The 2008 Fantasy League draft will be held on Saturday, March 8th. An email to the league will be going out later today.
Location - John Street Bar and Grill - that will be confirmed as the time draws near. Early afternoon start-time.
If you are reading this and were involved last year, please confirm to Balls or myself if you are coming back. Once we get the lay of the land, we will start looking to fill the open spot, or spots.
You all have 3 months notice, so clear your decks.

Wait on me no more. Count me in { the money that is } I look forward to are spring G.M. meetings & seeing all your mugs in a Bar for 6 hours . Drafting this early I can see someone's top 5 pick coming up with a arm or hammie injury that putts them on the D.L. for the start of the year. I am looking to Finish in the MONEY yet again this year. last year was an abomination on my record. No Milton I don't want to trade you B.J.Uptown for some pitcher on your bench : )

Hey, speaking of Milton - if any of you have a way to reach him, please do so and lets find out his deal. The number Balls and I had for him is now being answered by someone else, he is not answering his emails, and he is no longer working at the job we had been reaching him at.

OK, Milton has been contacted, and is locked and loaded. We are waiting on Suzy, in regards to returning members. There looks to be only one open slot after all, and thats from Laura getting the boot.

While it's not my call, I guess you would rank third if there was a wait list overall, second though in 2008.

Yeah, for this year Nettles 9 is next in line, in case of a late drop. While I am happy everyone is returning, I am also stunned. Something to be said for our league when no one wants to leave, nor gives us a reason to boot em.
If/when openings start popping, you are now under serious consideration, you would make a healthy addition to the league.

Ok, I confirmed with the bar this morning. John Street Bar and Grill. I would like people to start arriving around noon, we need to start this by 1 to be done by the dining hours. So what we are going to do is start setup around noon, and start no later than 1. If you are not there by 1, you are seriously late, and we start without you. If everyone is there before 1, we just may kick it off a bit early.
Balls will be sending an email on all this in the next day or so. Thanks, l look forward to seeing you all there - promptly!

It has gone over 5 hours long in the past, and never wrapped up earlier than four hours. Starting by 1, I am figuring we would be wrapping up between 5 and 6.
