Lightfoot was someone I wouldn't have minded as a teammate for Billy Two Eagles, but I don't think he would have been my next pick

I can take picks as well if people need/want

I actually think I'll get at least one more guy on my list. Possibly 2.

I think he's the most serviceable undercard babyface who was left.

The Bass/Bassarab joint agreement is still not correctly noted.

I was prepared to pass on Rufus in favor of Samu and then Samu went right before I picked and at that point I took it as a sign from god that I was supposed to take Rufus. There is actually one more person left, who I really don't have any idea what I would do with, but I feel compelled to take him with my next pick if he isn't gone by then. I need someone to save me from myself to use goc speak

One of those two guys is actually pretty good.

How dare you scout my territory for talent with discussing it with me ahead of time.

Yeah if you spend some time on YouTube, you will find at least a few more guys with some value.

I love Barrabas. In the early 80s PR footage I've seen he was basically the world's best JTTS. Really a super entertaining undercard worker. I was considering drafting him and putting him under a mask.

I think people are going to regret my participation in this almost immediately.

1983 Tentative Rosters
Melvin is one of the coolest people I've ever met through wrestling. I honestly want to draft him but it feels too obscure.

I thought about drafting Burrhead Jones because I know for a fact he was working tiny Carolina outlaw groups, but it seemed a weird fight to have.

Totally agree. I'll grant the major stars left are older, but some of them could be main event players in the right places.

Jackson really wasn't taken that early in the grand scheme of things. You also have to recognize that different promotions have different needs, and certain guys have limited value in certain territories. There are actually a few guys left on the board who could easily be main eventers in several territories without even building them up through booking. That said of those guys, there are very few who would have all that much value to me in Portland without building them up through booking, and if I'm going to have to put in the effort I'd just as soon do it for someone like Gerry Morrow or Billy Two Eagles who fit the feel of the promotion better. Now having said all of that did we ever get a ruling on Billy Joe Travis?

I would really encourage everyone to try and make it at least two more rounds. I think there are enough people with at least some value left for each person to get at least two more picks with some utility.

Guess I was wrong about a breakneck pace today.

Draft discussion, analysis and trash talk
If someone doesn't draft after getting lapped should we appoint someone to draft on their behalf after the 10 hour window is up?

Let the record show that Ben Bassarab and Bobby Bass are equal parts Toronto and Portland.

Didn't pick that guy goc, but I may very well take him if he some how falls until my next pick. I wanted Rufus all along and have been sitting there staring at him on the board waiting for someone to pick him. I wanted to take him with my last two or three picks but I was legitimately trying to see if his home promotion wanted to take a stab at him. That didn't happen, so I am happy to bring him in. In terms of star power, and being a guy who could always get over anywhere, there really aren't many people on the board better. He has a rep of being an awful worker, but I actually enjoy his act god help me. I'm glad I got him especially this late, though I hated lapping someone. I honestly wouldn't have done it, but there is no way in hell I'll be up by nine and I don't want to be lapped myself.
