Standings

Was there a system blip again last night? No stats or standings for main event or satellite leagues yet.

Standings

It looks like the Main Event standings are updated, but the 7/9 $100 Satellite League is not updated. Did they forget to run the updated stats for all the satellite leagues?

Mid season Rosters

Is anyone else having problems logging in to their team site? I can get onto the main page and I can get on teh message boards, but my password isn't working to log onto my teams. I've had the same password all year for the main event, so I don't know why this is not working now.

July 9th $100 Mid-Season League Draft Order

Thanks Tom and Geoff for hosting the draft last night. Aside from a few hiccups (I think at least five teams had Gil Meche on their roster at some point in the draft!) and the normal computer freeze-up and related issues, things went pretty well. Not quickly mind you (I think we clocked in at about ...

TQ Stats issues

I hope they get the FAAB feature fixed ASAP. I'm in two leagues using them and I don't want to change sites but I guess I will if they can't support the features that they got rid of two weeks ago....

$100 Wednesday Mid-Season League Draft Order

Thanks all - that was fun last night. Good luck to everyone...kinda.



Tom - any update on the rosters? I know they're working on it, just wonder if there's an ETA so we can set lineups?

Tough break for Wily Mo owners

Ortiz will stay at DH most of the time. Pena will platoon with Trot, who is a free agent next year. Pena should have RF all to himself next year.



Ortiz may play some 1B now against RHPs so both Nixon and Pena will also be in the lineup, but I doubt this happens much.

A Soraino - Alert

The guy has a 1yr contract @10 million. So he has to play and has to play well to bag a big FA contract. He's trying to force Was to deal him - the OF thing could be a smoke screen. He prob fears Nats park and that the NL could suppress his #'s going into FA offseason. Maybe he'll wake up and realiz...

Lifetime Standings

not to create a mountain out of a molehill because it's a nice ancillary feature but maybe to get an accurate measure of "lifetime" standings a Team needs to have 1 full season under its belt to be considered. Otherwise every season the newcomers will have a higher standing as long as they're above ...

More drafting rounds!

See comments inserted (followup to post by Goggles Pisano).... If you want a true competition where the [person who sits by his computer all day long and has no life] wins, than you should be able to pickup free agents 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for free. The current system penalizes people like ...

Daily or weekly ??

The compromise seems like a good idea, although only 3 extra moves might not be enough. Maybe 5? Maybe 10? Either way, I agree with the people in favor of an in-between mode of transactions. Having Daily transactions would tend to discriminate against those who have very busy lives/jobs, or maybe ca...

He was picked up in NYC #3. As far as I can tell, he hasn't been called up from the minors yet. Am I missing something? Why was he allowed to be picked up?

How can we see Team Lineups?

When I pull up another team in my league to try to view their roster for this week, the "NFBC Promotional Partners" banner appears in the middle of the page, blocking most of the roster. Can this be fixed, so we know who the other teams are starting and benching each week?

Dyv, Ron didn't post his original comments here. He posted them within the walls of the site that his subscribers pay money to read his (and his staff's) insights. Somebody took it on themselves to cut and paste those comments out of the subscriber site and into this public forum. Where I come from ...

Ron Shandler not the best salesman

This sounds a little like how everyone was all up-in-arms at Billy Packer's comments re: St. Joe's not deserving a #1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Many people act like he was advocating that they should be a #8 or something, when in actuality all he said was that he felt that OSU should have been a ...
