It wasn't 'failed', it was sabotaged by Max.

All part of his plan to get us live drafting.

I didn't even know the offline draft had started - I hadn't been on dot net for a while.

hibsmax at yahoo dot com is my contact info. We should probably share that information so that communication can be done via e-mail so that ruiners like me can't................ruin things. :)

Can o do this on my phone? Or do I have to steal Mrs bollahs laptop?

I think you can probably do this using the NFL fantasy app on your phone. I would NOT trust a mobile browser.

I think you can use the app, but I would steal the laptop, it'll be much easier.

Does anyone know when the draft client becomes live for our draft?

Not sure but the web site still has that banner up, the one telling me what to do to prepare.

Sounds like it. Congratulations.

**HibsMax** · 20-08-2016 08:02 PM

I know I'm late to the party but why are the winners leading the draft? That is the exact opposite of the way it works in real life. Was there a vote that I missed?

Because the order is snaked, I don't know that picking first is any better than picking 14th. I will get (theoretically) the best player on the board and the 28th best player whereas whoever picks last will get the 14th and 15th best players. In theory, everyone should be pretty equal.

Agreed. It's not like we're picking at the top of every round. The snake draft is pretty fair and if anything probably favours those picking later in the first round.

Max - I've had a few, and you know I love you, but seriously, quit complaining!!!

**Haymaker** · 20-08-2016 08:34 PM

I'm ready.

I thought it was a question rather than a complaint?

I understand how a snake draft works. I'll gladly swap my 12th pick for the 3rd pick, since it makes next to no difference. :)

EDIT: I only "complain" since this league is run like no other league I've ever played in. Good job it's free.

***Sylar*** · 20-08-2016 08:42 PM

Draft centre is open, good to go (whilst watching the Mets @ Giants game).

Also on the wine 'bollah - sophisticated draft drinking

I'm just about to get started, but with a less civilised Heady Topper (IPA). I'll catch up.

***Sylar*** · 20-08-2016 08:47 PM

I'm moving over to the draft chat now, so I'm going to close the .net tab

I've seen that advertised. Is it any good? I just got done watching Friday Night Lights. I liked it some but......there's something about it that made me feel like I was watching a kids show at times. Can't put my finger on it.

It's really good, it's a documentary on a Div III college who takes the dregs from the top schools to try and turn their life around.

**lugz** · 20-08-2016 09:54 PM

So when can I pick a kicker?

**hibsbollah** · 20-08-2016 10:33 PM

That didn't go well for me. But it reflects well on all of us that Kapernick wasn't drafted, I reckon

offline is my bag.

**SmithyHibee** · 20-08-2016 10:43 PM

Missed the draft unfortunately due to travel but actually pretty pleased with what I've ended up with! Looking forward to getting underway now

I concur. Just in and gutted to have missed out. Glad your alive Max and you'll always carry a special place in my heart because of the cup final (don't think I've ever cuddled a grown man more) but it's firmly down to you why I've missed out
