8 of the 14 owners were at the co-commissioners house out here, the other 6, who are all on the east coast were on Skype.
The first issue that was addressed was seeding of Keepers (I posted about this on the bb's), and after a ruling from the commissioner (the co-commissioners brother on the east coast) my reading of the ruling was correct. Which meant that almost all of the keepers that had previously been entered into the system had been entered incorrectly. And in trying to correct this all keepers were accidently deleted from the system, and needed to be re-entered.
Then the next issue hit. The worst two teams each year play in the Toilet Bowl, and the winner of that game wins the right to the first pick (as per league rules)(and first position in the draft order)Except this year, with two expansion teams, those teams were given the first and second positions in the draft order (also per league rules). Well the guy who should have had the first pick threatened to quit right there if he didn't keep his draft position. After about 30 minutes of arguing over this a compromise was reached and he would get the first pick of the draft, and then fall into the third draft position each round thereafter...
So the draft finally starts and he picks RGIII. Then he flips everyone off and signs out of Skype (but continues drafting).
Luckily, Luck still fell to me at 1.5, so I was still happy.
Two of the three new owners have never done FF before. One of them drafted a kicker in the second round at 1.4 (Akers), and a back-up QB in the 4th (Alex Smith....HAHAHA, no, seriously)
Good times, good times.
