Just to get this out of the way. I forfeit pick #27.

With the 19th Pick in the 2009 FFDL draft TheTeam selects Danilo Gallinari.

Note that unlike BWW I can actually spell (cut and paste actually). I have no idea who this Galinari guy is that BWW select.

Rafer Alston will be dropped.

Next year the password will be theman whose team will be lead to the championships by Danilo Gallinari.

This is all quite humourous I'm sure.

If his proper name ("Big C*ck") was used, all of this confusion would have been avoided.

I'd like to change the Hansbrough pick, please. I pick Blake Austin Griffin, the first time the drafter said his full given name and therefore the first time he's been picked. Flynn and Griffin, what a draft this year. :)

All the confusion would have been avoided had I been allowed to keep Gallinari in the first place! It's not like I tried to make the change during the draft, it was before the draft even started. Had BWW been a gentleman and left him for me, oh, wait, that's right he did leave him for me. Thanks BWW.

If I can have my rightful property in Gallinari can I use the Rubio Rule and select John Wall pg Kentucky?

I think all the confusion would have been avoided if you had checked the boards like the rest of us. :oops:

Would one courtesy email be to much effort on the part of anyone on this board? I know last year when cfan was AOL I sent emails to all the addresses I had for him as well as posting on the Celtics board. I guess I don't rate the same courtesy.

Is it quicker to wait for an email or to click on your bookmarked FFDL thread link just in case.

I'm 'sorry TheMan, I see your point, but I don't think there should be any excuse for lack of activity in one of these leagues. I was ULTRA busy this past 6 months writing a dissertation in under 2 months, welcoming a new little one into the world, and moving my wife and kids across the US to start a new job...and I was able to check enough to make the deadline for drops. My recollection is that Jordan gave us ample time...at least a number of weeks.
