        I'm sorry, man, but I've got magic. I've got poetry in my fingertips. Most of the time--and this includes naps --I'm an F-18, bro. And I will destroy you in the air. I will deploy my ordinance to the ground.

          What was the generally accepted definition of "laptop" in 1985?

              Two questions for rotolab users --

              does it allow customization for points leagues?

              has anyone ever run it on a Mac using Parallels?

              thanks.

                Okay... I finally got a chance to check out the RotoLab suggestion. It looks amazing. But.... I may totally be just a cheap B@stard, but $70?!?! It looks outstanding, but is it $50 value more than other products out there? I certainly do my homework and feel pretty good going into my draft. I do like a software program just to provide a framework for my draft and do some basic accounting for me so that I can enjoy the social aspects of the day instead of crunching numbers all the time. Our total league kitty only counts about $1.5-2k.... seems like a sizeable chunk for my needs.

                I've used Diamond Draft the last several years. Is there another product that maybe falls between these 2 in price/functionality?

                  I think Rotolab can help a lot of owners draft better - and hurt others who don't know what they are doing.

                  I'm still a 20-25 pages of paper kind of owner once it comes to the auction. We usually have a couple of computer-assisted guys, but it hasn't worked in our league so far (not that it can't).

                  A lot like poker - more than one way to be a good player. I respect whatever works.

                    I'm not sure about the points leagues question since I am in standard roto leagues. But, I run RotoLab on Parallels. It seems to run a little slow but works. I don't have the most recent version of Parallels, I think I'm one behind.
                    I'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.

                      A while ago, Shandler offered a challenge to drafters. He wanted all owners to go in with a list of available players, no dollar values, no stats, and see what happens. When I heard this, I thought to myself, "That's already how I do it." I do have dollar values, but they are merely just so that I can sort my Excel sheets. I don't use them at all at draft, and could delete them without missing them. To be honest, the more I have to look at just distracts me from the important things going on at draft. Do I really need to know exactly what my SB projection are for Morgan and Bourn? Or is it just important for me to know that they are SB guys and I need one?

                      I read and research all off-season and the draft is not a time to learn things about players. The draft is the time for me to draft, and to do that I only need a list of available players and everyone's roster.

                      But then, that's just me. Whatever works for you, I say, go for it.

                        Does anyone have access to the old RotoJunkie Auction Tracker spreadsheets? I have the one for a 12 team league but I'm looking for the 10 and/or 11 team versions. If anyone has it, could you post a link or shoot me a PM? Mucho gracias.

                          Clams -

                          Are you looking for the generic spreadsheet with all rosters listed or the file that had the input screen and a separate tab for the rosters?

                          If it is the latter, PM me your email address and I can send you that, as I created it...the other one, I don't have.

                            The one with one tab that show's the summary/snapshot for all 10 teams and then 10 more tabs where you input the name and salary of each player as they are taken off the board. Is that the one you have? PM sent. Thanks.
