Poetry was a lot better than some of the books I had to read. I even used Cliff Notes on "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." How lazy was I, you ask? That lazy. Wallace Stevens is college-level stuff. I guarantee no average high school kid is going to get that sheeeeit without rolling a few doobies. I was going to go to college, but I went with a 5 year cocaine addiction instead. The jury is still out on whether or not this was a good plan. I don't know much about poetry, but I'm pretty sure I met the Emperor of Ice Cream once in the Hunters Point District of San Francisco at 3:30 am on a Tuesday.

ok Sox bashers, I'll tell you this once, Lunatic the problem with your excell spreadsheet, I'm pretty sure without looking at it, is that your formula isn't inlcuding the correct cells when you're adding a new player, thus the equation is off and putting in a random zero which changes the final product. Try and rest the equation including all the cells, there should be an option under format that allows you to even use blank cells as N/A...
Go SOX!!!

How the hell did I get the league's highest payroll? That must be some sort of Excel malfunction, too. Wow, lol can't believe I didn't with 65 million gone after round 1

Each team has their own page, and all players are listed in a single column. The formula was set up for the entire column of salaries. It worked perfectly up until the 10th round or so, but the last couple of days it isn't calculating automatically. I made a new spreadsheet for something else a couple days ago, and it's doing it on that one, too.

The issue isn't that final product is coming out wrong, it's that the final product isn't changing when a new salary is added. It's just fucking with me, I'm sure.

James is less than an hour from being skipped as well.
This is fucking painful.

This goes to show you how confident I am in Eddie Guardado. Haha. Though getting both of them for $1.55 million is pretty tight.
Now all we have left is seeing whether Benoit is a one-year wonder or a diamond in the rough. My hopes are for the latter but my gut instinct thinks the former is more likely.

I was looking at both Benoit and Mike Gonzalez this round. I'm pretty sure I told you guys not to pick the players I wanted anymore.

Yeah sure you will.
On another note, should I have been alarmed that I felt tightness in my chest and weakness in my left arm last night at work?

I've been waiting all day to make this pick.
Lets go Pervin.
We should do like the NFL does after the first few rounds and drop the time. 2 hours per pick. If you really don't want to get skipped you'll pay attention.

I woudn't mind cutting the alloted pick time down a bit. Its not as bad to get skipped now as it was during the first few rounds. Cutting down the time should get everyone to check in more frequently and make this even more active + I have a ton of free time at the moment lol
