    I'd rather do the online draft, as I've had scheduling issues in the past with live drafts.

    In the past it has just been for fun, and I'd like to keep it that way, as I'm not allowed to bet on any major league sports (NCAA rules from work).

    I'd also suggest an ESPN league, as I think their interface is nicer then the yahoo one.

    I've been in a few before, and ESPN is definitely easy to use. Having a live draft is definitely the best, but totally understandable with schedules. Keep those tunes goin, Nate!

    Yeah just for fun, I've spent too much on other leagues already LOL

    On Line live draft is cool with me, I just hate doing pre-set list drafts.

    I'm up for whatever but, for an informal league like this I think its just easier to do the online draft.

    I'd say 22nd if you want to do one of those dates. The 29th is the Ojibwe rally, and at least a couple of us will not be anywhere near a computer.

    Either day should work for me but I agree with Nate that maybe a weekday during the evening may be a good time to do it. -Email sent:)

    A wednesday or thursday evening draft works best for me also. The draft needs to happen before the 22nd of august because I will be out of town with no internet access.

    Of those days I like the 19th the most. the 18th is kinda hard as I get up for work(19th)at 2 am. the 12th is fine but seems too early for a ff draft.
