Greg,

Will the NFBC being hosting drafts in Vegas on both March 18/20 and March 25/27 weekends or just the latter? I always love when it coincides with the First weekend of March Madness.

Welcome to Stevieland

Perfect. Thanks Greg!

Pivoting to a different question for next year, with MLB coming out with their schedule, are we looking at March 19-22 as the big drafting weekend in Vegas next year? Will there be a 2nd weekend?

I faab until the end and I try to scrap for every last point. So I do look at the standings and try to get points that are attainable, if that means I'm getting them from a league leader, so be it. I want to try and finish as high as possible ever year. Tough to shut off grinding when you've been do...

The early start to the season, also gets drafts in Vegas on the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament, which also coincides with St. Patrick's Day! Something very nostalgic about this, Can't wait!

For me, I'd love to be in Vegas for the Opening Weekend of March Madness and Live NFBC Drafts. There is something nostalgic about that setup. I understand that the Sweet Sixteen Weekend would likely be the Big Vegas Weekend since it is closer to the Regular season opener. But for me, there is someth...

March Madness 1st weekend in 2018, is this still in the plans for the First Weekend of the NFBC? What a glorious weekend to be in Vegas, it would be great to be back there again.

.364/108/42/108/30 Nice line That is Mike Trout should he match each month with his April showing. While I can show similar numbers for others, Trout has the greatest chance to maintain those numbers. I think Doughboys is trying to say this is what Mike Trout is "on pace" for, but just couldn't bri...

Great Stuff, Dan.

Brian, You're relatively new to the NFBC. We are seasoned vets for the most part. Your videos are amusing and you do have a certain quality and likeability that is enjoyable. That said, it is doubtful that you will goad many of us to playing in leagues that we haven't planned for. You will get some...

All is again right with the world, Doughboys is back!!!

Typically there have only been a few mentions in Fantasy Camp about Doughboys. Normally during snack time at camp or to ask Zola a numerish question. I think the fans of Fantasy Camp, would certainly enjoy a Doughboys based Fantasy Camp. Don't be shy, let it fly.

Doughboys must have been team 15 in that one...

I love the idea of drafting on March Madness Opening Weekend, makes me feel a bit nostalgic to the early days of the NFBC, when men were men and Dan Kenyon rolled into the Jockey Club with a burner phone.

Is Thames going to be 1st base eligible or outfield eligible?

KJ,

Thanks for keeping these up to date.

On to 2017...

Greg is the NFBC planning on being in Vegas for two weekends? What are we looking at 3/23-3/26 & 3/30-4/2?

Congrats Rob. Always love to see a Charter Member put it altogether for a magical season!

I've grown accustom to the 10:00pm deadline and I like it. It's Goldilocks to me, not too early, not too late, but just right...

Dan,

Step One: Get your ass back to Vegas next year. I'll contact the Jockey Club and have them make up your suite. Same as always? Closest to the vending machine with a view of the alley?

Step Two: The rest will take care of itself...

Roger,

This is great great news! News like this makes me smile. Onward and upward Mia!

What about adding 5, put no cuts allowed. So the most you can add in any one period is 5 guys. It will also make the free agent pool more manageable, in that there won't be the need to scan the cuts each time for other people's trash that turns into your gold.

Ok, Bear with me on this scenario. The Indians lose Yan Gomes to injury in early April. My 2nd catcher is Mike Zunino, who is back in Tacoma. I also have Carlos Santana on my roster, the Indians have been using Carlos Santana at catcher off and on. On May 11th, Carlos has 8 games at catcher, I have ...
