BCB Fantasy Football: Draft is one week away, PAGING OLYKNOWS, and WE NEED 1 MORE IF HE DOESN'T SHOW

I am too excited for this upcoming draft.  Reason being is because I spent last weekend in the joyous confines that is the Milwaukee Metro Area, and spent this past week pretty much on my deathbed with a cold that would kill lesser men.  BUT the cold is gone now with the exception of some good lung butter, and it's time to make sure we're ready for the phenomenal event that is BCB Fantasy Football.  

With this being said, one of our brave souls that volunteered has yet to throw his team up on the board.  Olyknows, I know you are around, you threw up a comment yesterday.  I have sent you 3 invites to the email your brother gave me.  If this isn't the right email, it's still your fault since I was chasing emails at least 3 weeks ago.  You have until Tuesday to sign up, or Wednesday, you will be replaced.  

Now for those of you interested to get in on the ridiculousness that is BCB Fantasy Football, I have one conditional slot open if Oly doesn't show.  If you want in, the draft will be next Saturday for the BCB Swansons league at 1:00 CST.  Send me your email at hyattff2003 AT yahoo DOT com.  We want you in.  We NEED you in.  If you think you have what it takes to rip your commissioner mercilessly as he struggles with a sick pregnant wife and a mischievious 16 month old, then bring it.  This goes true for you Ted Simmons Speed Camp (probably the best BCB handle ever) and you too MolitorFan.

Star-divide

Below are the leagues with draft times and members.  IF YOU CANNOT MAKE YOUR DRAFT, PRE-RANK YOUR PLAYERS.  It's probably a good idea to pre-rank your players anyway just so you don't get stuck with crap in case your computer has issues during the draft.  And participate in a couple mocks so you have an idea of who's going where so you aren't stuck with ELI the pony whisperer in the 5th.   

The BCB Swansons will be drafting Saturday at 1:00 CST.  This league consists of myself, MichaelM, MrLeam, presumably Olyknows (but possible replacement), BrewTownBoozer, TwoShoesMagooze, nullacct, Jeo, Officer Jim Lahey, TAPmoney, Zorakathura, and Doubleb440.  

The BCB Kriegers will be drafting Saturday at 3:30 CST.  This league consists of myself, pjpaulus, tepo6688, NoahJ, Masondolo, Rendezvous, tcyoung, RyanSmith, jarlbartar, Fiesta, drzden, and icecreamman.

The BCB Archers will be drafting Sunday at 2:30 CST.  This league consists of myself, cheezconqueso, -JP-, theBrouhaha, trippingandy, Dikembe Meiztombo, LosinCatmansLove, Saltire, schmita91, TexWestern, and Yar Nivek (see what I did there?), and golfallday.

I look forward to making fun of your picks like I make fun of 49ers fans who wistfully remember the days of Shaun Hill behind center.

Oh, well, I mean, I'm mostly kidding.

I think I’m just bitter about him—and everyone else—doing better than me in fantasy baseball.

Hey Hyatt

Oly can’t do it. His computer fried and right now he has no way of being able to keep up with a fantasy league. He said he was sorry, but to go ahead and find a replacement player if you can.

I'll be without phone or internet access on Saturday...

… but there’s not doubt in my mind the computer will do better than my live draft today where 5 of my starters are all on the same bye week.

Thanks for the invite

but I will be in Vegas this weekend for a bachelor party and the opening weekend of college football. I would join and pre rank but that never works out well, and I would somehow end up with a team of crappy Bears and Queens.

10.5 games ahead of the Uptight Citizens Brigade

I may possibly be interested in the open slot

(TWHS)

But I won’t be able to live draft on Saturday. Is there still an opening?
