goc Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I'm pretty much just saying, I am more drafting to fill needs than taking the most talented guys left. In fact, I have quite a few shitty wrestlers left that I will be targeting.
KrisZ Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I was probably going to take him with my next pick
goc Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I don't have enough fat dudes who I can put under masks is what I am saying. Jody Hamilton, Dirty Rhodes & Don Bass aren't enough for my booking style. I would like to share my comedy option idea for an Assassin #2 but I still would actually like to draft him if he falls really really far so I won't give his name away.
goc Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I kind of want to make a post in my Southwest Championship thread that copies the TEW "Ownership Directives" thing and lays out some goals that Joe Blanchard has told me I must accomplish but that may be going too far.
KrisZ Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 This may be the lowest amount of picks in one day we have had yet
rainmakerrtv Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I don't think I have refreshed a web page as many times in my life as since the draft started.
goc Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I don't know if the steam has come out of the draft a little now that all the obvious big names and favorites are gone, or if it's just a slow day. I will say that I am STOKED to get Killer Khan for two months. I didn't take him although I really wanted to because he's somewhat hard to keep fresh as a week to week guy but 2 months of Killer Khan means he gets to be as blood thirsty and destructive as he can be.
Beast Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 We may need to have more people taking advantage of the people who have easier schedules to post their picks.
KrisZ Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 IIRC I think Wahoo is sleeping from working all night
goc Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Let's just throw out fake hints at each other about our next picks.
Dylan Waco Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I thought the later rounds would go quicker as people just scrambled to fill up their undercards but I think the opposite is happening. People are now looking for diamonds in the rough and/or desperately scrambling to fill needs with the few remaining pieces that might fit. I also think the time zone issue is having more of an effect as now people don't see as much value in their picks, so the immediacy isn't there anymore.
KrisZ Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I think we need to shorten the time limits after this round.......all of the other major sport leagues shorten their limits as the draft goes on
goc Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I just hope the guy I want who shares his name with a middle eastern country is still there when I make my next pick.
Matt D Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Best I can come up with is a Little Egypt joke. Forget it.
Grimmas Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Yeah, is it really going to be big deal if somebody has to pick 18th in the round instead of 13th because they were late. Nobody is a big deal at this point, anyway.
goc Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I still wouldn't want to shorten it too much. 5-6 hour range.
Beast Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Maybe when we get past round 15 or something, we shorten the time limit to 5 hours?
Dylan Waco Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I am not opposed to shortening time limits, but I don't think it's going to make that much of a difference. I actually disagree with Grimmas though. I think there are three to four more rounds where solid picks will be available. By the time we hit round 15 or 16 it is going to be slim pickings though. People will need to be creative.
goc Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Joe Blanchard has hired some incredible seamstresses and costume makers.
goc Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I worry about people thinking they have some "secret" sleeper for late rounds and don't want to use proxies for these reasons. Someone did get mad enough to send a PM about he who shall not be named any further in this thread.
Boon Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 My two picks are pretty close together, hoping to get them both in, and then got another 30 draft picks to wait. Ol the joy of a random draw...
goc Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Do not reveal the identity of the man under that mask! I need him to fall.
