I can enter your pick for you and then we won't have to revert back (unless Moulds was who you wanted). I do have to leave in a couple of minutes though. |

Sorry, I waited as long as I could. I gotta go. I'll be back in about 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Hopefully one of the other commishes comes in before then and can enter your pick for you Ralph.

I'm glad the counter is in place. I enjoy the draft process but waiting kills me when I have a list of people ready to sign up.... and others don't take the time to look at the draft. Thanks for moving us on....
As for sneaky picks.... it reminds me of the actual draft day when teams are only bringing in certain players and then pick someone else... I guess that's the way the big boys play... Misinformation puts people off track.... Good luck with Norwood... He has a chance to be special...

Either Eric or Ken. My guess is Eric...but I'm not sure why either. What am I, chopped liver?  But it wasn't meRalph, if post your correction pick here and you'll lock him in and we'll change it ASAP. |

felt bad...?
im not asking for an apology, all i was doing was stating facts
i told you i had my eye on 2 RBs with my next pick, which at the time was only a few picks away, i told you the names and in response you told me in no uncertain terms that you wouldnt select gore, as you felt it would be a wasted pick
it just so happened that you had 2 picks directly in front of me in the draft, and surprise surprise you took, not one, but both of the RBs that i had told you about
i never once complained or even mentioned it, cause like i said, it was a cheap lesson learned
so last season, KC and i were talking on AIM and we were discussing our choices for 4.01/4.02...we started talking about past picks and i told him about the gore incident...after that he procedes to tell me that you knew each other IRL and that he was actually talking to you at the same time, and that you had the pick right before his run of late 3rds to 'protect' his investment of the 4.01 and was asking me who i had targetted @4.02...so he could 'pass it on and make sure you didnt select him'...i gave him 2 names...he then asks me which one i would want to most out of those 2...i told him chad jackson and WOW...you chose chad jackson
so thank you for protecting my guy, jerious norwood, but please dont continue on this path as not really understanding...
lessons come in all shapes and forms, and in the grand scheme of things this was a cheap one...but seeing as you wanted to gloat about your uber RB crew, i figured i would shed a little light on the subject for all those out there that needed a good read bitter much?  |

Ok, not sure why the Jags were skipped, but I reverted the draft back to his pick. I pre-drafted Eric Moulds for the Giants right after the Jags turn, but he was the only player I could pre-draft because I don't know what his whole list was.
Therefore I hope the Jags do not pick Moulds, otherwise we may have another draft snag.

Your post was responded to immediately, so this could easily have been avoided. Gee, wonder why August is the most stressful month of the year for me? |

You are more entertaining than a stress factor, Scott.
Tried to look into it, but can find no good reason the Jags pick was skipped. My best bet was that the Cardinals pick was already in the process of being skipped by the computer, and then Tony went in and manually clicked "Skip current pick". At this time the computer, already having processed the Cards skipped pick, skipped the next current pick which was the Jaguars pick.
This is the only solution I can figure as I am sure no other commissioner skipped the pick on purpose. Let the computer run its course from now on, no clicking the "Skip current pick" button.
Not saying this is your fault Tony, the 15 minute update thing is kinda strange, and I wouldn't have known this myself unless I read it on the site.

I wholeheartedly apologize guys. I was just trying to keep things moving along and my impatience cost us.
