OK, I am in. Doug, the league is the first league you will see in the list that has a draft time of 9pm ET. You don't actually see the league number until after joining. David Sumich 33 Megabites Huntington Harbour, CA Forum Administrator

I hate to be a pain in the ba**s, but that's exactly one half hour into the Pats-Raiders game (i.e. opening night). To make matters worse, I've got a Red Sox game on Wed night. Anyway we can make it Tues night? Regards, Doug L. 1986 33 Bertram FBC Queen Elizabeth Marblehead, MA

Also, I've got a couple of friends I could probably get to join. What's the minimum number we need? Regards, Doug L. 1986 33 Bertram FBC Queen Elizabeth Marblehead, MA

the problem is when they only give you certain dates and times that are available. if we keep it a private league we can do an extended draft which means the draft happens as long as you want until the last pick is made with no time limit.meaning i could start the draft tonight and we could finish it in 2 weeks. You make your picks when ever it is your turn and you are near a computer. We need 6 guys minimum.so if you have guys that want to play ,that would be fine. I think the extended draft is good but we will want to start it pretty soon. Tim Stamm Photo Finish 1981 33' Bertram FBC

I guess we'd have to do the extended draft then. I am traveling home on Thursday and won't be home until 12am est. David Sumich 33 Megabites Huntington Harbour, CA Forum Administrator

the extended draft option is not available so it looks like we are back to picking a date ...the time that works best for both coasts seems to be 9:30pm. so Doug check your social callendar and give me 3 or 4 options .it looks like the evening drafts are only available after the 7th. The stats will be retroactive to include any nfl games that we miss. Tim Stamm Photo Finish 1981 33' Bertram FBC

I'll be on the boat starting Friday morning (Sept 2nd) and won't be back until Monday the 5th. So, Monday night is wide open as is Tuesday night. Wednesday I have a Sox game and the Pats start on their way to their next Championship on Thursday night. Also, one of the guys whom I'm trying to get to join will be at the Sox game on Thurs night. How about some night this week? I just spoke with one of buddies and he's definately in. The only problem is that he's leaving for Florida on Friday morning. I'm still waiting to hear back from my other friend. What's the cost going to be? Regards, Doug L. 1986 33 Bertram FBC Queen Elizabeth Marblehead, MA
