All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

How about 5 picks at $5 million and then they can start with Nasty Night's picks on Friday?
Mikey...don't be overly concerned...there were only 3 picks at the $5mil range...it might not be fair to give them 4 picks at that range...
Unless somebody has a major problem we will go with a new owner on Friday and that new owner will have 3 $5mil picks and 1 $4mil pick...they MUST make all 4 picks.
Please state any objections below.

I don't get it. You can cut all of your high price players if you want to at the end of the year. What's the difference?
which is an excellent point...that is why I am willing to let them have the 4 picks and just get this moving...any owner can practically dump all his high priced talent and start new next year...

So, you want to give them 5 picks to make up for 7 lost rounds, and make them pay the prices of the first few rounds. Makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, and I'd be suprised if you found anyone who'd want to take over the team.
I also fail to see how it's "unfair" to the other teams to give the guy 5 picks to catch up. He's already missed out on Big name players. If the guy was around to make his picks, I guarantee half the teams would've had to drafted differently.
All I'm saying is, telling someone that they get 8th round talent for first round price is stupid, and nobody that I'd want to compete against would do it, it would be suicide from the first step.
You obvious misread what I wrote. I'm agreeing with you that they shouldn't pay 1st round money on a guy. Either 1 of 2 things I would like to see happen. I would like for them to start in round 8 and not have any picks previous (as if they were to skip them) or do the idea that Eb put up. Either 1 is fine.

Okay, i'm fine with that one. But can't we find a way to start them tomorrow before the talent diludes anymore?
They should also get to punch the owner who dropped out in the face.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
Eb.... don't think you should be too concerned about the guy having kids or something... born in 1987 so he's 17-18 years old. if he had kids they would not be in school. the draft has been going on for week and nothing from him... if he returns upset you could give him the choice of taking the team back withthe players already selected for him...

Right now, this is the game plan I think we will go by...I will think about it. If we do this should the picks be made before round 7?
