One of my favorite parts of the fantasy season is the AGS live draft. Our traditional draft date is the Sunday before labor day weekend at 8 or 9 p.m. This year, that date would be Sunday, Aug 24. I do not see this date listed as a conflict that anyone listed in the roll call thread. Does this day work for you? We can start at either 8:00 p.m. or 9:00 p.m.
I still laugh when I think about me picking the Jets kicker for Rovers in the 6th or 7th round last year.
Any Sunday night is good for me, Saturdays as well except for Aug 23rd.

Yeah, I'm still laughing.

Let's split the difference and start at 8:30 p.m. EASTERN Daylight Time. Let me know if there are any strong objections. Rovers, take your Geritol that day so you can stay up a little later.

You just want to make sure I'm good and drunk when the draft starts. Well, don't worry about that... if it was 1pm, I'd be drunk anyways.

A Jets fan trying to pick on a Lions fan? Put the beer down and back up slowly...

We're in the same boat Rov's, yours is just riding a lil lower.

What year did the Lions last make the playoffs? The Jetsies were in two years ago.... and now we have the "Brett". We're not in the same boat... I'm in the life raft and you are still on the Titantic, playin the fiddle with the rest of the orchestra!
Tick-tock.... tick-tock.... I'm ready boys! I got ten cases of beer and i'm pouring over my rankings... I think the ten cases should last until Sunday night....hmmmm... better make another beer run.

Nice try, Rovers, but he is my 10th round saved player. I'll trade him to ya if you want him!

Hit the refresh, the chat came up... fyi...
Well, sorry fellas.... I obvoiusly came out of the draft with the best roster. Better luck next year.... this year is MINE.
You boys all hung over, or what?
Click this... interesting, albeit it doesn't work for a keeper league or our scoring system...

http://football34.myfantasyleague.com/2008...29340&O=182I saw that last night, interesting but it only judges based on ADP and doesn't factor in league scoring etc... Basically, it's not a very accurate recap but fun nonetheless.
Does anyone notice when you go to your roster the status and year columns are all wrong? I'm hoping this will get fixed and I hope it wasn't like that going into this year's draft. The 'status' column is supposed to be the round drafted but for my team it's entirely wrong. The 'year' column is the year of keeper which is also wrong. It has guys I drafted last night as 2 like this is my second year, same guys have 'highest possilbe' under status.
Anyways, I hope the above can be fixed so we know where everyone stands as far as the keeper stuff goes.

Entertaining to say the least. I have the worst ranked draft according to them

Trying the two stud TE lineup this year. We'll see if it works out for me.

All player contract status have been updated through the 6th round of the draft. I'll work on some more tomorrow.
