Auto draft? Eeeeeew. 
Am I the only one that pronounces hyperbole "Hyper-bowl" instead of "hy-per-bo-le"?

3 spots full. 13 left. Not everyone is free on holiday (or any day) to do live draft.

lol, 2 for me... actually the auto-draft made it more appealing because I don't have to justify it to my wife.

Things is I do it so I can have different teams. Of the 13 teams I have I have 10 different starting QBs.

that would drive me batty. i usually do 2 teams and hope to get around the same draft picks so I largely have the same team (drafting off the same cheatsheet).
otherwise, what skill does it show to just have a bunch of different players and have a few good teams and a few okay teams based on it?

Well you can't always get the same people. Guys like Julio Jones, Richardson, and a few others that are lower I try to maintain from team to team. But I like to try different things out, Top QB/2nd tier RB vs Top RB/2nd tier QB and the such. That and I like doing both Auction and Snake. But ESPiN gives you 10 free teams, so I eventually just used them all up, and then I found out I had an old NFL.com league that was restarted, and my bro wanted to do one there, and then this one... I think I'm done now, just ganna stick to mock drafting... But mock drafting SUCKS when you draft a really good team

Like IMO this one, I literally just drafted.
1 RB A. Foster 2 QB E. Manning 3 WR J. Jones 4 WR D. Bryant 5 WR P. Harvin 6 TE J. Finley 7 RB B. Tate (Would consider Tate for the Flex) 8 QB J. Cutler 9 RB D. Brown (Starter over Tate, I'm big on this guy) 10 TE J. Tamme 11 WR J. Blackmon 12 RB M. G¾odson 13 WR R. Randle 14 TE M. Bennett 15 DEF Seahawks 16 K R. Gould
The best part about this mock, was that with the help of this list and the fact that I knew I'd have the 1st pick (Chose it for this mock)
I was able to literally plan my entire draft pick by pick, and only missed out on 3 players that I wanted (WR Marshall, QB, Rivers, RB Wilson) but the people I replaced them with (WR Bryant, QB Cutler, RB Goodson) there isn't THAT much of a drop off...
That was fun.

That is actually the plan, but right now we have 8 and "need" 8 more. Draft is still going to be on Labor Day b/c we have enough.

9 teams, 7 to go for a full 16 team, or 1 more to have even number and run draft on Labor Day.

hopefully the giants can keep RGIII under 30 fantasy points this week! You're going down, 'Cob! (I hope!)

Ooof. I foolishly left Harvin as a starter. Injury report didn't prompt me he was out. Riding Murray the rest of the way. Here's hoping RG3 returns to form and the Eagles keep Bryce Brown as their starter. I'll get you next time if you can make it to the championship against me

for the life of me, i can't tell which of the 5 likely 8-6 teams makes the playoffs. I can only tell it's not "Garden of Weeden" or "D Town Destroyers." Code:
overcomers destroyers GOW RTW Aviators overcomers X L L L W destroyers W X L W W GOW W W X W W RTW W L L X L Aviators L L L W X
