Just one quick question, Nick, me being a neophyte to this game and all. Perhaps it's just wishful thinking on my part, but I was wondering if, perhaps, this draft operated by "the first shall be last" convention of inverting draft order in every round.

I would imagine not, but I just felt the need to mention it, as that system does allow for a bit more parity in making choices.

Sorry, but I picked the names random. What's the prestige of an early slot if you're bitchslapped in the second round?

I, for one, am just relieved that I'll have someone of such intelligence and wit with whom to hold discussions. On those long, lonely nights, it'll be great to have a companion of substance. You know, someone with whom to read Dickens by firelight...

42. Udo 1
43. Seahawk

Willko stole my number four!

Ah well...hopefully the rest of the list stays intact.

She's your number 4? Wow. She was one of the ones I had on my list for choice #1 ... knowing -- or figuring -- that Liz, X and Y would already be chosen by the time we got to me. Surprisingly, X and Y are still up for grabs! But Heather ... Oh, my ... not a #4 there...

only four? natalie's cute and smart... (a few i.q. points higher than elizabeth hurley, i'd bet).

okay, so she's not in anything spectacular in '01. we all know what's comin' around the corner...

but if it makes flyers130 feel better, he took my 15th pick.

nick was probably going to do that, but we'll have to wait and see if the first round ever finishes. sorry, nick.

i'm excited about seeing how far my pre-draft list will go... so far i've lost about 7 of my choices in round 1... and i've got about 15 left. you gotta go for depth.

my problem today was not having access to the boards from 10 am until about 7 pm. this almost screwed me over, because it was during that window that my pick came up... but i was lucky.

This is Blofeld's mother here. I think you all should be ashamed of yourselves. Objectifying people like that. Disgusting.

This is Blofeld's father here. I think my wife is absolutely correct, and you should all be ashamed and grow up!

D R A F T!

Come on people! I've been waiting a very long time and the wait is killing me!

...then again, it only gets worse as this draft goes on...

please draft...if only to save my fragile heart from exploding, sending blood and guts and...

i'm done now.

we're down to the last five of round 1:

39. Eli Cross
40. DJ Dylan
41. Wheel99
42. Udo 1
43. Seahawk

i guess nick will announce who can go next, but i'd bet it's safe to say that at least the first three can go any time now...

Round two ISN'T starting until a few changes are made, actually. So, even if everyone from round 1 votes, hang loose.

No Steve. Be glad that willko got Natalie. Because then you would have still had hope, and then I would have gotten her ONE TURN before you.

And then you'd cry like a baby.
