2006 Auction - 2 Legit 2 Quit

The 2006 Auction held at the Ramada was another glorious experience. We found out that another Kitchen was entering the world, that Sammy Sosa's value is linked to Barbie's demise, that most of us drafted some of the same players we had on our roster 11 years ago, and that $50 in Amsterdam can get you.....well, you had to be there!!

Unfortunately we couldn't get Mike to collude with us and stick Tony with a crappy roster. The quick triggered Mike wasted no time and took Cabrera before most of us had really woken up.

I don't know why but it seemed like money was scarcer this year. Seemed like most teams already had less than $100 after about 30 minutes. I think Nate went about 3 hours between picks. But if Chad Tracy hits 40 HRs this year (ala 2005 Ensberg), I'm going to be pissed.
