Greg,

I think we did drink in Las Vegas on Sunday afternoon! Hey wait, I think I also paid!
With or without an additional draft on Sunday, we will have a few beverages. If it is later, we will go for a fancier dinner than the ESPN Zone!

I am happy at $650. The only negative in offering the higher dollar leagues is that they will siphon off some of the top notch competitors such as Lumpy's Losers.

Well, maybe the dilution in the competitive field at $650 isn't so bad after all. Maybe Maguire will go as well. ;) Yup, that is possible, but then again we run $650 and $1250 leagues in baseball and the competition remains tough throughout.

As for Brian, he MUST come back to Las Vegas and I'm FORCING him to buy me drinks this year after paying him over $3,000 from this football season! :D He's a good guy.

For the record, $650 is my max(obviously with the main event being the exception). I hope, for years to come, the $650 leagues remain. It is good to have higher stakes leagues if there is a call for it, but hopefully the $650 leagues will be a given every year.

Greg,

Sign me up for both the $1250 Auction and the $1250 Draft Champions Leagues on Friday.

And if I mention adding a Sunday afternoon draft, again, will you think it has been three different people suggesting it or just me for the third time?

Thanks,
Mark
Follow Me I heard you the first time on the Sunday afternoon gig, but I need to remind you and Lumpy about one thing: I WANT TO DRINK ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON!!! :D

Six days of events for me in Las Vegas (counting the Fantasy Sports Trade Conference) tires an old man out. But I guess if the demand is there, I'll always consider a Sunday afternoon higher stakes event and have my Corona's while you guys do that. Keep the chatter going and let me know when you're close to a full league on Sunday afternoon/evening. Then I'll promote it like crazy!
[/QUOTE]OK.

I'll bring the Corona for Greg, who wants to add a Sunday afternoon draft? Auction? Draft Champions? High Stakes? I'm up for anything.

Fill the list and then Greg can make it happen. He can do anything.

I'm in for a higher-stakes Draft Champions league in Chicago, if one is offered.
