Sometimes it a pain to be the commissioner

Sometimes its a pain to be the commissioner. Oh sure it looks glamorous at times, but I assure you its hard work. I would like to be like the guy on the Fantasy Football commercial that could offer valet parking for the season. Maybe that would help get team owner on board early. As is the norm, we were scramblin' for owners at the last minute. Only a few people responded to my earlier e-mails. So I just set the draft date on Saturday like we did last year. That's the best day to do a draft since the NFL started the Thursday nite kick-off game. We used to be able to do the draft the week following labor day. Now it has to be labor day week-ends. All those lame pre-season games will be over and teams will have made the cuts by then.

Chet Jets and brownies Sand Bagger are out. So we got two new owners this year and a field of ten. Etim Edim is the spouse of Pamela's cousin and Jim Daly is a friend of Double D's. Welcome rookie owners.

The draft went smooth. The open slot was on auto draft. So thing went quickly. After a few round you could pretty much predict what auto draft would do. I think we did the whole thing in an hour.

So we are ready. Good luck to everyone. Hope I win again this year.
