NBA.com League - 12th Man Fantasy Basketball Association (12 Team League)
EDIT:
League closed. For some reason NBA.com decided to change the draft time to next Monday. I have no idea what happened. Also, we were still 3 short thanks to errors when people tried to join.
Very frustrated about the whole thing. Thanks for everyones interest. I was really looking forward to a smaller, more in depth league. NBA.com has been a huge pain in the ass. (Constant errors, the draft change, a handful of people telling me that they can't join due to error messages, etc.)
Hopefully the other league goes smoothly. I can't say anything good about NBA.com at this point.
Sorry everyone. Maybe next year I'll put together a smaller Yahoo.com league.

Can you set it back even earlier? Some of us like to tailgate

I'm in, and I'd definitely agree to an earlier start time due to tailgating.

Bummer. Traffic with the NASCAR race is gonna be yucky.
How long do we think this draft will last?

So no time is spent on their picks.
Realistically we're probably looking at an hour to an hour and a half. So hopefully we'll be wrapped up around 11:00- 11:15. I'm going to the game too. |
I guess I can work with that. Besides, we have lots of home games coming up at which to tailgate.

We have 8 right now. Are we trying to get 4 more or should we go with 8?

Had to close the league. Please see the first posty, which I've edited, to see why. Sorry everyone. Was really looking forward to it.
