aylbert Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Results are in and the start button was pressed see... SIX HOURS to go what the hell are y'all worried about You may breathe now!!! My big issue with 6 hours to go... with these offline drafts, they put all your players on the bench... so anyone who isn't around in the next 6 hours with a steeler/titan misses out. (IE: I have a bbq to attend to in half an hour... so If this got done at 2:30 and I had some players... theyd be on the bench to start week 1). And yes, I will always look at the worse case scenario... thats what I do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnderDogX Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 And I need Palmer on my team not Big Ben.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilsrule33 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Big props to Hasan and especially Ayl for running the draft. It was well organized and extremely updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, I will always look at the worse case scenario... thats what I do Well CRASHER swears he'll change the lineup retroactively if you can't get to a computer in time but I don't get why he would even want the additional headache other than the fact he just likes the drama and getting people edgy On the other hand though, he'd be going on someone's word after the fact if he did that. Say someone like Britt or LenDale White (not automatic starters) happens to have a big game tonight and Masked or marty couldn't set his lineup, what's to stop him from saying the next day oh I wanted to play Britt or White. And yes there is the little matter of Palmer-Roethlisberger to work out between ayl and RSC, that was my other issue with intentionally running out the clock but hopefully that gets resolved (even if Palmer takes a bite out of me this week with the home game against Denver, though Ochocinco might cancel some of that out).

CRASHER Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 If you PM me with a timestamp of BEFORE the game I have no problem doing it if Fat Boy slim gets 200 yards and you tell me after you wanted him in... then suck it Week 1 is fixed now swapping Ben and Palmer (and still at work ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSC might have a beef if he doesn't know about the PM rule considering he has Johnson and Bironas (two automatic starters on his team) and one of the few lineups not set yet.

CRASHER Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 He's got football, bro. For all we know he has a scrimmage and won't be in until 10PM tonight. he posted at 6:57 pm here in the random thread... he had time and he set his roster anyway tis moot point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 So the last one to draft is the last one to set his lineup...but Clown likes the last minute drama too so he'll probably do it 8:25 or so If he doesn't Ward's the only player that's affected by it...I don't know if that'll make or break him on the week though.

NJDevs4978 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 That would be dr...but at least he was smart enough to take Shaun Hill instead of Delhomme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aylbert Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Very true. My knoshown pick is making me look more and more stupid now... but seriously: here's the excerpt from the main mag I was using: "Moreno's skill as a reciever make him a better three-down player than any other rookie running back, and many running backs in the league already. Denver signed too many RB's this offseason to give him a full workload this season, but he'll play plenty. Treat him as a low-end NUMBER 1 RUNNING BACK, top-notch number 2" Guess who just joined the firewood? Holy hell... they tell you why he can't be a starter (cant give him a full workload); yet tell you to use his has your RB1 or prime RB2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
