NFBC Message Boards

I got 'stuck' with Robinson Cano as the 8th pick but I was kind of hoping he would be gone by then. Is anyone else figuring there will have to be a statistical drop off in Seattle, with less runs scored and less runs to drive in, making him not a top ten player? I just think I would have felt more s...

Damn the Hero of Hoboken - Artie Rastelli- the first virgin grand master of the NFBC is playing in this league!
Too Exciting.
Bet he did not make Ellsbury his first pick last year.

Seeing that Mr. Potts has entered this league, I hereby enlist as well.
Why not go after the master, dethrone the king?
But Pottsy looks like you are entering enough leagues to give back all your winnings.
We should all so suffer.

I will enter this league.
But these threads all have left me very confused.
It looks like there are nine leagues sold out already, so how can I be in League 4?
But I have cashed my checks and I am ready to go fishing for Trout again this year.

What if your first round pick was Ellsbury and second round pick was Cliff Lee?
Would you warn the major league team that has your third round pick to put a bubble around him?

Is there an AA group for the 50 guys in 50 leagues who made Ellsbury a first round pick?

Well, the pool at the Bellagio was very nice.....

Can someone tell me how the insurance works?

The Santiago bids are just out of control.
Some of you guys must work for the government.

Having started with the NFBC in 2004, and then dropping out for a few years for health issues, coming back again this year to Vegas to run into some friends I had not seen in a while was special. While watching Greg give Lindy this year's award, I was thinking someone should be giving Greg one. And ...

What if the whole Shawn Child's Draft Daily and his Sheep Sheat is a Set-Up to sucker you into buying in to theories he know won't work so he can beat you ? What if they are all surreptitious frauds in the inducement enticing you and luring you into a Ponzi Scheme of Fantasy? I mean, is he a champio...

Inquiring Minds Still Want to Know

Is there a way to find out which league wins the title for Slowest of the Slow Drafts?

Can we in League 30 get a trophy. Wait, I think we just hit round 30.

Gotta Go.

I will enter this league for Sunday at 6 pm Eastern

What would really be cool is if we could get some statistics on how long each of the slow drafts took and which was the slowest and which was the fastest.... that would be fun to know... i would like to think in league 30 we are in a race to be the slowest, because, after all, the NFBC is up to abou...

:o And just like that one team owner finds mushroom gravy in each of 43 slow drafts with a round 20-25 pick..... The Magic of Early Drafting Astros Name Myers Closer; Rework Vesting Option By Tim Dierkes [February 28, 2012 at 9:03am CST] The Astros named Brett Myers their closer, manager Brad Mills ...

Redact Not Available night of the 29th. Sorry. Can do 28th or Thursday, are these every night now?

Greg spaketh: 'Drafting early can sometimes be the best time to draft in these national contests:' If this league competes with guys who draft in late March, after lineups are set, and players are cut, wouldn't those drafting later have an advantage? Inquiring minds want to know. And do you get a fr...

by Norm Kent Vice President, National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws First, since this is a fantasy board, I want to say that Ryan Braun owes all of us fantasy players an apology. In his press release today acknowledging the support he had from his family and friends, he forgot to tha...

I am looking forward to this next week. Is it like training for a marathon or a sprint?
Hoping the other owners will try to top the four and a half hour time frame just achieved today...
But I think the guy who took Whitey Ford in Round 50 was making a reach...

Forgive me for I know not what i do....

So one more of these and the fast slow draft and I will be set for the main event...unless we decide to do a slow fast slower draft with midnite trading and daylight savings and early morning picks with KDS preferences on top of snake auctioning :lol: and why does it say i joined in 2011, what happe...

Is there a pizza break?
I am in.......

Well based on the speed everyone wants to go in the slow draft, i am guessing that Greg will wind up doing at least a few more fast 50 round drafts, and this is tempting so......

I said okay to the next slow draft opening. Everyone says I am slow. I will fit right in. My first pick will be Jorge Posada. If he is not available, I want David Eckstein.
Thanks
Norm
