Ohh? Did he make a lot of home runs last year?

I forgot all about this being a Holiday weekend and that people might be away or busy Sunday night.
If you want to change the draft day and or time ,I'm open to suggestions.
Maybe Monday or Tuesday night or keep it the same?It just has to be before next Wednesday's first game with NYG/Cowboys.
If your not online during the draft it will autodraft the highest rated player available anyways. That's probably the best bet for TE owning biologist anyways!

Ouch...and from a fellow Texan. Your lavender leather conditioner must have soaked through your seat and gone straight to your brain.
I'm good with the date as is or any revised date. I do plan to be in a bar at "draft" time to ask non-biologists for help (no joke, that's my plan). Whatever y'all decide is ok by me.

I prefer Monday morning at around 8 a.m. PST but am good if we stick the current time.

Just like the pro draft ,starts at an exact time and has a set time for each pick, which I set to 90 seconds on the clock in this one.If you don't draft somebody in 90 seconds or are not online it will draft the highest rated player for you.They are all ranked like 1-1000+ by computers on past stats and some predictions like in the example of rookies.Should take about 30-45 minutes as I did another one here at work last night and it was it took 45 minutes .
ESPN randomizes the draft order about 1 hour prior to it starting. and the the draft room opens then. When you log in within that hour it should say "enter draft room" next to the league or your team name.
I'm in a big money league with my bro-in-law back in Pa.and there's no time limit now for draft picks this year. It took 4 1/2 freakin hrs and it about drove me nuts. I don't know if some guys were on another line to Jimmy the Greek helping with their picks or what?:bash:
Drafted 5th and still got Arian Foster and then took a big chance on M Jones-Drew in the second round as he was still on the board .
Here's my team in that league
5th Matt Schaub QB
1st Arian Foster RB
2nd Maurice Jones-Drew RB
4th Roddy White WR
6th Steve Johnson WR
3rd Jimmy Graham TE
11th Sebastian Janikowski K
12th Baltimore Ravens Def/ST
Bench
8th Tony Romo QB
7th Cedric Benson RB
14th Isaac Redman RB
9th Percy Harvin WR
10th Anquan Boldin WR
13th Santana Moss WR

I tried searching the fantasy football league on ESPN, but I didn't have any luck with the search turning up "T4R 2012".... what am I doing wrong?

Pretty solid team. My serious work league draft normally takes 6+ and we do manual in-person draft. It's painful but fun. The secret is to host, that way you can drink all the...water...you want.

It was formed as private league and was by e-mail invite only. It filled up with the ten guys pretty fast on here.
There are alot of public leagues of random people on there that you can join to try it out though. They are drafting around the clock til kick off next Wednesday. Just register and and click on Join a League. It's just random people from all over the world playing people they don't know.
tip..... I would filter to a FREE-/Public/STANDARD league/ 10 TEAM / with Snake Draft

Maybe you should just go buy a jeep and complete the transformation.
Having said that, I could do Tuesday and it would give me an additional night at the pub.
Anyone know if I can use an iPad for the draft? I see that the draft uses flash and I can't use the ESPN web page, but there are some folks that have used an app with varying degrees of success. Anyone try an ESPN live draft with such an app? I'd like to avoid dragging my Commodore 64 to the bar tonight.

Oh, F! I was going to take my Ipad with me tonight to do this and did not think about that. So, App Store - ESPN Fantasy Football 2012

Definitely!
1. Go to the Apple App store
2. Find the ESPN app and download
3. Go to www.biologists-suck.com
4. Prepare to SUCK IT this year!

I'm probably just going to auto draft because I have NO IDEA what I'm doing!
But, it would be interesting to see if this can be done via iPad.
