Re: SOLD OUT: NFBC Platinum League In Las Vegas

i know the bidding is finally resolved, but it wouldn't it be better is we had KDS to determine the slots to vote on. for example, i have the second choice, but i nominate pick # 15 to be bid on. number three chooses pick # 5 to be bid on and so on. Not only do we bid money for our draft order, but ...

I also had the same problems over the weekend and thought it was my own doing. Glad to know that it is something that can probably be fixed

Thank you Greg and Tom!!!

As I lay here in a near coma from celebrating after my final draft last nite, I just want to thank Greg and Tom for another first class weekend. Like I have always said, nobody does it better! It was also fun catching up with a lot of you guys who unfortunately, I only get to see once a year. Good l...

Re: DiDonato, JJ Cooper On STATS Fantasy Advantage

Thanks Jason

It's nice to see I was able to convert you over the past few years to at least pick Yankees. NowI know you are secretly rooting for them . even against your beloved Sox!

Re: NFBC Hall of Fame Members Update

Thanks for the mention Mike. It's appreciated as I seem to have fallen off the face of the earth in these circles lately. I'm not sure exactly how many leagues I have entered, but I believe I have won 2 main event titles , including the overall in 2006. I have also won 2 Ultimate titles and have fin...

Re: NFBC Rules Changes Discussion For 2013

I have suggested the following change for many years and I think it does deserve some consideration: Any day of the week, you should have the ability to activate a player who was on the DL, regardless if they were a hitter or pitcher. The way it is now, If a player is scheduled to come off the DL on...

Re: When a win isnt a win

I understand the rules and the rationale of why it was done. Im just surprised that this official scorer took it upon himself to rule this way because other relievers really get hammered and are still credited with the win because they were the pitcher when the go ahead rubs were scored. Its usually...

When a win isnt a win

Has anyone ever seen an official scoring decision like what happened in the Oakland/Baltimore game last nite? Ryan Cook blew a save in the 8th inning by giving up one run on three hits in 1/3 of an inning. The only out recorded was Thome being thrown out at the plate. Oakland subsequently scored 6 r...

Dealing With Anonymous Owners In 2012

A lot has been debated about anonymity in the drafts so far with good reasons for and against. My opinion is ....what does it hurt by having this option? Those who think others may "copy" their drafts are somewhat protected and those others should not care. You still are drafting against 11 or 14 ot...

Remember New Pitchers Rule For Last 2 Weeks Of NFBC Season

Quote: Glenn Lowy Glenneration X Actually with a bit more thought, the problem with this suggestion is that it returns the problem of the player who is day to day for a week but is never placed on the DL. To me, that's slow torture. That will always be a problem no matter what. At worst you would mi...

Remember New Pitchers Rule For Last 2 Weeks Of NFBC Season

The answer is simple.....go back to once weekly moves ,BUT allow us to activate and disable all players as they happen . These moves could be made on a daily basis all year long whenever a player is placed on OR activated from the DL. Starting SEPT 1 if players are not put on the dl, have a rule whe...

I know what the time frame is for us to be able to make dl moves, but since we have the ability to change our line up up until game time on a friday why cant a pitcher who goes on the dl anytime prior to the friday games be replaced. I remember some sort of rationale behind the thursday deadline, bu...

Is it possible to actually gain points ( or a half point) in wins , even if you dont get any on the night? My brain doesnt seem to think so but it may be possible I guess. Can some one help me?
