Well, the Delco Fantasy Football League
(DFFL) held its draft today. Nine of the ten team owners attended the live draft, held in Aston, PA. The tenth team owner, Pete, participated via cell phone. We believe he was probably playing with his cats and did not drink as much beer as we did.
There was no surprise with the #1 pick, as NFL MVP Ladanian Tomlinson went , followed by Steven Jackson. That put me on the clock at #3 where I took Larry Johnson.
Highlights of the day included me seeing Maria for the first time in years. Shane is a very lucky man, though he did take kickers in consecutive rounds. Food and beer were plentiful. The use of of the word "Phuck" was limited primarily to Pesotskis, with a sprinkling form others directed at Walklett.
Hesse has a beautiful home and a great setup for the draft, with wireless internet, a bar, pool table and big screen TV in the basement. We could not have done much better. Thanks to commish #1 Goot and Commish #2 lil bro Matty (above right)for their organizational talents. They may still be there figuring out the finances.

I draft a week from today, No. 4 spot overall.
I like the Whiten pick in round 8. Mare at 13 is good, too. Good luck.

Damn, you didn't waste any time on the post. Nice work, cool pics.
You did however waste your money in this league. My team is BEEFY. Good luck, you'll need it.
Walklett -
Taking advantage of mom's free internet still? Or does the new job have a computer?
Good job on the recap and the photos. Finance are all figured out, I'm gonna win and keep most of it. You can see full draft results, here.
On paper, your team looked terrific I'm sure. Once the season started and the players started underperforming, it likely resulted in another 5th-10th place finish.
I had roughly the same roster and had the same experience. What a waste of your top pick (on LJ) - wished you'd known during the draft I'm sure.
