No, but you should be dammit!! And a good draft time for you. I don't want you having any excuses for losing. When did you lose your internet? Thought you'd been a little scarce. We are doing some renovating in our house, and we managed to break our fiber cable that delivers the signals for our TV, Phone and Network. Got it working again today, so I'm back on the grid!

Can I suggest we do both on the Monday one after the other. Selfishly this works 100% for me and it seems like the Monday is a good day for most. It would be much better to do both your drafts on the same day rather than on seperate days. Dont wanna be doing drafts every night now do we.

It would be much better to do both your drafts on the same day rather than on seperate days. Dont wanna be doing drafts every night now do we. Great! As you've noticed, I made my Yahoo league Sept 5th at 4 PM, and not heard that that doesn't work for anyone. Good for you, yes? You said so b4. Do you think we could ask zac to make his within 2 & 1/2 or 3 hours of mine 9/5? Would be good for jersdal too. I could leave my NFL one at 8/28 at 3:30. I know jers can't make it, but that's what it's been, and not sure we could do 3 in 1 day. Neil, the thing I'm still not sure about for you is the earliest time you can make a draft? 7 or 8 or later PM your own time? Welcome home, how was your vaca? R U SURE you wanna be in London next week? Looks crazy scary all over town, like a war zone.

so the nfl league is def the 28th then? Yes, that is what it has always been from day 1, so not inclined to change it unless someone wants to start a poll and ask if Sept 4th at 4 PM or Sept 5 at 6:30 PM works (the Yahoo league is Sept 5 at 4 PM).

The earliest for me is 8pm. Hope thats Ok? Are both on same day then? Would you like both the same day? I could make one Mon Sept 5 at 3 or 3:30 and the other one 2 & 1/2 hours later? Every time slot is open on Sept 5 in both leagues. I would love this as jersdal could make them both them. And haven't heard anything from anyone else that that was a bad day. I'd imagine you'd like the drafts to be over by around 1 AM at the latest, maybe by midnight to 12:30? If you're certain that 3 EST works, I can start the other at 5:30, just 10:30 PM by you. Still 5 hour diff, right? Not sure with daylight savings time.

Would really like it if you moved it to sept 5 Then consider it a done deal. Neil, I got your PM. Sept 5th it is. Tail end of a holiday weekend, evening for the Euros. Times will be 3 PM EST and 5:30 PM EST. Or 3:30 and 5:30 or 6 PM?? If I was certain a draft could be finished in an hour and a half, I would make them 2 hours apart. In my experience that is enough time. I'm inclined to make the Yahoo draft the later one since there are 3 IDPs and 7 bench spots. AND Yahoo has the option for a 2 minute max per pick, so selected that. Good? Although it's only gonna be a 10 team, so may go quicker. Any other comments welcome. BTW, Zac made his draft Aug 27 at 8 PM EST. Maybe you guys should talk to him. Would love to have something concrete in mind, but we don't know if the powers that be at the graveyard might be inclined to move the time to like Sept 4th mid afternoon so Zac can make his like 6 PM. Neil, I know you don't like Saturdays, but is it okay as long as it's late-ish?

I'm guessing you are referring to GMT here, Neil? So 8Pm for you would be around 5 o'clock eastern, right?

Well aware of both your situations, and my drafts have been moved to Sept 5 at 3 & 5:30 EST. This is probably the 3rd time you're reading it. lol Hopefully we can do something about zac's ADD. ;-P

At least at our Yahoo league I know Tommyboy could probably not make the old date, but this date is good. So far the change helps at least 2 or 3 people, so all is good - or better. lol

I'm good for most any date & time. I might be on a beach on the 5th, but I'll find an open connection somewhere. I know there's a BK with WIFI near Navarre Beach. Unless everyone wants to come to Florida for draft day and rent a huge-ass condo…
