Fantasy Draft BS

So me and some guys from work are doing a fantasy league. The draft was scheduled for 1045 this morning. Well 2 guys didn't login to they were autopicks. A couple guys were b*tching in the chat about it saying we need to reschedule, which is really dumb, if someone doesn't care enough to login who gives a ish if they are autopicked.. So they keep bitching and half way through the 2nd round the commish decides that the draft will be a mock draft and he'll reschedule the 'real' draft. I had picked up Tom Brady and Larry Fitzgerald with my first 2 picks so I'm pretty pissed. What's better is that they rescheduled for this Friday at 1245 PM....Really? You reschedule the draft during the day on a work day? I'm taking Thursday and Friday off, but still, what a bunch of crap. I'm tempted to just tell them I'm out of the league, as I'm in a different draft with guys I worked with in college and I'll have more fun in that league anyway. I just don't want to come off as a little b*tch for dropping out of the league. /endrant

If you miss a draft, its your own fault. Nobody should have to do anything to make it up to you. Dumb.

Not serious. Last year was the first year I played. I enjoyed it, but I don't follow NFL much.

I f'd up a draft last year. A few people couldnt make it and i freaked out and changed the time, a couple times, before it took place. Instead of 2 people not making it, 6 people didn't make it. I felt pretty bad about it.
This year I'm leaving it and if people can't make it then tough sh** for them.

this.
doesn't sound like it will be much fun to be in that league...sounds like a lot of whining coming your way if something doesn't happen the way they want it to happen.

2 guys didn't show up? Boo-hoo, it should only be rescheduled if half or more people are missing. That's why the commissioner should try to get a hold of everyone ahead of time to see a good time for everyone.
