<font color="black" face="arial">Sunday, March 17th - DRAFT DAY!!
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A couple of questions for our commissioner/league membership:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. What time are we starting? I'd prefer 8:00 a.m., but I've only got to get downtown from Wrigleyville. Cheapest parking is at 210 North Wells (enter from lower Wacker) - $11 and 2 blocks from the office.</div>
<div>2. What day are reserve rosters due? I'd prefer this Friday at 10:00 p.m. so that I've got this weekend to work on the draft, but I understand that some might want to use this weekend to finalize their rosters.</div>
<div>3. What day is the dump a dog deadline? I'd recommend the following Friday, the 15th since Spring Training still has many potential surprises for each of us. That would give us a day to rejigger draft lists.</div>
<div>4. Is anyone pulling together a non-rookie eligible NRI list? How about a list of the 40 man rosters? Given how early we're drafting, those are sure to be interesting lists of players.</div>
<div>5. Who is bringing the donuts? Last I recall, Jim had designated Brad and Dennis had kindly offered. I've got the coffee, tea and diet soda covered.</div>
<div>6. Can someone please bring a power strip. With all the computers, I'm guessing we'll need one.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>That's all I can think of, other than the fact, that the Berliners are still holding more keepers than they can retain and are still interested in 2 or 3 for 1 trades. You know where to find me.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Let the games begin!!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Jeff</div>
