2016 Draft Weekend is in the books!

And what a great time it was!  As always, big thanks to Dave Steines and his brother for hooking us up in the elegant digs that we have grown accustomed to.  More thanks to Randy for capturing some of the fun while my phone was on the fritz (Fritz Peterson?). 
 
We welcomed two new league members to the draft, PJ, who was virtual while in Alabama (with a banjo on his knee) yet still won the bingo balls and the coveted #1 overall pick.  Doug Ebbole was welcomed back into the league after a far too-long absence.  Doug's look of confusion during the madness that is the Division Rolloffs may have indicated second thoughts on his part, but looks like he recovered and is ready to go!  We welcome the Mount Pleasant Trainwrecks and the Lake Erie Commodores to the league!
 
Good eats were had at Pizzeria Uno and the IHOP, lots of heated rule debates, lots of laughs in Dave's private suite, even some time in the hot tub after those kids finally left.  More music than usual this year during the draft, from Scott's timeless 'Generic Hispanic Instrumental' for every Latin player drafted, to the classic Fats Domino 'Going to Kansas City', to the new go to song for avian-related surnames, Family Guy's Bird is the Word clip! 
 
 
 
The man who deservedly calls himself
 "The Champion"! Congratulations Mr. Mall-O-Matics!
From last year's champion to this year's
champ, bottoms up!






Steve Willnus seems to like a player left on the board...
or does he see a <gulp> GOSE?!

 
 
The official league file, with whatever rotations and lineups I have received to date, is now updated and ready to be downloaded.  A link to the 2016 Draft Results is right below that. 
 
Just one thing left to say now, and that is PLAY BALL!!!!
