So that the actual rounds aren't littered with crapola.
All questions, comments and cynical potshots should go here. That is all.

Hey Len, how about you make a fucking list.

Here's some random crap. I have calculated the average amount of time everyone has spent making their picks. I have limited the time taken to time only when the clock is running (thus if someone made a pick at 3:30am and then Spin picked at 5:30am, he is credited as spending 0 minutes making a pick). Also every keeper has been credited as a pick taking 0 minutes. Here are the results, through round 19, in minutes on clock per pick:
Russ - 45.26 Spin - 45.42 Felder - 54.63 Chris - 89.32 Billster - 96.82 John - 105.21 Brad - 127.53 Bob - 141.95 Peck - 161.00 Lester - 232.26 Guzz - 280.53 Len - 318.53
To no surprise, Spin and I are the fastest (we have no lives lol). Len took as many minutes in round 19 (1911) than nearly half the league has spent on the clock total.

What's funy is that I still see that he picked Yunel Escobar in the 19th, when he was nabbed in the 12th

Wait.. so what you're saying is that after the bitching that Peck did about picks not going fast enough, he's on the bottom half of the list. SHOCKING!!!

i'm not around a computer before 1 PM CST unless work mandates that I am, so the only time I've taken a while is when several picks go down early in the AM and I'm not contacted while on the clock
and there was the 4th round where I slept in till 4 PM and when I woke up I'd been skipped
after spin and russ, find me somebody who's made more picks within an hour of being on the clock than me...i gooned a couple b/c I was nowhere near a phone or a computer on relatively short notice, but this draft isn't taking a month because I'm not picking fast enough

In my defense, I've started to make the picks while teaching America's youth...now that's dedication.

You know, speaking of random crap... Len Diesel would be a nice pick up for the BEER League. The dude would be in the playoffs his first year out.
Plus, think of all the great PR pieces he'd put up.

He'd do more PR pieces than actually manage his team...lol

Ichiro Suzuki is 0-for-21 in spring training. What does this mean?
.400 is seriously in jeopardy this season.

We can replace Beau with Len. Len would always talk shit, annoy Burr...we need another badguy in BEER since Guzz is a pussy.
