Hi Joe. Unfortunately, I couldn't read the story. It is behind a pay wall. But it looks good!

Send me your email and I will send you a copy. I found a way to print a copy before the paywall loaded and made a PDF.

Hey Dale,

I just sent it via email, but a PDF would be good. Forward to me and I'll get it to the rest. I wasn't able to get the pictures and I'm betting you did!

Joe, just so I can plan things out -- is clock starting tomorrow? I know there was some pushback about starting clock midday, so probably best?

Actually, I was going to start it now. I guess there's not *that* much time left for today but...

IDK, Anyone have an opinion?

Clock is going on tonight. Be ready to pick tomorrow with the clock on.

I got a request for no clock over Easter weekend which I take to mean, starting on Good Friday.

Seems to make sense to me. Anyone have a problem with turning the clock off on Thursday night and keeping it off until Monday morning?

You guys ever heard of proxies? I have proxies set for my next six picks. If everyone did that, this draft would be over in 3 days or less. Just saying.
