    Butler is available, but I cannot select him......everytime I back out and erase Ninkovic, the computer selects him before I get a chance to pick someone else, very frustrating.......don't know what to do.

    POS CBS Sports site.

    It seems more complicated than helpful.
    Maybe you have to use 2 devices simultaneously to erase then select the right player. If you want when I get into the office tomorrow we can try that?

    Actually the site does well, just oncein awhile it has these funny cliches.....

    What I did was drop Nikovich from your team and added Donald Butler for you.........

    No one can draft Butler if he still shows up on the draft board........

    Flash make sure your team is not on autopilot, I cannot do that -= if you missed your pick, which you did cause I was sleeping and did not know you needed me to pick, then it will automatically put you on autopilot..... Need that off then I can fix it.

    Moe I can switch it for you...

    The computer automatically selects for you if your time runs out by how your players are ranked, so you get a player and the draft continues and does not stop.....

    Once you have missed and been put on autopilot you must turn that off yourself...

    I know everyone loves doing this slow draft (I hate it, but tolerate it), but if we had decided to do a max 2 hour online live draft on Yahoo more closer to the opening of the regular season, we would all be stress free and waiting for our rosters to go head-to-head rather dealing with this CBS Sports mess.

    You are off autopilot now - if you see your logo in the draft room is hazy, your on autopilot, if its clear you are not.

    It did, cause I didn't realize you wanted me to pick...my bad. Once its off, let me know.

    I can turn it off, but I need to see your logo in the draft room and your not up for awhile.

    Nevermind I figured out how to fix it and took you off autopilot - Butler is on your team now, so we are all good.

    I'm still learning this software myself.

    I hear what your saying, but the slow draft is tradition with these leagues and what separates this league from all the others. Yes, it has it's issues from time to time and causes headaches from time to time, but in the end that's part of the sick fun.........

    Kind of funny, for some reason the league site sent me an update on the draft, because this site will do a draft recap when it is all said and done. Though, I am well aware my draft is going pretty crappy up to this point and know that I will be vying for the toiletbowl championship this year.......do I really need CBS rubbing it in. here is what they said:

    "Coach Sean (Rook) might want to ask Coach Michael Ziggy for some help next year, as their starting squad is ranked dead last in expected points. Coach Steres reached for several players, including Ben Tate, Montee Ball, and Russell Wilson. Wilson was rated as the 4th worst selection in the draft."

    Really, if I need to go to Coach Ziggy for advice, I'm hanging it up.......

    Picked up moes' cast-off Freeman. ILB tacklers are a good bet to at least repeat their level of production...

    The draft report I got from CBS was disturbing, it seemed to indicate that Jent and Chilcutt might be dead. "PSJ, please check in to see if either Rick or Mehdi have a pulse. We've been monitoring their draft, and by all indications, they have flatlined." WTF!
