I am in and ready.

I nominate second. Hmmmm, I wonder who I will throw out there?

Lucky 13 Yeah Jim, we're all in the same boat on this one. ESPN's official launch is July 1st, but they were nice enough to set up this league for us so that we can get this done for our magazine deadline. We might be beta testers tomorrow, but I think we have 14 smart enough folks to figure this out on the fly. Just be ready for the early guys because bargains could come before most of us figure out the timing of the SOLD! feature.

We'll all be ready and have some fun with this. Having finished auction values will be good for the magazine and we'll move this league over to the NFFC site and have some fun with it during the year. Thanks all for volunteering to do this tomorrow night.

I'll log in first thing tomorrow and be ready to go. I'm laying in the weeds this year and holding onto my money for bargains. No LT2 for $73 this year!!

I need to get back to that dominating stage you all saw two years ago.

Be ready because I'm ready to rumble this year. Plus I saw most of your sleeper picks for the magazine and will trump you on each one of those!!!

Should be a fun night.

Greg, I noticed the league set-up on ESPN is for roster of 20. Should this be 19 since it is 14 teams (to match the live events)? Maybe it doesn't matter, but thought I'd ask. Thanks. Jim Wiseheart
