Sorry for the delay. My phone was lost last night, but now is found. Like I said in the organizing thread, I'm camping through tomorrow. Pick coming up any minute...
Close enough. Was at a friend's house drinking and watching the Olympics. Tough choice between Hazard and Mata. I took the gamble in hopes that the goals will make the point difference. Just waiting on kopite to make to start the 2nd round and I'll keep you fellas moving along.
I'll be gone for an hour or so. I'll check in right away when I'm back in case things are moving quickly. My draft board only has the 10 Premier League players I know anyway so I'll be winging it from here on out anyway.
Thanks, Mark Is Tarv picking for ChrisSuttonsSlippers or did he pass on some proxy picks to someone else. If he's picking, he's on deck.
Pick made, Tarv texted. Budget blown. Ugh, will I ever learn? All these years and I still blow my load early every year and struggle for cheap picks at the end.
Back from the beach (yes, a campground with a beach) so I'm good for the night. I hope to make my next pair picks before I get too many Rolling Rocks in me
Alright am off for dinner with in-laws - clearly I cant interrupt that for a draft so I'll be back around 7:30pm EST
Sorry for delay. Making pick now. I too had dinner with my grandmother, my sons great grandmother. Drank about 3/4 of a bottle of,wine so this should be interesting,
Also on 3rd glass of wine - am back to make pick. No truth to rumor that wine will make me take French player! Give me 10-15 to catch up and selection will be made
I am really glad you picked-up Fernando Torres...I was *this* close to picking him. haha, watch him score 20 goals now....yeesh. C'mon Valencia, prove your worth! Sir Alex loves proper wingers and you be one!
I look at it as win-win - he's starting as the undisputed striker. Either he produces, or else I've created nice cap space to make necessary adjustments. Learned long ago the draft is as much about positioning as it is about selecting best players! And I'll repeat - this draft went striker happy FAR faster than I had thought it would.
