The main event is an overwhelming success and I wouldn't recommend it at a lower price point. I thought that's what the satellite leagues are for and I understand they don't have an overall prize fund. Kudos for innovating and offering more formats but be careful of over saturation. Best of luck to ...

Mark congrats on a remarkable history of success in this great game we all love. I always enjoyed our conversations over a few drinks before and after drafts and your passion always came shining through. It’s nice to see a good guy get the recognition they deserve. Best of luck going forward and hop...

everything used to be so easy. now I have no clue whats going on. I'm all for progress but this is a total cluster. HELP

Congrats Tom. Having attended live drafts in NYC for a few years I could see the difficulty in organizing and overseeing the entire event. There are lots of guys to keep happy with many different requests and opinions. You handled it like a champ. You deserve this honor and I'm very happy for you. A...

Whenever money is involved there will always be a few wise guys who will try to game the system. It seems to me that all 12 teams would have to be complicit to pull this off. No back up bids on studs and the the same owner with the winning bids week after week is way more than a coincidence. Thank g...

Always entertaining Mark. Keep it up...very funny.

I've been in leagues with Eric and I am again this year and I'll say he's an excellent player. I feel that multiple entries should be allowed for the ME or any other league. You put your money up and you play. He's won an overall and that speaks to his skill set here. I e-mailed him after he won the...

Can't do 8 without Yogi the great. One of the best baseball men of all-time and 10 rings to boot. "Nobody goes to that restaurant anymore...it's to crowded."

I'm glad it all worked out Alan. You are a great dad and handled that situation like a champ. NYC is such a blast and seeing everyone and hanging out is awesome. Doing these drafts live and making good friends is a real treat. All the best to you and all guys and PLAY BALL.

Looking forward to it Andy. See ya tomorrow.

Bump, c'mon boys and girls...let's fill this and start drafting this weekend.

Haha ok Tom, I owe you a drink in New York. Nice job as always.

Okay, thanks to Hal Goldstein for starting this thread and reviving the 4-Hour $150 Draft Champions League. This is Greg A and I've hijacked his initial post. Wiped it out even!! :lol: We agree with his assessment that there is demand for a quicker NFBC $150 Draft Champions format where owners are w...

Sign me up Tom. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Andy's plan looks good to me. It seems that is the only possible solution for guys that want to draft all three on Friday. Hopefully this all gets worked out soon.

Tom, it seems to me that the 10 o'clock auction is what's impacting the draft times for the two supers. I'm guessing the 10 o'clock would fill without the guys wanting to draft in the two supers. What about 11 or noon for the super auction and 5 or 6 for the MTM. That would work and still give the g...

What's up boys? Why not do the $2500 auction at 11 or noon and the MTM at 6 on Friday. I know that overlaps with the 10 o'clock auction but I think both would fill. Problem solved.

Enjoy it while it lasts Alan. These are the Mets after all.

Good luck Tom and best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Jeff, as always great to draft with you and enjoyed sitting between you and Mike Edelman. As you pointed out there's nothing like drafting an auction live and competing against some of the best players anywhere. It's always very interesting to see the different strategies that guys use and to take p...

Let me add my two cents in support of Andy. One of the truly great guys I've had the pleasure to meet in NYC. I really enjoyed doing a couple of auctions last month and Andy's passion and knowledge was the reason all of this took place. Great job my friend and looking forward to seeing u and all the...

I've been playing fantasy baseball since the 80's and the NFBC is head and shoulders above any other venue. One guy comes on here and starts insulting our friends we close ranks like a family would do. The NFBC is a family and I'm proud to be part of it. Thanks Greg and Tom for all you do.

I don't know who this Yellow fellow is but he likes to insult people behind a computer keyboard. He talks about ROI like this is a business endeavor. 0-5 in DC's and he's knocking HOF-ers and anyone else who will respond to him. Like Jeff said come to the live events and show us who you are and how ...

Enjoy it Greg. My boys are 25 and 24 and watching them grow up to the fine young men they are has been a true blessing. The 1st time they beat me in arm wrestling was tough to take but satisfying nonetheless. We all must work out for our own benefit but father time passes us by. Pass the torch to yo...

It might take longer to fill this league than it does to draft it. Cmon guys...filler up.
