MNO Fantasy Football 3rd annual

[JD]

I'll be there.

[JohnWester]

heck, i'd show up just for the free food.

[JeffyO45]

Hey fellas.  Just don't have the time to spend on the forums anymore.  I am in.  How many teams do we have?

I sent a PM to this enghx003 guy who showed interest.  Everyone hit up your buddies so we can get 10 players.

[Mayfly]

heck, i'd show up just for the free food.

See ya there

[enghx003]

I talked to my financial backer and I'm in.  August 30th at Buffalo Wild Wings in Roseville at what time?

How many people are we looking for?  Do we want them from MNO?

[JeffyO45]

enghx003 - I believe you make 8 so we would need at least 2 more players.  If you know people who might want to play invite them.  We will not discriminate against people who are not from MNO.  I had been the commissioner of this league for the first 2 years.  I don't want to step on Ryan's (Hedrocks) toes as he is now commissioner but he has invited 2 friends to play that I believe aren't members of MNO.  As far as a time for the draft I don't believe one has been agreed on.  Can we say 7pm to allow people to get there?  I am open to other times but earlier would get tougher for me.

[Ryan]

I don't care if they are from here or not and I don't care if you step on my toes either.  We still need at least 2 more teams and maybe 4 if there is enough interest.  I agree that 7pm is a good time to start especially with the new traffic concerns getting to Roseville.

[Spinach]

7PM August 30th at Roseville Buffalo Wild Wings sounds good to me too. I agree we should allow anyone who can make the draft in person to play also.

[enghx003]

I have a buddy who is going to play

[Mayfly]

Switch to yahoo and eliminate transaction fees and I will play Oh...and reduce the number of roster spots

[Ryan]

So according to my calculations we still need at least one more player.

[JeffyO45]

I believe you're right Ryan.

[Spinach]

Here is the list that I have.... Am I missing anyone?

Spinach (confirmed for 07-08)
Ryan (Hedrocks) (confirmed for 07-08)
Scott Pugh (confirmed for 07-08)
Jeffy045 (confirmed)
Leech Angler (confirmed for 07-08)
enghx003 (confirmed)
Friend of enghx003 (confirmed)

By my count we need 3 more players.

[Ryan]

I have two other guys that are playing.

[Spinach]

Yep... I forgot about your 2 buddies.

Just so you all know, I will be leaving for Dallas on Saturday the 18th and coming back home on Monday the 27th of August. Just letting you all know so you don't think I have disappeared before the draft, i will be at the draft for sure!

I should be able to get online while I am gone, i just have to reinstall my wireless card again before I leave, last week when I was in Phoenix, my wireless connection was not working.

Lets get at least 1 more player and a total of 12 if possible.

BFG, how about you? Or Mayfly?

[Ryan]

I forgot to mention the bad news.  The BWW in Roseville is already full for football drafts.  Is there another one that I should try or do we just have it there anyway without the free food.

[Spinach]

There is one in Woodbury and another in Maplewood.

The free food would be nice, it would save us all a few bucks that we will allready be spending. I guess if they are full, we just sacrifice without the free food.

[JeffyO45]

Majors does some kind of fantasy draft special.  I don't think it's $100 in food but the deal they have is better than nothing.  There is one not too far from Har Mar a little north of Hwy 36 on Snelling by Northwestern College.  Or there is also one in Golden Valley off 394.

[Ryan]

That sounds like a pretty decent deal also.

8 DAYS till draft day BUMP...  Going on my 3rd scouting trip this weekend...  ::) ::drunks::

[enghx003]

Scouting trip.....what a homer.  Easy money!

BTW, have we decide yet where it will be for sure?

[Ryan]

I think we might as well just have it in Roseville without the free food.  Maybe they will give us drink specials again.  We also still need one more player.

[JD]

So is it Roseville for sure?  And it's this Thursday correct?

[Ryan]

Lets just say Roseville for sure now so there is no confusion.  I may have a tenth player.  He is interested, but I'm not sure if he can make the draft or not.

[ScottPugh]

I will make it easy...  I will drop out of the league.  We don't have daycare Thursday / Friday and the wife has some after work things to take care of. 

[Ryan]

You can't drop out, we need you.

[ScottPugh]

You can't drop out, we need you.

I'm out...  That puts your league @ 8.  Maybe I will rejoin next year.  I will miss the wings and brew!!!!

How does that make it easy??

[ScottPugh]

How does that make it easy??

Instead of having 9 and looking for one more.   ???
