Plummer gets drafted from Boston in Rule 5

Someone forgot to export

So everyone knows I protected him and others including the 3B I just traded for from Ted who was also taken. I didn’t leave him unprotected but I guess my export didn’t take.

Not much I can do as I fell victim to the rule 5 this year.

All good, you put a real fear into me 1st thing in the morning though. I had to run to my laptop to make sure he was a 2051 guy.

Yea and I exported no less than 3 times yesterday specifically as I messed with my rotation and such.

All good

10 rounds of rule 5 drafting? :s

[shel311]

I told you that for virtual years when you were commish, and I'm pretty sure you never really believed me based on your responses.

[shel311]

But looking at the export tracker, it looks like you were 1 sim behind...which was probably my issues all those years as well.

I saw he was taken and immediately thought "I'll be damned, he did leave him unprotected"
