Hey Lance, come to Vegas and hang! Grab a friend and do the Favreau/Vaughn midnight drive. Vegas Baby!

~Lance Wouldn't want it any other way, Lance! ;)

You aren't going to be there, are you Lance???
[/QUOTE]I wish.

I almost pulled the trigger on the "phone in" option...but work has been too slow to triple dip this year. (worst workload for summer in the 10 years I have doing what I do...not even close)

I'd love to be at that Fisher Party and meet all the East Coast NFFC Syndicate that are gradually migrating West more and more each season.

Hopefully next year.

~Lance
[/QUOTE]Lance, you know you're always welcome with us. An open invitation is there for the Fisher Party!! :D I'm sure that would go over with the wife: "Honey, I'm not drafting this weekend I'm just going for the Fisher Party! Yes, the Fisher Party!" :D

Hopefully we'll see you for March Madness and the NFBC. Too bad we were third on your football dance card, but I certainly understand with the first weekend of the NFL betting season being the next weekend. Can't blame you there. I called about the phone option, but didn't want to push ya.

See ya in March. And yes, this is a LOADED league.

I respect that Greg.

You know me...I love Vegas...but can only handle so much...and if you held the NFFC during the first week...I'd be there all day.

As far as baseball...I need to let this depressing season get farther away...but I'd bet I'll be there come March.

You have a great group of guys and gals...and eventually I'll buy them all drinks in Vegas!

This seriously had to be one of the toughest drafts I've ever been in. Seriously. At one point I even broke down calling everyone "a bunch of asses."

BillyWaz, I hate you forever for the Ray Rice incident.

Ezzel - NOt a big fan of you stealing Holt from me.

KJDuke - wish I had the chance to talk to you more. Nice team!

KofQ - good times hanging out with you Glenn and having some fun!

Lance - I feel like you belong in the NFFC. It's very much your style, plus alcoholic beverages all day long AT THE DRAFT. C'mon now!

Todd - sick draft out of the 1-spot bud. Nice to see someone really truly making the most fun out of the draft. Totally sorry didn't get a chance to talk more in the SportsBook, I was completely PASSED OUT!

Weber - Nice "computer selection" in the first round! ha!

Good luck to all, it was a great draft. -z-

Special thanks to everyone for leaving me no choice but to take Steve Slaton in the 6th round (2 or 3 rds ahead of every other Vegas draft). I suppose that's what happens when a couple of teams take 4 RBs with their first 5/6 picks. ;)

Great Draft!
Weber, what was up with the "late start"?
KJ enjoyed the competition again.
Zman, our first shot at the best in WCOFF and looking forward to it!.
Glenn and Bill- first shot at the best in NFFC and you are two class acts who we really enjoyed getting a chance to know!
Lumpy's we are looking forward to the chance of knocking down that winning pct a little.
And to the other class acts we are playing against best of luck!
Truly tough draft and we hope to remain competitive throughout....

This looks like a very tight race. The entire back-end of the draft, Waz, KOQ, Lumpy, Hard Heads have solid teams. Z-Man and Weber are right there, rookie Todd in the #1 slot did a nice job and a couple others are very close. Too bad we can't have an 8-team playoff. This should be the odss-on favorite for top-scoring league. Good luck all.

Quite honestly, i had a client being shipped out to New Orleans in the reserves, he called me at last second and i had to draft a POA for him so he could close on a house..

Hey, i ended up missing first round.. i know., however i got Joesph Addai in the 7th pick. I would have made the same pick no question.. i assumed i would land Moss there or Barber. Addai, i couldn't pass up on.

Im happy with my squaad, need some things to fall in line, but there is no clear cut favorite in this league..

The ship has sunk so far so early I see very little light at the end of the tunnel. We will persevere as always, but this is embarrassing to say the least! Thank god for the NBC Main and the $1300 DC!
