Central time, right? I assumed since you and I are so close, but wanted to make sure.

Yay, go Ducks!

What youngergirl said. Central time, right? I have it on my calendar for 8:30 EDT. I should be able to make the time I quoted, but if it is an hour earlier it will autodraft for me.

And, who can I bribe to move up? ;)

We're #12! We're #12!

And yes, 7:30 Central, giving me just enough time to get home from class and open a beer. See y'all there.

terrapin: I was going to ask who do I bribe to go down. I feel a little uncomfortable up there at #1. : /

I couldn't decide whether to participate (i.e., stop in a bar on the way home) or to auto-draft (i.e., go home and relax), but being second in the draft order has pretty much made the decision for me.

I always hate not knowing which team name goes with which online name (because come on, you have to know who you're trash talking), so here's a list:

Chicago Zoob Turtles = sisterhavana
Kiss the Baby = kyleg
Terrapin's Deadheads = terrapin
Allegheny Ducks = octothorpe
Lighthouse Hotboxes = box
Clan of terrorists = ibmcginty
Skankshot Rodeo = "Little Pink Fox" (who is this?)
Mount Crushmore = ufez
The Kenosha Kids = drezdn
Astoria Avengers = stynxno
The Raging Zuzus = me
That weird morse code thingy = danostuporstar

Oh, duh. Skankshot rodeo = little pink fox = youngergirl. Sorry. Need more caffeine.

Would it be better if folks in the live draft switched their team names to MeCha names temporarily for the draft?

Anybody else having trouble getting the draft to load? The "now loading" bar just about finishes but then gets stuck trying to "Read l.yimg.com".

Crap, totally spaced on the draft.

Wait... no rainbaby!? She defected to the Grey? And I didn't? Boo... this will be the first year we haven't played together (either here of SportsFilter) since, what, 2002 maybe.

Looks like the SpoFi league has stalled at 11 teams. Maybe you could convince her to even that out for us?
