It looks like the draft will be held at 7PM on October 18th. Expect to be involved for a couple of hours or so. I will have it formally announced sometime within the next 24 hours.

Again, the draft will be held at 7 Central Time/8 Eastern Time.

For Bullseye, that would be 2 AM Your time.

For Engies, that would be about 11 PM Your time.

Hope I got this time right for the guys who live overseas.

Will post the announcement on the league site...

Cool 07 and M1Peter1 have not communicated with me yet...

I just checked and saw that the draft time for me is not at 11pm but at 11am....and i'm working

I'm going to have to drop out, how do I do that?.

Okay, the league is full again. Senrad..thanks for your patience. I sent you an invite, let me know if you have any questions. The draft is again at 7PM Central on Sunday...

At 6PM Central you can view the draft order, randomly decided by ESPN...

From next year on, I believe the draft order will be predetermined according to record.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the draft, some of you who didn't? Good luck. I want to especially thank the owners from overseas. You all logged in at inconvenient hours and joined us for the draft, I really appreciate it. Next year will be a lottery. I have the software. Any questions, shoot me an email. Again I thank all of you for making this so easy for me so far...

How often and when are we allowed to change the lineups of our roster? Couldn´t find that.

You can change the lineup daily, before the start of the first game one of your players are involved in.

You can change the roster daily, before the start of the first scheduled game.

There are no limits on trades, but there is a trade deadline, February 17, 2010. I will try to keep everyone up to date on that.

Speaking of trades, I have the right to review all trades, as well as other owners. 4 objections will veto a deal. So I definitely will be watching people who are making deals with friends/family. As far as my guys in the league, no problem there, I wouldn't trade Brandon Marshall to my friend and he needs a WR bad, but I play to win, I don't care if its my mother! I cannot stop people from giving each other advice. But the game allows you to have a 2nd owner for each team, just let me know who you want to co own the team with and give me their info.

Each team is allowed two keepers. These are players you will retain on your team, the rest of your team becomes draft eligible. You must have keepers decided by September 6, 2010. The draft will be held sometime next year in October. Will set a date very soon so that people can make plans.

6 out of 14 teams will make the playoffs with the 2 division winners receiving byes through the first round.

The winner will get the prize, to be determined...

The remainder of the teams will enter the consolation ladder tournament. The winner of the ladder tournament will be guaranteed a top 4 pick in the upcoming draft.

I will ask a moderator to conduct the lottery. Which is a simple formulaic excel spreadsheet which can perform the same function as the nba lottery. Hopefully, whoever does it will announce the lottery winners on their show. I will then give ESPN the draft order.

Possible league expansion and other additions will be voted on by owners, I say right now we stay where we are at...

A waiting list will be made, once an owner vacates a team, I will advertise the opening on this site and for a certain span of time the team will be available to bullspodcasters.com members only. After that, any friends and family that league owners have on a waiting list will be contacted. All new owners will be voted in by present owners. Owners are entitled to know who these people are related to or friends with prior to voting. Once an owner is placed in the league that has been recommended, the owner making the recommendation will not have another chance to bring anyone into the league until other owners' recommendations are considered.

If you feel you have to vacate a team but you don't really want to, you can have someone run the team for you temporarily, just let me know (it cannot be another owner in the league). That is all...for now.

Does it make any difference if my player is in the starting lineup or on a util spot?

I know I thanked you last night but just want to say thanks again Hou for setting up the league, lord knows I never would've had the patience to organize this whole thing.

Now that the games are about to begin, I'm ready for some good hearted trash talk. I'll start it off.

Kirk Hinrich owns you... soon to change his name to Diddy owns you. :p

I suggest trying to trade with Mark (Da Drones owner). He has like 5 pg's on his squad, 3 which are starters I believe.
