    Sure, I'll give it a shot. Hopefully I still have enough songs to pick come the later rounds. Might have to do some extra research!

      I was going to propose that NEIL'S Buffalo Springfield/CSNY songs be eligible, but that others not be. If Neil wrote or co-wrote a BS or CSNY song, you can take it, if he didn't, you can't.

          Ditto. He has so many epic songs that it's impossible to pick which one is the very best.

            I figured we would copy the format of the Dylan draft, assuming we end up with 6-8 teams. 15 rounds, with an option to extend to 20 if that's what people want, 4 hour time limit on weekdays, 8 hour time limit on weekends, clock active 9 AM - 9 PM Eastern.

              I know sheep wanted to be in this so if he doesn't respond, I can fill in for him until he returns.

                Good to know. Let's see where we are tomorrow afternoon, maybe we'll be able to kick it off on Thursday morning.

                  Just heard from Sheep:

                  No can do... I'm super-busy at work for the next couple weeks, so I'm on holiday from RotoJunkie. Have fun!

                      I've got some time for once, can I get in? I'm kicking myself for missing the Dylan draft.

                          Welcome!

                          DMT, do you want to see about pairing up with Sheep, maybe using a list from him or something?

                            I take exception. A fine song it is, or at least was in its original recorded form. The guys are all 80 now, so I don't expect as much. But it's still a good song with clever lyrics. Everybody, at some point, just has to let their freak flag fly.

                              If he's up for it, sure. And I can probably hold my own for the first few rounds.

                                Going through Neil's entire catalog, I wonder if anyone here is familiar with ALL of it. It's massive, and there's so many half-forgotten weird excursions into nowhere... there's no way anybody knows all these LPs by heart. I'm sure you guys ran into this in the Dylan draft as well.

                                For example, I loved the 'Re-actor' LP and know those songs backwards and forwards, but I can't recall a single tune from, say, 'Old Ways'.
