NFBC Message Boards

I wasn't aware that a managing partner could just step down and walk away from debts. Of course I'm not a lawyer so who knows If there's a group forming out there I'd like to join up..if only to get some kind of response. I don't like the idea of just letting it pass.

kinda think if you did the above it would sort of negate a big reason for regression. inuries are cooked in. sort of like the "over" on 20 homers by utely bp's projection is 32 gs 239 ip 14w. theres nothing "cooked in" that stat line.

and to make the bet accurate halladay should have to pitch at or near his bp projected totals..32 gs and 239 ip. no free injury cashes

original odds listed were 19-1. dont overpay!

since every hitter in the book is good for about 15 bombs the starting pitcher win totals sound about right.

the above statement is Dead On: 7% Somewhat Right: 23% Clueless: 45%



Wont be read: 78% on BP.com: 1%

hiya, please add me to the feb7th 1000 ..thanks, Jaime Baird

haven't been around for as long as most but based strictly on results Jupinka and Childs are sure fire HOFers based on 7 years of winning leagues and placing highly overall. in comparison Sebro has a 3 year tack record of winning leagues and placing highly overall so in my mind he'd be on the ballot...

in the past the fanball timeline for cheques has been stated as 6-8 weeks after you claim your prize online.

Originally posted by Ratbeer: I sent a message to Fanball support and was told that Fanpoints are not awarded for NFBC games. If you were given enough to matter convert them quick!! I'm guessing they meant no points awarded for finishing top 3 in your league like they are for the fanball challange c...

Originally posted by Ando: Pure and simple, fantasy baseball has nothing to do about mimicking running a MLB team. The goal is to accumulate as many points possible in a rotisserie style format. fantasy sports has everything to do with mimicking the real life sport. probably 99% of all fantasy sport...

just my 2 faab but i dont see how the vickery system would be relevant in nfbc where every team has a fixed budget that they have to spend or they lose it with no return. vickery would help you save face by not overbidding and give you more faab dollars to spend in the future. however everyone else ...

if fantasy baseball is to emulate running a real mlb team then it should be made impossible to field a team without starting pitchers. either with sp slots (not in favour) or a min. innings pitched that forces you to have at least 4-5 starters. or maybe all utility slots on the offensive side- i wan...

what a great response from CC. Don't know him but definately a class act.

Not to open up a can of worms but how could that $856 for Volquez NOT be a mis-typed bid. Its insane. It would be insane in a 24-team league.



-Craig it would be resonable bid with a 100 000 FAAB budget though.

Dumb seems a little harsh but....Edinson Volquez $856 runnerup $19...in a Live DP lg at that.

Originally posted by Gekko: Tom - All of this stuff is making me sick. I know it's made a lot of other players sick too. May 10th and we still don't have winning bids in descending order. previously illegal free agents are now legal. bids for EY2 were voided. Derek Holland was added to the FAAB pool...

[/QUOTE]PACO THYME Ike Davis $1



He was picked up week 1 and probably dropped week 2. [/QB][/quote]
i dont have the date but its something to do with when he was sent down then?

as an example how was Ike Davis added this week in classic las vegas weekend 2 lg4? i wasnt able to spot him in that leagues draft results, but i'm going blind checking the results and maybe i missed him

The real issue is that the integrity of the NFBC has been muddied with the events of the first FAAB run. If you allow one person to make a change after a game has started you have to allow everyone the same opportunity (much like the 830 deadline this week). I'll guess that there are over 100 differ...

Originally posted by Scott Boras: Before this gets out of hand, the situation does get thicker. If team stats are showing correctly, Mark does have teams in which he did start Padilla last week and he was left in. If he was gaming the system, why wouldn't he have benched Padilla on all of his teams?...
