    Auction date

    My March this year has been brutal. My apologies to all.

    Right now it looks like the best date for me to hold the auction would be March 25th.

    Can people make that date? 9pm?

    Good for me.

    Everything but the 24th and April 4th works for me.

    Sure; why not. I'd rather it be on a Friday or Saturday night; but I suppose weekends aren't always the best for others.

    Re: Auction date

    25th is fine with me, but the time is brutal. 09.00 PM is 03.00 AM over here, and it's the middle of the week, I have to be at work on Thursday morning. Can't we make it a bit earlier, say, 7 PM?

    I get home from work at 9:10 on the 25th (my 8:04 train gets me through the door at home at exactly 9:10).

    Re: Auction date

    I'm free basically any week night the rest of March. Might be busy one night next week, but should be good other than that. Weekends are a little sketchy for me. Could do a Sunday night, but already have another draft the 29th.

    Re: Auction date

    NYDCYankee wants to join (see the signup thread) but he immediately left the country on a trip, and wont be back until the 19th, so we cant do anything until he can look at his roster, declare keepers, etc...

    Re: Auction date

    Hey E; what about a poll where everyone chooses the dates they can't make (leaving out the dates you can't make as we need our commish at the draft) then whatever day has the fewest objections we take. If I have to bot I will. No biggie.

    I don't know that there are any good dates for me the rest of the month.
    I will pass on commissioner powers during the auction to another owner.

    The draft is next week. By the way, I gave you some incorrect info. You can drop players in the middle of contracts and take a $1 or $2 penalty. I think it depends on how many years he is signed to...so actually maybe a $3 or $4 penalty is also possible.

    Oh, I thought it was a quickie. So I guess there is no going out after the draft...
