2008 Draft Date... LIVE AGAIN!?!?

Fellas, I know that with the draft it is the later, the better. HOWEVER, the single circumstance that, I think, trumps/should trump that is a STRONG possibility this year, that is GETTING TOGETHER for the draft!!! I will be visiting mom in good old N.J. from Tuesday, August 5th to Thursday, August 21st. That gives us two weekends, the weekend of the 9th/10th and the 16th/17th. I would also be available during the week, and I'm thinkin' that we may be big enough boys at this point to, perhaps, be able to pull it off during the week. In any event, PLEASE, guys, Markie and Danny included, take a page out of old Steggie's book and try to think OUTSIDE THE BOX here... That's the only way to live (the one) life (you got). As the saying goes, "Just do it!" All the obstacles are really just apparent. I know I look forward to seeing all yous,... seeing how you've grown,... professionally and with all your budding families... Making and maintaining those connections is what life is all about. Anyway, let's commence the discussion, and see what date we can come up with. As far as I am concerned, I am available either of those aforementioned weekends...
By the way, any help you all who visit this thread in the early going can give me getting the word out that it's here and the discussion about this year's draft date has begun would be VERY helpful and MUCH appreciated.

I thought with the draft it is usually the later, the better. Anyway, I am good to go either of those weekends. I could swing a weekday too I suppose.

Oh, but of course, that's what I meant. By "earlier" I meant "later". Wasn't that obvious?  ...  ...  But, anyway, yes, you are correct, D. My post above has been duly edited so as to avoid potential future confusion. Thanks for catching that.
I am also pleased to see how accommodatingly the proposed dates for the draft are falling into place... thus far. Thanks, guys!  I really look forward to seeing yous!

Fellas, since those of you who have been kind enough to get on this have expressed little in the way of conflicts with the dates proposed, I'm just going to at this point declare the 2008 GBRFL Summer Meeting and Draft date and time to be Sunday, August 17th starting at 1:00 (EST) in the afternoon.
Now that that is anticipatively settled, all we have to do is decide on a place. Frank has yet to post, so I don't know what he is thinking. I know DB has offered in the past. Trout...??? We could do the restaurant thing again. Let's try to get some...  in to Frank and Trout so as to hasten this along. I really could use some help with making those phone calls as Gino and I are really revving up into high gear with exactly one month left in Hawaii. If anyone does speak to any of the people who haven't posted here yet, try to pin them down with some pointed questions and then please post their responses here (just in case they do not do so themselves). Thanks, fellas!

Has anyone called Frank or Trout? I don't want to call if everyone else has. They are probably on some sort of gay romantic get-a-way together.  Feder is probably there too. 
Anyway, if Frank is not up for hosting, I suggest a restaurant/sportsbar. While I have offered my place in the past, and I would again, I don't think it would be ideal. First of all, I am about 1.5 hours north of Frank, which would not be good for y'all southerners. Second, while my place a few years back in Hoboken was pretty sweet and near a bunch of places to go out, I now live in the suburbs and don't have the nice pool area that Frank has. Any thoughts?

I also left a message for Trout but haven't heard back.

Thanks, D. I spoke with Trout last night... He's good to go for the 17th of August at Frank's! Looks like we,... you, Francis, are going to have a full house, brother...  ...  ...
