RCT Fantasy Draft

Just wanted to put something up to discuss here. So we need one more owner, as it stands, or we postpone? I'd like to get it done tonight.

I would, too.

But, it ain’t gonna happen tonight. Sorry. If Slim came around more often, I could put him in. Besides, I already set the new draft time. You all should have gotten an email about it. If not, let me know, and I will re-send.

I actually immediately panicked, because knowing KC, I figured some other fan from another school (most likely Mizzou) came over and said something stupid. Then, KC freaked out at him, and said something stupid (no offense, KC, but this really wouldn’t be that extraordinary for you to pull off) and then there was mass hysteria. I would have to ban people, and warn people, and it’d be mass chaos." - SlowDance

Ok, wow

I missed that it changed from 23 to 30, I still saw 23… Hopefully we can get this thing rolling.

Insanity is just a state of mind.

by KTJ on Mar 23, 2009 8:43 PM CDT up reply actions  

Yeah, sorry about that.

It should have sent out an automatic email to everybody. Hopefully Slim will come through sometime this week. If not, labba is trying to get Bensa to do it, and fill in as the 10th. No matter what, it WILL happen a week from tonight (March 30th).

Unrelated and OT

But wasn’t there a Blake Bell FanShot here, earlier?

I checked at school really fast, and I saw it.

Then, I came back later, and it wasn’t on anymore.

by rockchalk on Mar 23, 2009 9:10 PM CDT reply actions  

Yes, there was one Denver put up earlier.

Hopefully Lew Perkins isn’t pissed off at our success and is sabotaging the sight.

by hunter s. royal on Mar 23, 2009 9:21 PM CDT up reply actions  

I'm assuming

Denver yanked it down, since it was kind of a null story. It was a story, until it was proven false, then it wasn’t really newsworthy anymore.

yeah...I threw it up...

turns out it was a misquoted report so I left it up for awhile with the update for anyone that had already seen it but then I figured it was worth simply deleting because it was just that a non-story…

basically rivals had reported he had trimmed his list to 10 but then he told the main rivals guy that the ND site had misquoted him and they had simply asked what schools he was looking at to which he gave a few. Said he hasn’t eliminated anyone and is going to take several visits before doing so.

Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.

Yup, that.

Whew

I’m damn glad we didn’t have it tonight. I got caught up in the catastrophe known as driving home and just now got in. I was all kinds of worried I was going to miss the draft and end up with 14 Third Basemen.

I am Jack's unbridled optimism.

nah,

just 14 Royals.

I went ahead

and determined the draft order, by way of a random draw. By doing it this way, instead of letting ESPN.com do it, it allows us to trade picks if anybody wants to. The order goes like this:

1. Slam Dunk The Funk (Slam Dunk The Funk)
2. Denver Dall Sheep (Denver)
3. KC88 Greinke’s Meds (KCs88)
4. Cy Lincecum (giants)
5. Your Mom (labba)
6. Slow Dance (SlowDance)
7. Western Kansas AAA All Stars (4ships)
8. Team Mexituff (Esteban)
9. Warden’s Royals (Warden)
10. The 10 the person, whoever that ends up being.

If so, you HAVE to take a WR.

Still looking for a 10th?

I’ve got some questions, but I’m considering it, having been invited by Labba.

1. Is there any fee?
2. Actually, question 1 is about it. I just got laid off, so money is tight right now.

Also, I’ve done fantasy football, but never baseball. I’m a quick study, but I have no idea what I would be doing starting off, so if that’s a problem, let me know.

by Bensa on Mar 24, 2009 9:39 PM CDT reply actions  

No fee.

and I have no idea what I’m doing either, so at least I might have competition for last place ;D

by Warden11 on Mar 24, 2009 10:24 PM CDT up reply actions  

Like everybody said,

no fee. And it’s not a deep league, so there will be plenty of good players to go around and build a solid team. I think at this point, that Slim has had long enough that if you decide you want to accept, Bensa, that you are in.

Yeah, I got it

but I’m for some reason not able to assume the team, change the name or owner’s name, etc. Any ideas on that?

I mean, Team 10 is a fine name, but I’d like to personalize it, if at all possible.

Click "My Team"

then, just above the team name, hit “Edit Team Info”. Should all be in there.
