BLUE 1,026 Posted July 4, 2011 (edited) This would be something similar to the NFL drafts we have, thread-style, where we make our picks in a thread and then I would post matchups for the masses to vote on. I did this once in the past and it was pretty fun. *Edit* - looks like the masses want this to be for active players only, and that's fine with me.... So far: BLUE Sarge SteVo Mathias Tridentdawgpound BayAreaBomber Edited July 4, 2011 by BLUE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteVo+ 3,702 Posted July 4, 2011 (edited) So wait, is this an all-time thing or just active players like the annual fantasy NFL draft we have? Edited July 4, 2011 by SteVo CLARIFICATION Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLUE 1,026 Posted July 4, 2011 So wait, is this an all-time thing or just active players like the annual fantasy NFL draft we have? Whatever you guys want....I was thinking any player drafted between 1956 and now (what we did in the one I did)....but I'm open for something different, if that's what you guys want....

BLUE 1,026 Posted July 5, 2011 Alright, this is the draft order, generated by http://www.firststepconsulting.com/UFF/RandomStepFinal.asp: http://www.firststepconsulting.com/UFF/RandomStepFinal.asp We'll be using a snake-style format for the draft, though....

BradyFan81 404 Posted July 5, 2011 Too late for me to get in on this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sarge+ 3,436 Posted July 5, 2011 I don't think so. You could probably draft 7th. We don't really need an even number since we aren't really doing a league or anything, just for fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteVo+ 3,702 Posted July 5, 2011 Yeah, I say add BradyFan to the draft order somehow. MOAR PEOPLE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick 791 Posted July 5, 2011 I'm not the most knowledgeable about baseball, but I know a decent amount about the players and if you'd like to make it an even 8 I will gladly join. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteVo+ 3,702 Posted July 5, 2011 Awesome, we have eight. Now if Mathias can stop slowing down the draft we'll be going places. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLUE 1,026 Posted July 5, 2011 I can add the both of you as 7th and 8th.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
