I am wondering when the draft will be held for those electing to be on a Draft Team? I understand that those who have joined an Open Team cannot be on a Draft Team as well. Last time it was on a Sunday. Teams should be selected sooner rather than later as we need to go into a training phase. I would like my Draft Team to do better than some of the Open Teams. Also I need some rule clarification. Will each team be expected to list 6 tomato weights or 3 weights, one tomato from each A, B and C grower or what. Two tomatoes from each member of a team doesn't seem right to me. But then, my memory is failing. Maybe top two tomatoes from each Draft Team with the tomatoes coming from different members? Help. Also, who is in charge of what?

Draft is next Sunday at high noon....sign up cut off for the draft is 5 o’clock today. Team total consists of each growers 2 best fruits. Zeke is in charge of kicking ass on the numbers and keeping everyone updated as the team tally’s start to accumulate. Yours truly, and your second favorite tomato grower is in charge of the rest....yer welcome.

How many people so far are in the Draft section? How many A, B, and C growers? Try not to pull my name out of the hat last. Maybe put me in charge of the draw. I have a hat.

When do we get a list of who is in and who is drafting and who is available to be drafted? Also why not draw the names to see what order those who will be drafting are in, first, second etc sort of like they do for football. It would help if those doing the drafting knew the order they were in and who will be available for them to choose from. This is a big deal, maybe bigger than the football draft, especially since they might not even play this year.

Good idea marv...zeke is sending out the list...we will confirm the draft order and post the standings tomrw...maybe we should do a tomato contest chat some evening this week?...

Everybody in the draft should now have the list
EXCEPT: VT Mike, JimG and Penrygarden. I can't find your email addresses.

If you're entered in the draft and didn't get the list I might have your email wrong so let me know.

I have picked my team. Who do I bribe to get them? Help me here Porkchop. Draw the names out of the hat to see who goes first etc. in choosing. Then we can see if people are willing to trade their spot for some seeds or something.
