You're right, I forgot how far away the season was.

This.

ESPN's software has been improved over the last couple years, and it is far superior than any other site I've played at.

That is where we have our Fantasy Basketball league (The one that I am gonna win)

Never played on espn, but if it is that good, I have no problems with it.

Also, later is better for the draft. However, unless a ton of stars fall perfectly into allignment, there is no chance I will get to draft live. (I assume espn has some kinda thing where you can preset your ratings.)

Yeah, you can set up a draft order if you can't make a live draft.

F I forgot to keep money online to pay for this.

Everyone OK with me sending Friday?

I can probably work something else out if it needs to be done now(but would prefer to just send Friday obv)

Edit: I'm ok with any amount

The draft probably isn't going to be for a couple of weeks at least, so we don't need to worry about roses yet.

One thing I'd like to point out about espn. I've played on a baseball & football league on both espn & yahoo for the past 4 years. It never fails on espn if someone pre-ranks a team instead of doing the live draft they end up with a screwed up team, ie: 6 QB's and 1 each of the rest of the positions or 5 1b and no extra outfielders. ESPN's software is ****ty at best in my opinion, it's hard to find and classify stats and just clunky all together. Basic functionality is ok, but other than that I hate espn. A year or so ago basic functionality wouldn't even work reasonably well unless you were using firefox. That said I'm in two leagues there already so, whatever.

20 - 25 roses is fine for me.

20-25 good for me.

Lesson I learned from the fantasy football league (and last years baseball, iirc): Lets decide on a payout structure BEFORE the season starts.

Just to throw something out there. 50/25/15/10.

Same thing happened on yahoo to me last year. If there was a crappy 2nd baseman available in the later rounds, I got him. Is there anyway to specify the breakdown of postitions on your final roster?

Which works out to 200 100 60 40 if we have 16 teams at 25 roses

Sounds perfect

disregard then, I've never seen that happen on yahoo but apparently it does. It must be something about manually ranking the pre-draft roster, not sure.

I've never used the autodraft feature before, so I have no idea how it works.
