I need to run down the hall for an internal meeting, but will break away and pick when I get the message. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan Sez 0 Posted February 27, 2003 Bad news. Longhorn called and has jury duty this afternoon. He has some work deadlines, caused by the ice so it maybe an hour or more before he can pick. Sorry. If Pale comes by and you have a short list for the next pick, you could email it to me or Jgalt. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whoisjgalt 0 Posted February 27, 2003 Then please have him give you a decent-sized list for the next pick too. If we can get through two rounds each today & tomorrow we don't have to babysit this over the weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whoisjgalt 0 Posted February 27, 2003 By the way - that meeting started early, but is now over. Barring anything unexpected, I'm around for the afternoon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan Sez 0 Posted February 27, 2003 Well, longhorndd took off with his list and he said he did not have any time this morning to look over what transpired or what he wanted to do. Once he gets to where ever it is he is pulling jury duty, he will give me a call. Status slow... I will be on and off a bit also - trying to catch up on my lost time this week. Thanks Orgazmo for relaying my draft pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whoisjgalt 0 Posted February 27, 2003 We just had an "emergency" meeting announced for 4-5pET. Heads are rolling here. I won't be able to pick during that time. If Longhorn can supply his pick before I go, then I can pick right away. Otherwise - we have to wait another hour. (Not calling Dan - last time Longhorn stole the 1st choice I had given him ;) .) Not worried about my job - I know who will be let go in my group and that b!tch deserves it (gross incompetence). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan Sez 0 Posted February 27, 2003 Whoisjgalt- well, I mentioned after that string of picks where I posted xxxx called, xxxx emailed it was four of so picks in a row! And it was rather humorous because I was trying to be short and to the point on the phone because I did know what some others were thinking about - I hope I did not come off as rude or distant to Orgazmo, Blitzen or you. In that specific case, in previous discussions, Steve McNair had not even been mentioned before. As I talked to Longhorn he touched on a couple of recievers and then - like a streak out of the blue - came the name McNair. I burst out laughing and but did not say anything. I regard the trust in me as more valuable than wins, more valuable than money. It was funny how that whole string went down. Blitzen snagged a player I knew was on Orgazmo's short list.

whoisjgalt 0 Posted February 27, 2003 Believe me - it's just teasing. That's what the string of ;) was for. You're doing a great job of managing this fraft. Please allow us to have a little fun with you and each other ( :Dit'll happen regardless ). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan Sez 0 Posted February 27, 2003 I can take the teasing. I appreciate the humor and that is why I put the funny face in the offical post string. In some ways, I take extra steps to respect the trust placed in me, like not taking LaDell Betts when I knew that was probably the last swing by per Orgazmo's message. I have LaDell Betts in LOD and was interested in him but chose to let him swing on by and if he did make it back to me, once Orgazmo had a chance to snag him again, then I would have taken him over Correll Buckhalter. But it is all good. I hope both players do well for both teams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BTW...you're doing an awesome job and I have full faith and confidence you will do the right thing, probably to a fault. Same for JGalt, you both have run an awesome draft.

Dan Sez 0 Posted February 27, 2003 Finally! News from Longhorndd. He is on a two day jury trial. Anyway, he just got out and will call back in 15 min or so. But the news is not all good. The boss wants me to help him test his current or set up a new lazer printer at his home tonight so that will keep me far from the net for a number of hours. I will be back on line later tonight (past 8:00p Central?). I am hoping Longhorn calls before I have to leave. Today has been a mess. Sorry guys but we only have 2 1/2 rounds to go. This will probably drag into Saturday. I have most of your phone numbers now (at home) so if possible check in as much as you can tomorrow and Saturday so we can complete the draft. thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan Sez 0 Posted February 27, 2003 Longhorn is supposed to call me late tonight so I can update him and maybe get a list for his pick at 11. thanks for you patience Dan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
