    I'm still up for this. Not going to be able to make an in-person draft this week, though. Online during an evening (preferably later than 7 pm cst) this week would work best.

    I'm good with Tuesday or Wednesday, and can be there in person. I'm good with any location.

    And like Derek said, thanks for doing this Mike!

    ESPN.com must have took a really long smoke break. Can't get the last invite to our tenth team.

    Is it bad to have my qb playing against my defense? It seems a little strange, who do I cheer for?

    Have you been drinking... Your QB plays for the Giants... Your D-fense is the Giants... How can your QB play against his own D-fense????

    Lol, it made for an entertaining game though, at least for me since I was laughing the whole time. I was really hoping for a team on team brawl to break out after that fumble or for one of the refs to get punched by a couch.

    Dude were you watching our score during the game? First you were up 1 pt, then we were tied, then I was winning... and then I lost :(

    The TE was no where to be found after the 1st quarter. I think if Payton would have had a better 2nd half I could have pulled though... I mean 1pt... last week he was solid. Oh well. It kept my attention.

    I really thought I had a good chance to win... and then nothing. :(

    Also the whole QB thing for you.... After the 1st quarter on Sunday I looked at your QB and thought I was going to smoke your team, you were single digits.... then he comes back for 30+ pts. There were some big ups and downs this week for sure. My star RB with 3pts didn't help anything. Either way, it was a good match up this week.
