I'm at the office on LA at 5pm on a Friday, when all of the other members of the league are drinking at a league member's house at 8 pm on the East Coast.

Boo.

Anyways, I pick 12th out of 14th, so this is going to be AWESOME.

T-minus 20 min.

Thinking I have to get a QB/RB or an RB/QB in the first and second rounds. No chance at top flight talent at either, and past the first two or three WR, there's a solid 8 - 10 of them I can get a good number one out of before it comes back around.

Needless to say, I wish I had left earlier. Alas, could not.

T-minus 13 min.

Just yelled at the league - in the chat client - that their selection of draft timing sucked.

Stuck at the office for two more hours on a Friday. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

This might be the most one-poster thread in the history of ILX. Seriously doubt that anyone is gonna read this in real time.

I just offered the entire league $1 million dollars if they leave Ray Rice on the board until #13.

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Friday, 26 August 2011 23:55 (fourteen years ago)

As 9 out of the 14 members of the league are from Baltimore, that ain't happenin'.

I'm reading.

Wish I had planned ahead on this one. Gonna be a long couple of hours.

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Friday, 26 August 2011 23:57 (fourteen years ago)

I promise it will get more interesting as the picks begin . . . in 3 minutes.

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Friday, 26 August 2011 23:58 (fourteen years ago)

Apparently, there are technical difficulties. Surprise, surprise, surprise!!!!!

Ugh. I hate doing live drafts remotely. My friends need to move to CA.

using the ESPN site?

boxall, Saturday, 27 August 2011 00:13 (fourteen years ago)

I drafted 13th out of 14th. I got Chris Johnson and Darren McFadden with my first two picks.

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Saturday, 27 August 2011 00:26 (fourteen years ago)

Nope. NFL.com

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Saturday, 27 August 2011 00:26 (fourteen years ago)

Josh Freeman and Miles Austin for my QB and first WR

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Saturday, 27 August 2011 00:44 (fourteen years ago)

Not bad so far. Time to focus on receiving depth.

Yup. My thoughts exactly. Kind of took a wing on Freeman, but I wanted to make it interesting. Also, I hate Matt Ryan for what the Falcons did to the Ravens last year.

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Saturday, 27 August 2011 00:48 (fourteen years ago)

This draft is a total shitshow. Technical difficulties abound.

I got Steve Johnson and Mike Thomas.

Best available from here on out.

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Saturday, 27 August 2011 01:16 (fourteen years ago)

Killing me!

taking SO long!

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Saturday, 27 August 2011 01:39 (fourteen years ago)

Longer it goes more it works to yr advantage, 3 hours behind, they'll get tired and forgetful earlier.

boxall, Saturday, 27 August 2011 01:40 (fourteen years ago)

Ravens D, which was kind of scoop considering 2/3 of the league is from Baltimore, and Johnny Knox.

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Saturday, 27 August 2011 01:54 (fourteen years ago)

I tell you - if Johnson and McFadden pan out, and Freeman continues to play well, I could end up killing this year.

Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Saturday, 27 August 2011 01:55 (fourteen years ago)

This is taking too damn long.
