2017 Fantasy Football - Too soon? - Page 4 - Two Plus Two Pokercast

Yeah, I'll probably invite you and the other guy tonight after work to get us back to 14. I just don't want to have the draft stall because of that.

If one of you joins and the other doesn't 90 minutes before the draft, I'll be cutting the league back to 12 just to be safe.

I think the draft room opens with draft order 90 mins before the draft start so you might want to do that a bit before that. I think last year it had to be postponed because something wasn't right when the draft room opened.

Looking forward to it guys. Would be great to meet everyone a bit more. We should try to organise a Skype video chat or something for during the draft.

great. it will be good to have 14 teams if it happens...

btw, if anyone wants to do a separate auction draft, i'm willing to be commish for a different league. if we can get 10-12 teams together for an auction draft, 1/2 pt PPR, let's do it! $100 buy-in?

just PM me if you are interested.

How far in advance do we get to find out what our draft order will be? (Not that I have any doubt I'll be WAY back in the queue...)

Is your house partially underwater or just surrounded by it?

Come on eleanor60....

Your ESPN Fantasy Football Draft is scheduled for August 30 at 10:00 PM ET but your league is not full yet.
Pokercast
Be aware that if the league is not full at least one hour before the scheduled draft time, your draft will not be held and you will have to reschedule for another time.

If you aren't in the league by 8:00 PM ET I will cut the league back to 12 teams and have to kick out FyteOn as well.

My internet at home has been beyond slow, so I highly doubt I'll be able to do this.

We hope the house is still dry. Everyone had to evacuate until the river peaks Friday morning, so we're not sure what happened for about 24 hours while no one was there to check, but the most recent pictures look good.

Either way I feel like I'm running good since the house flooded in 2015 and was damn close in 2016.

I'm safe in Dallas, but might miss the draft unless I can quietly sneak out of the hotel room without waking the toddler. Also, I might be busy trying to get my wife's grandparents set up for assistance since they just got rescued by the "Cajun Navy" in Beaumont, TX after 12 hours being of being flooded.

Finally got our 14th to join at 4:38pm Pacific after I spent all day at work refreshing the league hoping eleanor60 would join.

We are good to go. Prizes same as last year. Will post updated payments and payout info after I get dinner and do some chores around here.

Sincere apologies for my tardiness all.
that_pope nailed it - I gave an email I use less like the idiot I am!

Not to worry, I'm free money unless I fluke it

Yeah, you really need Hopkins to have a huge bounce back year to stand a chance along with Dez playing 14+ games. Seems like a big parlay.

I'll offer you a trade.
