We are finishing up our "slow" portion of the draft. our league is funny--since we are all spread around the country we often resort to a "slow draft" where we all collaborate on a google spreadsheet and pick at roughly 12 hour intervals. Some of the guys take their time or have other things to do, some watch the draft sheet with baited breath always calling ahead when the clock flips over. This year, we had the pleasure of 10 of us getting together to do the first 8 rounds live--with the two bastards dialed in via webcast and whatnot. Well it went off without a hitch and when the format of our league permits, I could see us doing a live draft again. I guess I will set the ground rules for how we play and let you know that most of the other posts will a) be shorter and b) actually give you some information you may find useful. As for this one--prepare for long and worthless.
We started about 5 years ago, when most of us were wrapping up our college careers. We have had a little turnover and even lost a member due to illness, but we have battled through with 3 leagues(Baseball--the fantasy Holy Grail, Football--a sport that is really for the fantasy weakling, and basketball--a daily league that gets us from football to baseball pretty nicely) for many years and even drafted a constitution. 12 team leagues with customized scoring and highly competitive standings--everyone has their specialty sport and some excel at 2, but few can dominate all 3.
Anyway, without further explanation, I will open the blog up to the real value add members and let them talk about something useful.
