AT, hate to do this to you buddy but Cora played for Boston last year.

The draft site does link to the players card so you can see which team they played for.

Screw this then!

All illegable players in a draft should either be excluded before a draft or should be available to be drafted.

Excluded players should not be allowed to be drafted, and then have other draftable players have to be dropped.

I don't have the time or desire to be searching for illegable players. Skip my turn for the rest of the draft. e-mail me when the draft is over and I'll pick up scrubs for the autodraft.

This league is a joke.

I've listed all my players for drops. Please drop any players that are illegable. I dont care any more at this point what happens.

Sorry you feel that way AT.

Cora drop has been approved.

Can you put in proxies so the draft doesn't need to hold up at your spot? At minimum can you draft a stadium during the draft?

[b:49d156b780]AT[/b:49d156b780]:

There are a lot of frustrations in a live draft, for [b:49d156b780]all[/b:49d156b780] of us. Stoney and Tom took the time to exclude many players for our group. I've never participated in a live draft where [i:49d156b780]any[/i:49d156b780] players have been excluded, so I appreciate the time they took to do this for the rest of us.

After investing five days in this, it's not right to hurt the rest of the league because you're frustrated. We're ALL frustrated in one way or another. But it's [i:49d156b780]your[/i:49d156b780] responsibility to know the players you are selecting. You have a solid core of players and you should finish out what was started.

If we can close this thing out tonite and load tomorrow we can all move on.

It's your pick at this time, please grab the next best player for your team.

[b:49d156b780]J[/b:49d156b780]

Why bother - this league is a joke. Half my picks will be found to be illegal anyways I am sure.

This draft should have been halted after the first or 2nd illegal pick was made. Instead now spicki aparantly has an illegal 6th round pick and we're in the 13th round ... there is no way he is going to get any value for that player replacement.

Either you exclude all illegal players or you dont exclude any. Leaving half of the AL in only confuses matters. And allowing owners to draft improperly excldued players that other owners may not have even known were excluded is not fair either. Zambrano should have been off-limits for the rest of the draft.

People are always yelling pick faster pick faster pick faster - but it works both ways. If innocent mistakes are made the draft should be halted so that these mistakes are corrected. You dont just keep rushing on blindly allowing other mistakes to accumulate.

I'll load my team & honour my commitment, but I am not going to continue to partake in a draft that has become a joke.
