Ron Shandler is a wimp!

Seems to me that it would be a conflict of interest. It would be like my broker giving me advice and also competing against me in a stock picking competition. His job is to help us beat the competition not become the competition.

Las Vegas League 10

LasVegas10 leading the league standing. Meant to post this in our forum before but I made a mistake and it went into the general league topic. Anyway it is early but given how many of us were 1st timers it is cool for our league to be leading the pack. Since this is a non trade league no reason why ...

Greg - Tom ... whats the Biggest Comeback

In no trade/no keeper leagues that is even more impressive as your not leap frogging the teams making dump trades for next year. Or maybe it is easier to catch the top teams because they have no one to dump trade with but still to move through everyone like that is something I've never seen in 18 ye...

Which MB participant is responsible for this?

Shandler was also very high on Cantu and that quote could have come directly from HQ instead of GG. I think most people are missing the boat when they blame the DevilRays for this move. The game is about winning baseball and having Upton playing 2nd base and not Cantu will give them the best chance ...

Hey were leading the pack

Who would have thunk that our little combo Vegas/Tampa phone league would be atop the league standings. I'm not sure if I'm proud were at the top or bummed I'm in such a tough league :cool:



We should enjoy it while we can as I'm sure the winds will change.

NFBC Draft Day Saga

Las Vegas 10, 1st year player, been playing for 20 years in numerous formats. Was worried about keeping up with the draft since I was on my own and had never worked on a 1 minute time clock. It was an amazing time, had great fun, my brain was in overdrive and I'm just glad I had prepared myself. The...

Furcal goes down

Dodger Radio is reporting that he will only miss one week so were looking at a moderate sprain with nothing serious. In 2003 he also sprained his ankle in March and had a stellar season. Potential crisis appears to have been averted. Dodger fans and bagholders of Furcal rejoice.

NFBC In 2008

Good point about our existing leagues. Your right I wouldn't give up my existing league for the NFBC. I knew it was to easy to be true. Back to the 15th. You can't draft on Easter weekend, while for many it won't be a problem you would take a huge hit to your numbers from anyone with a family. It is...

NFBC In 2008

March 29th, no FAAB 1st week. Seems so simple that it must not be.

Furcal goes down

Left ankle sprain when Repko unaware that he was in a meaningless ST game takes out the Dodger MVP with a slide after Furcal made an over the shoulder catch. Xrays being taken.



If Bay hadn't dropped to me in 3rd round he'd be on my roster. Luck is so much a part of this game.

Las Vegas League 10

Just to put everyone at ease I'll be taking a World Champion Cardinal with that 1st pick. Not sure which one cause that Eckstein guy would give me a serious dugout presence which I understand is crucial to this kind of format.
