Keyshawn Johnson 1.01
Jerry Rice 2.14
Steve Largent 3.14

Ugly/Big Mike, you missed the point. Gore to McGahee was an example of the "perceived" loss, hell I may have taken "Bush" at #4 as my first WR (yes, I know he is not a WR). It is also not about how I rank draft picks vs. how you rank picks (yes I know that you are better at it). Its not about how you value players vs. how I value players. Its not about losing the #4 (I know it was not mine to begin with). Its about the process. Read 4Ds post. Also this comes to some of us that were part of WCOFF last year. And before you say it I'll say it for you(this is different) but for some it feels the same. I really do want to move on and I assume others do as well, your shoulder does not make me feel any better. This just should not have happened at this level.

Ps, I think that you may have kept the wallet LOL.

Glenn, is that a "coalition of the willing"?

Ok Ugly I just had a chance to read one of your last posts about my intent. So you had to make this personal. Not only did you miss the point but you are a sorry mind reader unless of course your posts are just your way of snuggling up to mgt. By definition whinning is a weak continuous self pitying series of complaints, I do not think that my post meets the definition. You can check my WCOFF message board history that would indicate that I do not have enough posts to fit your characterization.
I am surprised that an organization of this size does not have a way to blast email the entire group 24 hours a day in 2007.
You will no longer surprise me.

Good luck with you draft and no whinning if your team goes up in flames. Damm I wish you were in my league.

Mike, I empathize with your posts and 4D's posts. It is frustrating and very unfortunate that this occurred. No participant should attack the posting of your frustrations in the way this occurred. Maybe an average owner spent 5 hours prepping for the draft with the pick they were given. All wasted time. Multiply it by 200 changed picks and that is 1000 wasted man-hours. And it only took them 3 hours from 2 people to run it manually. Greg apologized, re-ran it, and they have tried to make it right, which was nice and appreciated by many. Given that these national contests pay out 75% or so, I think you have a right to be upset and expect nothing less than perfection in the first-time implementation of 3RR and KDS, which is supposed to be NFFC's big competitive advantage. When draft picks are announced with less than 1 week to the event, I think that customers expect them to be correct. There is not much time nor room for error.

I guess that I went through who would be available prior to turning in my kds and was prepared for almost any of the top half of my choices. I spent several hours preparing for the 8th spot now I'm drafting 10th. But I do have a confession to make - I'm so ate up with this stuff it's almost like I'm glad that I get to do some more!

Is it Friday yet?
