I get an error message that says "the script on this page is causing Mozilla to run slowly. if it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. do you wish to abort the script?" A frien...

NFBC Poker Tournament

Hook, just checking to see if you've still got room in the poker tourney. Also wondering if you've got any info about the tourney structure, i.e. blinds & time limits per round. I'm interested in playing, but not if it's gonna be an "all-in" fest like last year.

Stardust Hotel to face the wrecking ball?!?!

Saw a post on lasvegasadvisor.com that the Stardust will probably be torn down in 2006. Greg, have you gotten any reassurances from Stardust management about their ability to host the draft in March? here's a link to the post about the Stardust facing the wrecking ball. http://www.lasvegasadvisor.co...

Rosters are up...

Agree with UFS on this. Looks like they loaded up the players picked in EVEN rounds in reverse order. Our 1st round and 3rd round picks are correct, but the 2nd and 4th round picks are wrong.



Tom, do we ALL need to contact STATS about this, or can you do it for all of us?

Since you'll probably be carving out your masterpiece during the draft, I would think this is the best way for you to go. ;)

Poker Tournament For NFBC Members In Las Vegas

JoeT, your comment about the $35 entry fee being "ridiculously high" for a $200 buy-in tourney is probably an overstatement. I know the "Bike" is having a tournament in March and the entry fee for their $200 tourney is around $20-25. So, it's all relative. That being said, I think most of us would a...

the link works fine, as long as you remove the "." at the end of "www.fantasysportsmag.com."



Get rid of the last period and you'll be fine.
