UP Fantasy Football League?

[hokiehigh]

I am fine any time.   I am out of town on Sunday though.   I am cool going through the auto-draft too if needed.

If I am going to auto draft do I need to do anything?  I will be going coastal this weekend probably can't make the draft for my Burgers team. 

[Merthecat]

Anytime is good for me, but I prefer a weekday night such as Monday or Tuesday.

Will next Monday night work for everyone? (Labor Day)

You could use SurveyMonkey to help figure out a draft day/time. That way we vote and the best day is determined. Next Monday evening works for me. Just can’t make it this Friday.

I should be able to do it.  If not, I will do Auto Draft.   Thanks for setting it up!

If anyone has any interest in drafting in person, might I suggest Pop the Top in south end? Best tap selection in town.

Draft changed to Monday, Sept 3rd, at 8p EST.  If you can't make the live draft (which I probably won't be able to), don't worry because Yahoo will pick the best available player based on your team needs for you as long as you've joined the league.  I thought there were 12 team spots but I guess it's actually only 10, and we're at 9 teams currently so it would be awesome if someone else from the forum took the last spot!

Just signed up.

Anyone wanna meet up for the draft tonight? Also, when does yahoo post the draft order?

[nicholas]

Everything should be set up correctly for the draft tonight.  Starts at 8p, pretty sure the draft lobby opens 15 mins prior to that.  I've got to close at work tonight, so I'm hoping the autodraft will come in clutch for me!  I believe the draft order is randomized by Yahoo, and whoever picks first in one round will pick last in the next round if that makes sense.

Shoot, I really should have started Ben Roethlisberger last night.  But I thought the Panther's defense was better than that, so I didn't.

As they say, hindsight's always 50/50.
