RE: Kirk/FourTwoOh & replacing him ... Guys, Consult the message I just put up here: http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=01;a ction=display;num=1121648358. We'll get this 10th spot filled with no problem, I am sure. Since this is a special "invitation (from Steg)-only" league, let me have first whack at this. Even though we ended up having to recruit a few guys two years ago, the original idea behind this league was for it to primarily act as a "thank you" from me to those of you who helped me get this place off the ground and secondarily for some personal acquaintances and friends of mine. I have a few dudes who fall into one or both of those categories that I want to give a shot to join first. I've already begun contacting dudes. I see you guys are looking at a mid-August draft date. I leave for Hawaii on August 10th. If I don't have anybody by August 9th, I'll let you guys know quickly first and (prepare to) cast a wide net. I am VERY confident that we'll have no problem finding one dude for the GBRFL2. Over and Out, Steg

Okay, I may have a great guy to bring in to take FourTwoOh's team over, but he needs to know what you guys are looking at as far as dates for the draft. I am assuming, as has been discussed, you guys plan to, as best as possible, meet on-line and hammer it out in one shot or at least over a weekend or something like that. I would advise making a Friday evening start time, in the hopes of having it done that night, but with the fall-back plan of, no matter what, getting it done by Sunday night. And, as far as administration goes, begin ANY time. Don't worry about working around me and my schedule, i.e. my move to Hawaii this week. If you all can get this thing going THIS FRIDAY, August 12th, GO FOR IT! If you then make the cut date this Tuesday, I can get them posted on the "Rosters" page during all the internet time I'll have in airport terminals during our roundabout trip to Hawaii on Wednesday. SO, LET'S GET TO DISCUSSIN'...

| Beeeg, as per my message above, from the administrative angle, it would be great if you guys could get your cuts in by 11:59 on Tuesday, so you'll have an updated "Rosters" page at the league site to consult on Thursday.

| And, the rest of the weekend...??? Again, the idea is in the least just to get it going, with it in mind to complete it by Sunday night. ... I understand you guys are trying to be brief with your replies, BUT I am starting to wonder whether or not you're reading my message above with due diligence and care. Doing so will expedite the process.

| This is what I thought we were planning for, since no one had objected to it. But, in any event, I'll try to make time whenever. I have plans Friday night, but I'll try to get a proxy list in (so much for trades). I also have plans for most of the day Saturday the 13th and then I start a new job on the 15th (so I probably won't be online at all and will not have much accessibility by phone initially). I'll try to be accomodating though.
