    You can always count on my boy Fade to rationalize each of his picks..........but did not expect that to start in the first round..................not a good sign.... :p

    Don't worry, PSJ is usually pretty good at picking rather quickly in these drafts.......

    I'd rationalize your picks too, but unfortunately they're beyond all hope.

    I wish more people would explain their reasoning. I really enjoy reading commentary drafts and the like. But y'all are a bunch of stiffs.

    For the record, I did rationalize my pick...........I said that I was picking from the heart, win or lose. But, now after seeing your picks I am starting to feel more confident.

    I agree, it is more fun during these things when there is a little more commentary, then just seeing names picked.

    12 hours is a tad over the top even for me and my timezone

    plus have no problems sending a list

    will be up for another 4 more hours after that Pimpman has my list and will leave him to analyze my pick :)

    I agree. 8 hours is tons. I'd even impose a penalty of reducing the pick time for those who let their clock expire, but I'm a hardass like that.

    On the other hand, it just wouldn't feel like a proper ClutchFans draft if people didn't stall things now and then. :p

    The 12 hour rule is in place mainly to compensate for late night picks (like last night) and give the team next in line a chance to make their pick without being skipped. Trust me, as the draft goes on and we get closer to the start of the season, I will look at reducing the draft time, especially for anyone that exceeds 12 hours or regularly takes the majority of their time. We're doing fine for now, but we will begin skipping people this round if necessary.

    Oh yeah... because I think he's a bargain at this pick.
