NFBC Message Boards

to preface.. i am a very average golfer. but 3 years ago i was playing in a Tiki Barber sponsored charity outing at Baltrusol Golf club in NJ. We were playing the upper course.. Par 3 ; 175 yds.. I hit a 7 iron about 30 ft right of the pin.. the ball made a dead left turn and funneled into the cup.....

Originally posted by Leaderboard Sports: Winning will come down to; A. Getting in the right league, mistakes have to be made for someone to get greater value with his picks in order to separate himself from the pack. B.

I thought it was "LIMA" Low Investment Mound Aces.. guess its same either way!.. usually when i see guys do this, they take at least 1 very good starting pitcher to anchor the staff and than a bunch of middle relivers/closers to fill in. i think its pretty effective.. not sure about if your going af...

Hey guys... i'm in NY league#2, had the 5th pick.. overall i was pleased with my squad.. i think i have decent balance, but unfortunately my team will not be spectacular in any area, so i'm going to need a whole lot of help to be in the hunt: C: myers, schneider (have castro gets eligible) 1B: Duraz...

Nice job by everyone at our draft.. We cruised through it.. I guess i'm pleased overall with my team.. I think i've got decent balance, but unfortunately not really any strengths.. i dont think being "in the middle" in all the categories will be enough to get it done.. I was surprised in our draft h...

Hey Big Fish, im sure you'll get 100 different opinions from everyone who responds to you.. I think in the end, you can be successful from any draft spot if you play your cards right. Sure its nice to be able to lock up one of the top 3 players out there but they'll be plenty left for your 1st 2 pic...

I'll make the trip to NY on sat from central jersey.. see ya there and good luck

VEGAS.. you are absolutely right.. the overall winner would get the full amount and would have the burden of paying the taxes on his/her own.. I would start keeping track of your expenses now and saving all/any receipts you can.. My guess is in addition to any travel expenses and costs associated wi...

I agree with some of the other posters that keeping the overall top prize intact is vital to the NFBC for the years to come..
