    If you have never done an auction draft it is well worth it. You get a shot at any player you want if you want to bid high enough for them. So much better than a snake draft.

    I don't know if there is an auto-pick but I am sure there is. You would probably have to set how much your team would bid on players.

    Holy fuck, we filled the league! Every goddamn year it makes me relieved.

    Thanks to Kinsey for the work as my co-commissioner/money collector. And thanks to everyone who signed up.

    Meanwhile, he's busy putting another shrimp on the barbie and pretending to have an exciting adventurous sex life. Oh wait, I forgot we actually believe his stories, nevermind...

    And I wouldn't inject my opinion into a conversation which is discussing a subject I have no interest in. I would keep those thoughts to myself. He decided to insert his opinion.

    Back to baseball, does anyone here have the MLB Package for PS3/XBOX/BOXEE?

    Got a chance to pick it up for 100 bucks this year and while the features seem good just wondering if anyone has it.

    Missed a ton of Tigers games last season and living in Charlotte I can only take so many Braves games.

    I didn't know there was a separate package for PS3. In past years I have gotten MLB.TV which you can watch on the PS3. I generally used it on the computer when there was a day game I cared about, but it worked great on the PS3 when I'd use it.

    I'll also vouch for mlb.tv. I've had it the past three seasons and it's run great off my laptop. This year I'll be using it through AppleTV, so I'm looking forward to seeing how it displays on the big screen (though my cousin had no issues with AppleTV last season). On another note, if you have a buddy or two living in a market outside of his preferred team, you can (at your own risk) split the cost and share the log in information. I've had multiple people on my account all three seasons (and as many as four last season) and have never had an issue.

    Glad you guys filled the league. I'll be back next season.

    My second trip to the finals in the past three years. Hopefully my team doesn't implode in on itself like it did that season.

    Congrats. I can't believe my offense completely shit the bed in the 2nd round of the playoffs. Jay Bruce had a ridiculous week during my bye, like 4 or 5 HRs. He had 2 fucking hits this past week.

    I think it's been 6 years. 6 years of this league and I finally get a W.

    Thanks for joining this year everyone, was a damn fine year for baseball. If it makes you all feel better, I'm getting married in 20 days and can really use the $700 right now.

    See you all next year.

    Congrats. I'm still pissed at Jay Bruce for completely shutting the fuck down after my bye week. Spend the entire $700 on the bachelor party buddy, you earned it.

    I'll take my meager $100 and cry into it.
