Title: Draft Order
Post by BarnabyWilde on Aug 15^th, 2004, 11:40am

Hey Steg,

Have you made a decision on when you will be releasing the draft order for this year?

I would think Thursday at the latest. Otherwise the draft may be delayed with people trying to work out trades.

Didn't we do a vote on this and it ended up in a tie?

My understanding is that we won't know until the day of the draft, although I guess its still open as to what time on the day of the draft.

It just seems like a waste of time to get everyone on line and ready to go and then we have to wait to see the order and then wait some more to see if people want to trade picks.

IMO it will expediate the draft if we know prior to the draft what the order will be.

Who will be doing the actual selection of the order?

I had a phone conversation with Steg before his trip to the HOF. He said the order would be set sometime this week. I was just wondering when he was going to do it. He'll pick the order of the first 5 drafters via his lottery.

Since we are only 2 days out, maybe today would be a good day to post it. ;D

If it is easier, why don't we just go in reverse order of finish, then there is no need to put Steg through the ordeal of selecting the draft order. [smiley=idontknow.gif]

With just hours to go (until I post the order), the impatience is just... stifling. I guess its nice to see the enthusiasm. Other manifestations might be cooler.

Can't wait to see what you have in store for us Mr. Steg.

My post was only a suggestion to make it easier on you since you seem to have alot if irons in the fire right now.

Sorry Steg... I was just trying to illustrate my enthusiastic anticipation and throw a little good-natured (per the chosen smiley) ribbing in there as well.
