FCFS after waivers have been processed is one reason I hate AntSports and will be leaving after this season.

I haven't read this entire thread but my problem with it is that no everyone has 24 hour access to the site. I'm one of those that have been blocked at work and feel that there is a slight disadvantage to those that do. It also takes away from managing your 1000 bidding dollars.

Those are just my thoughts.

this is why i agre with the idea. you go through blind bidding then after the deadline you have 2 days to pick up 1st come 1st serve with the players who were dropped during the bidding period protected having to clear waivers (so they would be untouchable to deter collusion) the advantages:

1. you can gamble that a player you want nobody else would want and try aND grab him after bidding period and save money.

2. more importaNT reason to allow this is if you get late news that a player is out and you have no back up for him you can go ahead and get someone eligible to play. it happens all the time.. the first come first serve would end at 12:30pm or 1:oopm on Sunday.

It's not bush league, alot of leagues have it and Snake is entitled to his or "her" opinion but i think it's a good idea.

Texas, one major issue that always comes up with certain rule-change proposals has to do with site access. Any rule that shifts a significant advantage to those that are always online is very unlikely to get implemented in this contest. If you look at the demographics of this league it is an older and wealthier group than the espns, cbs's, ants, etc. And very few people in this contest want to shift that type of advantage to the always-on crowd, as it should be for a higher-level contest of skill.

- 4D, it's amazing how on the boards you never hesitate to throw in a comment. you do it on wcoff and you don't even know me. amazing how you were so peep quiet at both drafts and didn't say a word or come up to me. i guess it's easier to provoke people on the boards so you don't have to face them. it's understandable. even the infamous Dave terp came up to me which i respect. your just a )(&(*ER%$. ever listen to the country music song "online". listen to it. Thats you. lol.

And I drive an old Hyundai
I still live with my mom and dad
I'm 5 foot 3 and overweight
I'm a scifi fanatic
A mild asthmatic
And I've never been to second base
But there's whole ‘nother me
That you need to see
Go checkout MySpace

'Cause online I'm out in Hollywood
I'm 6 foot 5 and I look damn good
I drive a Maserati
I'm a black-belt in karate
And I love a good glass of wine
It turns girls on that I’m mysterious
I tell them I don't want nothing serious
'Cause even on a slow day
I could have a three way
Chat with two women at one time
I’m so much cooler online
So much cooler online

When I get home I kiss my mom
And she fixes me a snack
And I head down to my basement bedroom
And fire up my Mac
In real life the only time I’ve ever even been to L.A
Is when I got the chance with the marching band
To play tuba in the Rose Parade

Online I live in Malibu
I pose for Calvin Klein, I've been in GQ
I'm single and I'm rich
And I've got a set of six pack abs that would blow your mind
It turns girls on that I’m mysterious
I tell them I don't want nothing serious
'Cause even on a slow day
I could have a three way
Chat with two women at one time
I’m so much cooler online
So much cooler online

When you got my kind of stats
It’s hard to get a date
Let alone a real girlfriend
But I grow another foot and I lose a bunch of weight
Every time I login

Online
I’m out in Hollywood
I’m 6 foot 5 and I look damn good
Even on a slow day
I could have a three way
Chat with two women at one time
I’m so much cooler online
Yeah, I’m cooler online
I’m so much cooler online
Yeah, I’m cooler online

Yeah, I’m cooler online

Yeah, I’ll see ya online

Glenn, did you know the song before you posted the lyrics? I don't think there is a country music station in New York.

As to peep quiet at the draft, you obviously didn't look very hard as I was very easy to find. As for needing your respect, well, let's just say it's not high on my list of things I need. That would be right up there with country music.

Oh, lol
