Hey guys, make sure you check the message boards in our league site and provide some feedback regarding rule changes.

For others who have not responded yet, let us know if either of these days -- Aug 26-28 -- works with your schedule. I'd like to secure a draft slot asap.

My preference would be the 28th, but either day will work for me.

Unfortunately the 28th after work is my dynasty league live draft, so only the 27th works for me.

Okay ... I will lock up the 27th in Yahoo then. I haven't heard of anyone else having any conflicts. I'll email the new date to all the teams.

Hey training camps have opened ... Fantasy draft has been set - Thurs, Aug 27th 8;30 pm EST.

Just a few rule changes to pass or not pass. (See Yahoo message board.)

How about them wines ... anyone else ready to announce their contributions?

Hey Sticky2, since you started the thread, would you mind updating your initial post with the wines that the teams are offering?

I would not mind, but has everyone posted them? Even on the yahoo league page I don't know if everyone posted, but I'll check.

Edit: Seems there is a time limit to editing now, I can't do it.

I'm still trying to decide what I will be opening for the draft. Does anyone else have something in mind as their draft night beverage? Looking forward to it again gentlemen.

I always end up picking in a miserable spot. I really hope I don't end up in the middle of the group.
