DRAFT chat

All sports. We don't even mind if its women's Curling or junior badminton. Although we won't have strong opinions on the latter.

How did we ever get a draft done with 10 people.

With great pain and a lot of PMs. I remember being 3 away and I’d PM Reign 4 options in lexicalnorder for him to grab for me if my turn came up whilst in bed. I also recall having panic attacks when someone would be offline. They logged in. Said “Marvin Harrison” and logged off. Trouble was that Harrison was taken since like round 2, and we would have to wait once again until they returned. Was pretty fun in the end, albeit horrible.

Was always funny when someone did that with the guy that was obviously not going to be there in that round.

The draft was like a defacto IQ test.

Also says a lot about both us and football that we have drafted many guys who have not only retired, but been retired long enough to be in the hall of fame.

The very first time I played fantasy baseball, I organized a league in my high school, and someone drafted Michael Jordan. Good times.

Yup. First time playing fantasy football ever, had no idea about strategy. Just what said it’d be the top within a given category. Was pretty failuriffic. Still didn’t come last though. :)

Fuck me running! Sorry boys, but I've spent 6 days in plumbing hell. What I thought was a simple slow drain in the tub turned into a complete cluster-fuck. We're talking jackhammers, busting out dry-wall, blood, sweat and tears, the whole nine. I'm 10k deep and not even done because I have to re-tile the whole bathroom, FML. Whatever you're doing keep going, sorry again, not at all in my plans.

Can you say R.I.P. to a shoulder? You can deal without, right? P sure I should have hospitalized for it, but fuck it, mere flesh wound.
