227 Players on the IL- Perhaps a tweak is due

I've been playing here a lot shorter time that most of those who post, but in light of the historic number of players on the IL, and apparently increasing every day, may I be bold enough to suggest that 1 or 2 IL spots be added to the 7 player bench. I can't speak for anyone else, but my bench is ty...

Re: The Countdown to 600

But why are the Yankees v. Phillies cancelled ? Just ridiculous.

Postponements

Impossible to field a competitive team when you have Marlin or Phillies players and were unfortunate to have drafted players from teams who happen to have been playing against them.
It really sucks when all of your players that you own and can’t play are healthy.

Re: OFFICIAL NFBC STATEMENT ON 60-GAME SEASON

Greg, I respect your decision to refund all entry fees , despite my willingness to go forward with the 11 On Line Championship teams that I drafted. Your generosity and thoughtfulness earned you more respect from all those who had already appreciated what you, Tom , and Darik had been doing for all ...

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

If Manfred is truly worried about a virus and a 2nd wave and a 3d wave and a 4th wave, and if you think a virus actually washed out the season, why won’t it wash away season’s to come. Amazing how millions have been protesting and continue to protest 1 inch apart and not a peep about the Wuhan virus...

COZ- Pretty much agree, as you probably could tell from my prior posts. You sound like my 3d youngest son of 4. He just turned 37. We've been talking about the NWO for 15 years. I don't think you're crazy at all.

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

Zero interest in playing in anything less than an 82 game schedule. Not crazy about that, but it'll be the equivalent of a 6 furlong sprint. Less than that has luck being a bigger factor than skill, and I'd have to take a hard pass. Plus, I have to say that being unable to go watch a game at Petco w...

Greg, You know I love you guys, Tom and Darik, and just how much I've enjoyed NFBC. I even still play CDM, where I began playing fantasy baseball. But as I've said, I have absolutely no faith in Manfred to lead these selfish and joyless owners to be doing anything meaningful. I'm still in the "Super...

I actually thought I posted something last night exactly what the last 3 posts have said. A 40-60 game season is worthless to me, as would be an expanded playoff scenario. Never had any faith in Manfred, and amazing how greedy owners and a weak rubber stamp commissioner can destroy the game of baseb...

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

Unfortunately, MLB owners are greedy pigs, with a rubber stamp commissioner. If they REALLY cared about the fans , they wouldn't have dragged their feet like they did, and then retract their initial proposal. The players are willing to play, and are chomping at the bit to do so. Hope your prayers ar...

Re: Is it time to move on to next year... ?? Fu*k Fauci

Losing whatever respect I had for the owners and Manfred (and it wasn't much), completely callous to the fans that helped increase their wealth. Dragging their feet from day 1. Waiting until the end of may to submit a garbage proposal. Exhibiting the antithesis of urgency. On a scale of greed, owner...

Spot on Tom. We'd have baseball a lot sooner if Boras was the commissioner. Doesn't even need a salary.

Re: Fantasy Pro Analyzer

Wouldn't let Fantasy Pros affect how you manage your teams. They were correct about 1 of my league champion teams, but not about my Super team or championship team. If they were such "Pros" why haven't they won any overalls.

Maybe because I have 5 stents in my heart. Perhaps it's having cancer. Could be at 72, I don't know how many fantasy baseball seasons I have left. I believe in free will.

Diamond Challenge

I have to say that Diamond Challenge has been my favorite game; fantasy or otherwise, that I have ever played. I sure hope it doesn't take a lost 2011 season for someone to resurrect this great game with thousands of loyal fans.
