Do you prefer:
Friday night (9/1)
Saturday Night (9/2)
Sunday Night (9/3)
Monday Night (9/4)

of that weekend

I can't do it that Friday night. Any of the other nights would work for me.

Are we full or do we need to recruit a couple teams to fill it out?

I'm moving this thread to the main board until we fill the last spots and set a draft date.

Everyone: we are looking for two people to join our fantasy football league to replace two players who aren't returning. Note that we will need to two new players; if only one person shows interest we will not be able to add that person. We need two. PM me and twisted if you are interested.

Keeper Rules:
-1 keeper from your final roster last year
-keeper replaces the draft pick equivalent to how they were obtained (example if you keep a player you drafted in the 5th round, that is your 5th round draft pick this year) [free agents will put in as last round]
-in the past I've always done you can't keep the same player 2 years in a row, I am open to changing that

A ringing endorsement! :D But I know what you mean. I'm in three leagues, but usually get asked to join anywhere between one and five each new season.

Realize I didn't respond to this before - I have a strong preference for the 1st, 2nd or 4th. The 3rd is the night of my only in-person draft. If need be though, I can just rank players, if the majority preference is for the 3rd. (An in-person draft might be fun in the future, by the way, although I feel a bit cheap proposing it, since it can't be at my tiny two-bedroom house, haha.)

The 4th at 8 PM would be an awesome time for a draft for me. I usually watch WWE at that time and can easily multitask the draft.

I'm out Fri. 9/1.

Could do 9/2 or 9/3 if necessary, but strong preference for Mon 9/4, later the better.

Not to confuse things further, but I'd even be down to draft Wed 8/30 or Thu 8/31 if that worked for everyone. Better for me than the Sat or Sun.

Monday works good for me. Sunday I have another draft, and Saturday, I have an event that night with my girlfriend, so I'd probably be autodrafting those nights. So, Friday would be my second choice.

I have unexpected visitors coming next Monday now so I may end up autodrafting after all. Saturday would be my best or maybe Sunday but looks like Monday PM is the concensus first choice so I'll just deal with it.
