very solid options.

That had to be a typo. My guess is he meant he would be ecstatic to have him as a WR2.

I didn't say I liked him as a WR3. I said I liked him as WR3. You know.....WR1 = Randy Moss, WR2 = Reggie Wayne, WR3 = Larry Fitzgerald.

You guys are a little reading challenged

Woohoo! PWilly come on down . I wish it didn't have to be Chad with him though.

Just like in MSHB II the draft link & IP link are in the first post.

Off to go see Batman. I'll be very happy with any of the three possibilities that land on my team.

Tell him I said hi.

Dark Knight highly recommended. good two hours on a great movie, good way to spend an afternoon. That's all. and I still get to pick my 3rd round player.

Riiiiiiiight... rare photo of CN

And a rare pic of NSab...

He is ready to take his Harley-Davidson to Austin.
