LetsPlay2 2005 Draft Results

The 2005 league draft was held on March 26, 2005.

Prior to the draft, we voted on the following items:
  • 4 playoff teams this year
  • Payout: $300 to the winner, $100 for 2nd place
  • 2 Disable List (DL) spots
  • 25 moves during the year
  • Straight draft order, rather than the usual wrap-around

Some conspicuous highlights:
  • Toe Denise constantly admiring and stroking G-man Jerry Kee's trophy throughout the draft.
  • It will be interesting over the course of the season to gauge the draft quality of the 2 camps in the league: the Icehouse drinkers and the Guinness guzzlers.
  • Cudos to Ian Tucker selecting for Stormy Steve, who provided the ultimate in fantasy tardiness excuses: his house burnt down. Thanks Ian!
  • Of course, welcome to our only newbie this year, Eric Schoonover. Eric, owner of the nascent Vatican City Popes, fit right in with the group by proclaiming his player drafting skills "infallible."
  • After the draft, the Illini overcome a 15 point deficit in the final 4 minutes to beat Arizona and head to the Final Four.
enjoy... yow, bill
