I thought friends don't let friends drink and draft?

Sounds awesome Greg, thanks for setting this up. It's crazy that we don't already have 14 guys for this league and a half dozen more on the waiting list. Can't wait, it's gonna be a blast.
KJ...typically I would love to play in this league, but I plan on drinking before, during, and after the Giants-Cowboys game...hardly conditions conducive to drafting.

Perfect conditions, however, to hand money to my buddies playing poker...
We need you Paul! I can guarantee you won't be the only one drinking ... the only part where you actually have to think will be the first half hour or so, from then on all you need to be able to do is see your draft sheet or know someone that can. :)

For those worried about being too foggy to draft properly, we could add a rule that after every Patriot, Packer or Saint is drafted, everyone at the table does a shot. We'll all be lit and out of our minds by the end of Round 3. :)

I'm going to invite these guys, they look like they can handle a drink while drafting.

Someone once told Johnny Cash he shouldn't drink and play at the same time .....

Aren't drinking and drafting synonymous? I wouldn't ever consider drafting without drinking, it's simply not American.

The Ultimate draft is at 7 PM in Vegas. I'll set the over under at about 8 beers for that draft. (Bud Light please, Thanks Greg :D )

The local leagues are a drink fest for high stakes as well. What has become of this group? I realize that everyone thinks the best players in fantasy participate here, but no drinking and drafting? Please.....

George is now confirmed! Lowy will make 12 if he can get to LV on time. Still would like to add two more to make this a 14-team league, 100% of the next two team's entries goes to the prize pool - so we all do better with 14.
