Just to spice things up a bit as we wind down towards the World Cup, how about a Soccer Forum Fantasy Draft? Its quite simple, we'll each pick a team to represent and take turns picking players. Here are the rules: Picks: Teams will pick in a snake order with 8 hours between picks. If you think you will miss your pick, send a few selections to someone to make your pick for you. If 8 hours passes without a pick being made, all future picks will be skipped until that team makes a selection. If your pick is skipped, you may make those picks at any time. The draft order will be randomly selected using this tool. Rosters: Your squad must include 18 players, two of which will be keepers. The rest is up to you. At the conclusion of the draft, you will be requested to submit a starting 11, bench, and any details about playing style you'd like. Voting: At the conclusion of the draft, the teams will participate in a tournament to determine a winner. Votes and discussion can be done in a general game thread. In the event of a tie, votes from participants will be counted as away goals. If there is still a tie, a recount of votes that are justified with thoughtful posts will be counted as away goals. If there is still a tie, the team with the higher draft position will win.

Got to get a few more people. Anyone want to recruit? I've lost track of who the regulars are as its usually just the four of us going back and forth. Is rocketeer around/down for this? How about the guys from the Timbers board?

1 at least. With 8 we could do a group stage depending on how fast it goes, or just hop right into the tournament.
