IDP Rookie cap hit and bonus structure

[Nittany Dodgers]

But I have few more issues I want to argue about first...

[Philadelphia Freedom]

My vote is currently one of the ones against it.

I will swing it over to wrap things up.

Much obliged!! Now it is on to determining the order...

Yahoo... :thumbsup

Valencia has voted, and he's voted to keep the rooks in the auction with the Vets.

Mutts and Insects haven't voted, and you've bribed Keepers to switch. I will not change my vote on this. I totally HATE the concept of what you guys are shoving down our throats here, and you can bet I'll bitch about it for YEARS to come ;).

All that being said, I'm likely to lose on this with the Kerry loving liberals flip flopping their votes. In light of that, how about some CREATIVE (that's for you Brian) thinking on the draft order. Using a random generator to decide the order of selection of the DRAFT slots. Still use either Brian's or Matt's overall 1-12 12-1 12-1 whatever orderering, but allows teams to pick their draft slot based on an order of picking generated randomly. Kind of a mini-draft of the draft slots.

Again, despite my creative idea above, I'll continue being on the record against what you're shoving mercilessly down my throat! :furious

I had thought of that as well, but I thought it was too convoluted. If it will appease some on the other side of the fence, I have no problem with it. It is still random, and it only increases each teams opportunity to get into a position they like. I have no problems with it. I also have no problem with calling the idea creative, since I agree with it.

Mike, it looks like we are going to finish the week 1-1 on things we strongly disagree on.

You sure it's not 1-0-1... I think the Barlow situation is more of a draw.

By the way, I thought the Kerry flip flop line would generate a few chuckles and comments.... guess not!

I like the idea of picking draft slots also.

The beauty of democracy ;-)

I am in a dynasty league that had a random drawing, and then allowed the owners in that drawn order to pick the position they wanted to draft in. That worked well, and I would agree to that.

I could go for that...of course, if people are truly legalistic, then I get the 12th pick...

Legalistic people suck!! GB, pop-punkseters MxPx...

I am cool with picking an order and then letting people pick their pick. In this case Keepers gets my number if it is higher than his.

[The Immortal Ramirez]

so, who's going to run the random generator?

[The Immortal Ramirez]

Mike (Preds), should we eliminate this poll then and put a new one?
Draft: 1-12, 12-1, 12-1, 12-1, etc OR 1-12, 12-1, 12-1, 1-12, 12-1, etc?

[Philadelphia Freedom]

Draft: 1-12, 12-1, 12-1, 12-1, etc OR 1-12, 12-1, 12-1, 1-12, 12-1

I don't care but if we need to vote I will go with the majority on this one. Also, at some point we need to have names so we can put the draft list together (either that or it will just default to our screen name).

Don't ask me.. not my show here... I'm just gonna go with the flow and try to swim back upstream on another outlet ;).

I have a fantasy site that will randomly assign orders. Everybody gets emailed at the same time.

All I need is an email address for everyone.

FYI... I still am AGAINST this concept.... I'll remind you f'ers of that every few posts!

[The Immortal Ramirez]

K. Just don't pee on that outlet!

Creating new thread for discussion on draft....

I would also just recommend to put the owner names in the generator...it make take a while for some people to get team names...

How is Barlow a draw? Unless something changes, things are status quo, meaning you get to keep circumventing the rules.

Just be happy your random order for pick selection met a receptive audience, so stop complaining.

Maybe you should do a better job writing FLAWED rules ;)

Just to make sure no accusations are later made... here's a link to the randomizer sight.

It's great for determining fantasy draft orders. http://www.profantasysports.com/DraftRandomizer.htm

For the record: I am AGAINST Mike posting anymore messages stating how AGAINST this proposal he is...

I'll second that.

I'd be wary of baring your ass around some of the "switch hitters" around here.
