Have fun kids. Can't make it on a Thursday. I'd likely just annoy you by constantly ripping on the FO anyway. :lol:

Last year we had 25, it's approaching the maximum capacity to comfortably watch at my house.

Hah! For decades, I've used virtually the same words to describe myself and those who know me well simply nod their heads in agreement.

Kudos to Doug for doing this every year. I think it's great.

You should make it over there too. Last year was my first, great time for all. Doug's an awesome host.

Was in the process of moving to Chicago last season so I couldn't make it. Just starting a new job now, so unsure if I'll be able to make it having to work the later shift, but I'll send you a pm in hopes that I can make it. I'd love to meet and hang out with a bunch of Bulls fans

I might be in, simply for the fact that this might be the last draft party and I would love to meet some of you guys/gals in person. Might stop by for a couple hours assuming the wifey has nothing already planned for that weekend.
