Cory, I'll definitely be back....

One day is fine. Two days would be better.

5x5 is my preference, too.

I'll go with the majority on this one.

I like eight, thanks.

I'm fine with this, although we might want to build in some kind of inflation for players that are kept at some point. If you want to keep a player rather than expose him to the draft, his price increases by $3, something like that....

Let me know how much I owe you, and what the best way to get the money to you would be. I paid Rob directly, but I'm enjoying the league and paying twice won't be a burden.
Thanks....
