Fun fact: JJ Hardy becomes the first player drafted #1 overall twice.

If he changes his name to JJJ Hardy, he should be drafted #1 next season as well.

I'm still hoping that Ripken changes his mind and picks somebody else at 7:59am tomorrow.

I don't care who he picks. There's a lot of great talent available this year, and I'm just ready for this show to get on the road. Our draft is the highlight of my fantasy season.

One pick in the first 5 hours. This is exciting.

Blame me for Nellie's waiting to pick 1.03, we were talking deal and it fell through (basically he was waiting for a response from me for five hours when I didn't see it).

Yoink and I were talking trade for the past few hours. Sorry for the delay. It's like a real draft and everything (you sit around and wait for things to happen, and then nothing happens, so you wait some more).

Blame me for the first X hours. I had a tentative deal for 1.02 that couldn't get done, and just decided to use it before I essentially lost my spot.

man, Bobby Ayala drops a Rat King and Juggs drops a Jon Bender? We're really upping our 80's quotient this year. Maybe I'll draft George Brett to fill 3B.

On a different note, while searching for pictures of what I thought was the one and only Rat King, I discovered the horrifying real rat king: Rat King (Folklore) - Wikipedia

Man, did my brothers and I have a field day with that guy's name...

King of Peanut Butter, for swooping in on Chris Carter and showing a stroke of genius, I officially hate you. I really, really, really like that guy to explode in 2014. But because you took him before I could, I hope he explodes as in DIES. Haha...

It was between him, Calhoun, & Davis. I was trying to decide which one was the least likely to make it back around to me in round 3. I guess the answer was none, lol. I'll be watching all year if I made the right choice there.

I'll be on vacation from tonight until Wednesday, so text me if I'm on the clock. Someone will have to keep the draft board updated too. Thanks!

I guess I should stop trying to trade up in the draft so I can get A-Rod as my cost-effective franchise cornerstone.

Starting this Monday (1/13), I'll be away from my computer quite a bit over the next week. Please text when it's my turn, and I'll try to get picks in, but I may miss a pick here and there.

Bobby Parnell is $1.7mil. Mack, can you log on an update the draft thread?

Yeah, I'll do it later tonight. I forgot what year it was.

Colin is currently on a plane and won't be able to pick for a couple hours, probably 4 or so. I tried to text him to see who he wanted but the flight attendant threatened to take away his phone. Damn stupid FAA policies.

Just made my pick at 6.10. I'm getting on a plane in about 2 hours and won't be back online until tonight, so my apologies if the draft comes to a screeching halt at pick 6.15.

Sorry for holding things up. I was at a location without internet or phone service the past two days and thought I didn't have any picks until round 8. I would have told somebody if I remembered I had traded for a later pick in the round. Sorry again.

Not a lot of commentary going on -- what happened to this league? Us making fun of each other for picks was part of the fun for me, if I remember years past. With that said, I see rounds 12 and 13 are chock full of sleepers and high-risk/high-reward players. This is where it gets to be a lot of fun.

Wait, what day is it? The Super Bowl was how many days ago? I guess I need to call into work.
