I guess I shouldn't have taken the time to reply to your post then?

Mike Modano will be my pick then... in order to maintain a speedy draft...

Well, when it states in the rules that I have 15 hours, you gave me 2/3rd my time. You took away my third period. There's rules in place that speed up the game, regardless if people make their picks or not.

But I can't blame you either. I think I've developed a reputation of not having much patience.

see, and here is where you have misread me. It wasn't impatience. I genuinely thought there was a chance you missed that you were up next. (Things moved quickly last night.) I wanted to give a heads up so that you would have the time to think about and make your pick.

I can't 'take away' your time. You can give it away, I can't take it away.

It's the nature of the draft, sometimes it's quick, sometimes it's slow.
8am is not the time to give it a little 'push'

I'll try to change the title as much as possible but I'm not always around so keep an eye on it if it's close to your turn.

I appreciate your efforts, Girly.

However, I was not trying to give it a 'push'. Please read my previous posts.

I will not do it again as I wouldn't want my attempts to be helpful (note: unselfish motive) misconstrued as impatience (note: selfish motive).

Yes I know now, but the first post seemed that way (the way I read it)
Unselfish motives are always welcome!

Except for FanIn80, he's always selfish

well for me at work all i get is the pick, some pictures I cant view...
but Im not the one that missed it, just trying to rationalize how it could be missed

on the flip side, chelios has been playing for so damn long, at times it feels like maybe theres been 2 of them in the league

seriously....
the guy is older than dirt

I guess since I looked at the unupdated draft board instead of flipping through all the posts, thats the reason I missed out on Chelios
