Or, to put it another way, he has a team in 50% of the Online leagues.

I cringe whenever I see an "Anonymous" show up in a league I've signed up for. The greater sin, though, is NFBC listing a pseudonym instead of the player's real name, which has happened twice in the few leagues I've played. I don't understand why Greg and Tom go along with this, as it really gives t...

Yes. As long as you don't remove a player from your lineup at any time, the multiple points will remain even if you move a player to a different position. Good luck all. Greg, I'm not seeing the ability to move a player to a different position. The edit button allows me only to remove a player, not...

I bow to George Sumner's season-long DC dominance, but I just noticed that Nos. 2 and 3 in the overall DC are from the same league. Odds of that happening are something like 36,000-to-1, right?

Shawn Childs took a shot at this sort of question a couple of weeks ago. When he talks, I listen.

With the DC deadline in sight, It looks like there will be about a 10 percent bump above last year's record in the number of teams competing for the overall. Can we anticipate the prize pool going up, too?

Greg, I'm prepping for the Team draft, but the Draft Room link still takes me to the same landing page with the same choices -- Flash or HTML. Is that as it should be?

Best way to settle that question would be to auction off the slots.

Props to Rick, Ken and Roy, who actually wanted the middle spots.

I've likened KJ'S contract league as being chess to checkers. This format reminded me of pool or billiards. Each selection made in having the next shot in mind. To me, the first round is not the most important round as it is in most drafts. The third round in setting up last picks and even forced p...

I'll take the Twins hitters.

Nice to see the return of the LIMA.

Good morning, folks. Sorry I turned into a pumpkin last night.

Athletics pitching.

Ozzie is pleased.

Dodgers hitters

Cardinals pitching

Nice pick. That's who I had going after the Nats and Dodger pitchers.

Another question: Live draft or slow draft (even better, fast/slow)? If it's the latter, I'm in.

Two of the Top 6 finishers in last year's Main Event played that contest for the first time, which gives hope to everyone in that 15-team format. But we also had some good veterans finishing well and one of them was Steve Fiore, who had the best shot at the $75,000 bonus in 2014. Steve was in the T...

Mark me down for the 22nd. I've already registered on the site. Thanks, Andy.

I'll vote with my dollars in favor of this third DC model. Plus, you need at least one guppy in the mix.

That owner with the #9 slot and found Kershaw still sitting there must've thought Santa Claus finally came through for him.

Bagwell was the stronger candidate than Biggio -- 1 MVP, 2 more yrs in top three, 3 more in top 10, Rookie of Year -- but he faces a couple of real problems: The switch from 15 years to 10 on the ballot really hurts him (those numbers will look better over time), and the East Coast voters don't resp...

Todd, I'd do that 30-player/FAAB league, if it comes together. Lemme know.

Geez, this thread got busy in a hurry.

I'll make the 23rd work. Mark me down as confirmed.
