While we're drifting off-topic, I should point out that I really liked the film. My dislike of Lucas' lying about Star Wars and how terrible the one prequel I saw was have zero affect on how I view his other work. My feelings regarding Lucas & all things Star Wars are completely separate from all things Indiana Jones. That's why you don't see me jumping on the "Lucas has destroyed everything he touches" hate wagon. I have no interest in punishing him or slamming him constantly - the way some people do around here. I have no problem separating the prequels & SEs from Indiana Jones - because they are separate.

Left unchecked, I think Lucas is a bad film maker. As part of a creative team, I think he's a great idea man. He is one third of the team that has created all four Indiana Jones films, not the destroyer of worlds that the prequel haters want to make him out to be.

To continue off-topic - this is all very well said and I agree.  I thought Indy 4 could have been decent but had too many groan moments to properly enjoy.  I've recently watched two fanedits of the film and I find it to be a worthwhile watch now.

Ipad?  Pass.  I have an 4th Gen ipod, a 2nd Gen shuffle, and a regular old style limited flip phone.  I don't move around enough to need a portable device like an iphone or something similar.

I'm curious why David Bowie isn't #10 on your list.

 Because after listening to "Paralyzer" 3 times, you get a little board. But when you listen to another song then you realize how much you miss it.

Oh, ok.  I thought you were ranking your favorites, not the order you listen.

Btw, if you listen to "Paralyzer" 6 times, do you get a big board?

Ok, so thinking about the draft a little...

Opening Day is Monday, April 5.  There is one "opening night" game Sunday, April 4, which is LAME, but never mind that.  Seems like sometime during a weekend would be the best time for the draft, but which weekend?  We could do it either Friday April 2 or Saturday April 3, but it might be better to give everyone a little more time prior to the season starting.  So I'm thinking either Friday night March 26 or Saturday night March 27.

It seems like the season is a long way off, but that weekend is only a few weeks away...

Thoughts?  Also, what time zone is everybody in?  I'd like to pick a time that works best for the most people.  I'm Mountain Time Zone, and I'd prefer sometime around 7pm local (9pm eastern) but I can be somewhat flexible I think.  The draft will probably take 2-3 hours as a rough guess.

If you haven't tried it yet, there is a mock draft feature on Yahoo that can give you a feel for how the draft software works and give you some practice.  Link is here:

We are doing a standard draft (not an auction draft).

Finally, any of you new folk have any questions yet?  Have you had a chance to read through the rules and settings, or check out any of the websites I recommended?
