Yahoo and my computer didn't want to cooperate over the last two hours... Result? Missed the pro-league draft! Arrrgghhhh... I get to fight for last place again, this year...

While it would serve you right for not auto-listing your players (just in case), BK has scrubbed the draft.

*My* draft went through reasonably well, so I'm just as upset as you are about events requiring a re-draft. I may or may not get Manning, Flacco, Gronkowski and a bunch of good defensive picks that I put in order.

I won't be sticking around if the next one gets deleted post de facto.

What was the reason for dumping the draft results? Several owners hit by the same technical difficulties that Nashvillen suffered?

We have our live draft for my work league tomorrow at lunch. 3 leagues here, with 12 players in each, for a company with only 80 employees. Great participation rate! The company is also buying everyone pizza for lunch while we draft. I have a good job.

Ahhh.... Page 928. The Porsche 928 was my dream car for many, many years as a youngster. Now, however, I've become hopelessly addicted to convertibles and they never made a 928 convertible model. When it's time to start building out the Porsche collection after my Powerball winnings come in, there will be a nice black 928 S4 with my name on it.

Don't you already have a Porsche?

Yes, Leo. We have a Cayenne and a 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet. We traded in our Boxster S for the Carrera. I have no complaints.

Yes. Well, that's the official story. I think everyone is conspiring against me since I got Manning (Peyton) and Gronkowski though.

No worries there, Brother! There is a 2 week all expenses paid trip to the Turks for us all, complete with wifi access and new laptops to get some killer PBEM AE turns done. Rum fueled, of course.

It would seem that the Internet has been taken over by people dumping buckets of iced water on themselves.

All in the name of a charity that most of them have never heard of before. The wonders of peer pressure and wanting to be accepted/noticed.

I wasn't the only one!

"Dear Yahoo Fantasy Football Users,

Yesterday evening we encountered an issue with a portion of our Fantasy Football drafts and one of those affected was yours.

We're so sorry for the inconvenience. To fix your league, the Commissioner needs to use the reset draft tool and reschedule your draft date and time. Please note, the new draft time must be at least two hours out from your original draft.

If you need assistance, please contact customer care

Thanks and again we apologize,"

Nope. It bit everyone that wanted to try a live draft. Everyone *did* draft based upon their selections or the default autodraft list, however. But I guess that the commish has elected to delete those drafts before most people even knew what they got. Oh well, I guess the commish gets to make that call. All I'm saying is that my draft went OK (I even got a grade on it from Yahoo after it was deleted

), but I'm willing (once) to go through it again for the sake of those that weren't ready for the technical issues Yahoo threw at 'em.

In the long run, nashvillen, it really doesn't matter that much. You're still goin' down.
