Damn I had a feeling finding a day and time was going to be an issue...

Could you guys also respond to what part of the day would work on the 26th? (noonish? 2-4? 5-7? After 9?) Keep in mind the draft will last several hours...

The draft didn't last hours (how many you thinking?) when I did it last year you had about 3 mins to pick. Guess it took about an hour. Also I know last year you could set up a auto pick list so it would grab the top guys available you preselected. So if you can't be there this is an option.

Any time the 26th is cool just need time of start.
Evening is best for me.

Satin, the draft I did last year took less than 20 minutes

We will have 90 seconds per pick, that will be more than enough time, we just need to find a time we are all free.

Prefer morning on the 26th but can do most any time other than after 10 pm.
Can we get the draft order setbefore draft day? I'd like to know where i'm picking, it has a lot of bearing on how, who and when i'm picking certain players. A week before would be great!!
I am flying to the East Coast that weekend and have meetings the afternoon and early evening of the 26th. 9 pm central time or later on the 26th will work fine for me. I agree with Don, it won't take long to complete the draft. The league I was in last year only gave us 90 seconds to make our picks and that was plenty of time.

I'll try posting a time later tonight or tomorrow based on all the information given, I'm pretty sure we can have a time where we are all free.

Dammit, the info I was given said it would take some time. We have 12 teams and about 17 rounds or do...not sure how that will be done in 20 minutes, but whatever. I'm good for any time, so whatever yall decide I'm good.

BT, I got you on th second game I believe. You're gonna get stomped bro...lmao..

But if it makes you feel better, you have my permission to dream on Bro!

Alright guys, the weekend of 25-26th doesn't seem like it's going to work out. And it's more than just one person, so lets try another date.

Next weekend is the 18-19th. And the only remaining weekend option will be Sept. 1-2nd, but college football starts that weekend, so I'm not sure if that will go over to well. I wouldn't mind doing it on that weekend, though.

We could even do sometime during a weekday, but I don't know, we have a lot of options here. But lets try to get a date down within the next few days. I'm guessing you guys still want to do it on a weekend?

My unsolicited advice: Pick a time. You're not going to find a time that all 12 people will agree on.

It just ain't gonna happen!
I agree. Just set a time and we will have to show or auto pick. Closer to the season is best to limit the number of injured players getting drafted.
