I thought that might get your attention.

OK, here's what we would like to do if possible. We are wondering if there will be one person in each league who will be keeping track of the entire draft on an Excel spreadsheet. If so, we would ask them to e-mail STATS and CC Greg and myself either on Saturday or Sunday. That will save us some time in terms of entering every roster in every league with the goal of enabling you guys to see your rosters online sooner than our current timetable. No promises in terms of a time, but that's what we're hoping for. To do this, however, we need your help.

We won't know who's in what league until Monday, but if you know right now you're going to be tracking your draft on a spreadsheet and you're interested in helping us out, we're asking that you contact Greg or myself and let us know. Once we have the leagues picked we'll know who can help us and we'll let everyone know. Then at the draft, Greg, Rocky or I will meet with the people who have volunteered just to finalize everything. What we'll need is pretty basic (team name/full player name position and proper draft order).

OK, so here's the plan: Contact Greg or myself either by phone (715 445-4612 ext. 284 for Greg; ext. 653 for me) or by e-mail ([email protected] or [email protected]) and let us know if you're interested. If you are, plan on e-mailing the spreadsheets to STATS either Saturday or Sunday. STATS' e-mail address is [email protected]. Also, CC both myself and Greg on those e-mails so we have a record of which leagues have been sent in.

This offer is for all of our events, including the auctions, draft masters and Gordon's satellite tournament. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide here.

I could likely do it, but I would need a power outlet.

No power outlets will be available. Anyone who wants to use a laptop will have to do so using a battery.

I can do it for the main event and Draft Masters if needed. I have 5 hours of battery life on my laptop.

Thanks JSF, since you just talked to Greg he has you marked down.

"Hey, how did that JSF guy manage to stockpile LT, Holmes, Harrison and Holt on the SAME team?"

I assume a staff member will check the spreadsheet against the board before it goes into Stats

Yes, we'll doublecheck everything. No need to worry there.

I'm not going to track the draft on a computer DURING the draft, but I'll volunteer to help with data entry and filling out a league immediately following a draft if that helps. If someone can read the names to me I can fill out an excel chart and probably we can get it done in 20 minutes. I require beer to run my laptop, though

Dave, you'll have to talk to Greg about that. Not sure what the odds are that Greg will want a beer after the NFFC is over though ...
