NFBC Message Boards

I do not have many Marlins or Phillies, but my team is doing so well, I am drifting around with these other winners....



"Wayne, have you met Folty, Mikolas, LeClerc, and Hosmer?"

Early MVP candidate.

"Austin Barnes will start at catcher for the Dodgers in their Opening Day game on Thursday night against the Giants. Will Smith will be the primary catcher this season in Los Angeles, but manager Dave Roberts doesn't want to overwork the youngster." Overwork him? It is the first freakin' game of the...

Wayne, is that a rocket in the air, or Vince Velasquez rising 100 spots in ADP.

I actually like that one, but at the end of the day Vince will throw like Elton. So to take him...

We are SOLD OUT of the NFBC Sprint Main Event at 38 leagues and 570 teams. THANKS to everyone who participated and good luck. Updated prizes will be posted soon. Absolutely freaking amazing. I wonder if you, Tom, Darik and team (not sure who the team is but didn't want to leave anyone out) have sle...

Let's see...sell my whale bone corset stock and buy up Givens...better check with KJ Duke to see if that is a wise move!

This guy?

Thsnks, Dan! An embarrasment of riches. In my three drafts, I have a #3 and two #1's. I will have Acuna in at least one, but have to think about maybe Yelich or Betts for one to "diversify"....good problem to have! https://64.media.tumblr.com/9b47aa1db1b4fa50f95aad319c4bddae/tumblr_ndm70l1ikL1s0y84k...

Hint: For the NFBC Sprint Main Events Thursday, July 23 3 pm ET, Ronald Acuna, Jr. will not be available for you in the first round! :D Big surprise, right? Looks like (another) tough league. Looking forward to it! https://i0.wp.com/prospects365.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/ronald-acuna-jr.gif?res...

Amazing. In such a short time. Not blowing smoke up your skirt, but when MLB finally announced the "sprint" season, I thought you would be lucky to get 405 or 420 signups.

Congratulations!

I'm looking forward to competing against you guys.

Alan, the pleasure will be all mine!

Now you are talking....still, there is always that first reaction that makes you feel that you are an integral part of an Abbott & Costello routine "Who's on first?" (OK, valid question for Atlanta) "What's on second?" (Angels) "I don't know is on third." (Texas) "I don't give a darn!" (Shortstop......

But the good news, Dan, is that we get to go head-to-head again (8:00 pm ET on the 23rd). Of course, there are some other no-names in the league like Schroter, Smith, Butler, Schechter, Waggener, Childs/Ferrari and Cha (who I already have in two of my three leagues...yeah!!!). Gonna be interesting.....

Great stuff, Dan!

Charles Edward Daniels (October 28, 1936 – July 6, 2020)[5] was an American singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist[6] known for his contributions to Southern rock, country, and bluegrass music. He was best known for his number-one country hit "The Devil Went Down to Georgia". And a great Ameri...

I am in at either of the price points. My only concern is I do not want a Roger Maris-style asterisk after my name when I win the overall this year! https://media.tenor.com/images/2b7eb33fa4b931a20cb33dbe70e447c4/tenor.gif Wayne, this is Fantasy Baseball, not Fantasy Island. An asterisk next your n...

OK, I'll play the contrarian: I think that everything should just be pro-rated, like the player salaries, at roughly 37%. So an entry fee of $625 leads to a grand prize of $55,000. If that lower fee generates a higher number entries you can upwardly adjust the payoffs as soon as the season begins. ...

Keeping the faith.

Plus 1.

Not trying to pour salt in any wounds, but it is about draft time in Vegas. This would have been the 17th straight year I would have been somewhere to draft live (Once in Chicago, once in New York, twice in Florida, twelve in Vegas with #17 going to be lucky 13 in Nevada). I'm still a husband (same ...

We are not adjusting the Main Event at this point, even though we don't know how many people will stay in it or how many people will add to them. I think we have 535 entries now and so our hope is that there's still time to make this work. Greg, I am in. Whenever baseball starts games, I will go an...

Plus one...

I think that it is obvious that there will be some sort of delay to the start of the MLB season, but there WILL be a season. It sucks that it may be abbreviated, but this may come with the territory no matter what in other extenuating circumstances that could come up. We all know that going in whet...

Draft/auctions as scheduled.

If start of season is delayed, it’s delayed. Less time for players to get hurt, more time for injured players to come back. Build this into your plan.

All this “what if” bullshit is wasted noise

Plus one...

Chinese Basketball Association, which had previously suspended play, is in the process of resuming play in early April so the epicenter is ramping up their sports. Here there are rational steps that can be taken. I have absolute confidence in Greg and Tom and Darik and team. We will know more today ...
