My fantasy football league is full of people who still come to the draft with a ream of paper and magazines. They also drink heavily during the draft. This combination leads to mass chaos towards the end of the draft as people forget who is on their team and who was taken.

This c#.Net WPF application displays the team on the clock and their players, the best available players overall and by position, overall selections made and the last ten picks.
