    Definitely not like our normal 3 week long drafts.

    Going at a good pace. And I've been watching it all day today waiting for my turn.

    Crisco is up!

    The overall progress of the draft notwithstanding, I find it incredibly hypocritical for you to complain in any way about someone taking a significant portion of their drafting time. When you posted, Heath had been on the clock for all of 3 hours and 45 minutes. Not exactly prompt drafting, but far from ridiculous, particularly considering he lives on the other side of the planet.

    Let's review your history:
    Round 1: 2 hours, 43 minutes
    Round 2: 9 hours, 15 minutes
    Round 3: 2 hours, 22 minutes
    Round 4: emailed picks to DoD - well done!
    Round 5: 4 hours, 16 minutes
    Round 6: 4 minutes - good job!
    Round 7: 12 hours, 36 minutes
    Round 8: emailed picks to DoD
    Round 9: 2 hours, 28 minutes

    On top of your actual drafting time, you've repeated informed us that you'd be making your picks right around the time your 10 hours have expired, and you've disappeared several times only to ask forgiveness later. Then when it's not your pick and someone else has thing do to in real life like work and sleep, you get anxious and complain.

    If you need the 10 hours, fine. Take them. That's what they're there for. But don't complain or get restless if others do the same. And if you know you're not going to be around, that's what lists are for. It's just courtesy.

    DarkHorse, damn man.... what the hell is your problem? Why are you being such a prick? Are you staring at the screen 24/7 and monitoring all the moves everyone makes? Do you have a life?

    It's just a fantasy basketball draft. LET IT GO!

    Plus, the draft is going at a pretty good speed and it'll be done before the season starts.

    By the way, my pick is Ben Gordon.

    Such bad blood this year.

    Jent vs Smeg..
    DH vs NWO..

    This is going to be an interesting season. I kind of wish I had an enemy too.

    You suck PSJ. You're a loser and a goon and everybody hates you. You smell bad too. :p

    nWo and I have technically known each other since elementary school, so we're kind of like brothers fighting. :D


    I was just very perturbed the by "And the draft takes a halt" comment. Maybe the Astros have me on edge.

    nwo, Jent, you guys need to keep things in perspective. Who is the real enemy here? It has to be fade. It's so obvious that he's been goading you the whole since the draft has started. Just go back and look at his posts:


    Plus he thinks both your teams suck ass. That's like attacking your manhood, and not in a good way.

    Sorry if I'm getting pissed at the comments, DarkHorse, but just like you said, the Astros loss has put me on edge all day today.

    By the way, good editing on fade's comments. :)

    Good pick. A little young maybe, but she's got a lot of upside.

    Bob* -- could you change Okafor to a C when you get the chance? He's listed as a FC on NBA.com, but I plan to start him at C for pretty much the whole year.
