2012-2013 Champions League Draft Commentary

[ugk34]

All,

Just wanted to apologize for the amount of time it took me to make picks as well as missing some. Just moved to Missouri for a new position with my company and My job is very demanding right now. On top of that my wife is pregnant and almost due and just been so busy with building a new home, going to pregnancy classes, work, blah blah. I Probably should have taken this year off from The Octagon knowing the pace and competitiveness but I've been a part of this league for so long and I'd hate to miss a year. Hopefully my teams are competitive but I'll admit my preparation wasn't the usual.

Thanks!

Well this sucks. I build a team around Love and he won't be around for the start of the season.

And I see I'm up against you week 1 and you've picked up Derrick Williams.

No worries as we're all aware real life takes precedence. Just hope things pan out smoothly. Oh and if no one has mentioned this to you:

Oh how I wish that was true.

How about you just leave a list of 5 or 6 players?

lol didn't know why I didn't think of that. actually thought of that but somehow didn't believe that we would come close to my pick and I didn't wanna prepare a 12 name list while I'm so busy. anyway there is no problem, I might even be able to pick before I lift off. if not I'll send you a list

Being all out of Love ( ) for 4 to 6 weeks hurts, but at least I was lucky enough to have Derrick Williams be available for my last pick in the draft. Here's to hoping that Love comes back early and at 100%, and that Williams plays so well that MIN is able to trade him to a team that can give him significant PT as a starter or 6th man (PHI? CHA? WAS? ATL?) and he excels as well

[RedHopeful]

Good luck to you all this season. Everything has been entered and we're good to go.
