I guess I'm lost when other people prep for drafts, there is only one way I prep for a draft, and that's by drafting in other leagues, lol.

Might one consider you a draft junkie? LOL
Actually, I'm kind of curious. How does that work? I'm assuming you're not a part of any official leagues that you're drafting with. Are they all mock practice drafts?

actually, a lot of mock drafts, but on espn alone I'm in 9 leagues, and yahoo I have 3 accounts with 4 leagues each. And I am in 3 local cash pools. On top of that I commish 2 leagues. Needless to say, when summer time comes, I get bored, lol.

Hmmm. Just two hockey pools at our house. Red plays a weekly one in the winter too. How in blazes do you manage so many.... maybe I know!
Let's see at our house it works like this each year - 40 ball games 20 practises (I'm coach) - 35 lacrosse games 25 practises (assistant coach) - 50 hockey games 25 practises (assistant coach/manager) - 30 ringette games 15 practises - Minor Ball President, scheduler, umpire scheduler, equipment (11 teams, 150 kids) - organize Softball Coaching Clinic - umpire - golfing 15 times - organize back yard rink tournament (7 fathers/sons) - make 40x70 back yard rink - organized retirement party for Bill Page (57 years umpiring) - ISA executive, WOAA executive - marketing for a Cancer Fundraiser (500 people/4 bands) - raise two kids - work (including 6 Farm Shows) - hard enough fitting in two hockey pools!

I promise I will be as helpful as possible, whatever that means!
Forgot - I run my own business too! Photography (group photos, weddings) and printing. Working on some business cards right now! Damn things need to be ready for pickup at 6:30 tomorrow morning! (Mostly for tax write off)

lol, hmmmm red, hinting that I have too much free time on my hands?
While I won't snub what you do, because that is alot. I think the most time consuming thing you listed was raising kids.
I referee hockey; go to university; work an average of 60 hours a week; on the time I do get off, I travel; I'm also looking into opening my own buisness. Clearly I have less than you Red. But I'd lose my sanity if I didn't have my hockey pools

Ahhh, I've got you both beat. I co-commish the Nutbars du Canucks with my good buddy Greg. Now that is a LOT of work....
