NFBC Eligibility Lists For 2009

stache is in reference to your awesome porn stache.

Your still not being consistent. If the rule is 20 games per position then that should be the rule. Why make an exception for anyone? Why have rules if we aren't going to follow them?

NFBC Eligibility Lists For 2009

Just pure logic. Morales 12 games in RF-UT only. Sandoval 17 games at 1st- 1st base elg. WTF? Why not make Sandoval CATCHER eligble while were at it. If the rule is 20 games last season then it should be 20 games not 17. I have to wonder if Sandoval was a 39 yr old journeyman if he'd be 1st elg...I ...

NFBC Eligibility Lists For 2009

Hey stache,

Your dropping the ball on this one. If you going to make Sandoval 1st base eligible then Morales should be an OF'er. You need to be consistent. You still have a few months left to make the right decision.

Hey Greg and Tom, FOR 2009 How about upping the entry fee to $2500 per team and doubling the price pool. $250K to the winner? Any teams over 400 you guys keep all the profit.

Only way the DRAYS will win 80 games is if they play in the PCL.

Regarding the money post. I don't have a problem with them turning a profit. My point is...

How about publishing a matrix of if we hit 500 teams grand prize would be 150k 600 teams 2...

CAN'T CUT LIST

Greg and Tom,

Can you guys please post a "can't cut list."

I would like to avoid the problem we had last year with Barry Bonds (dropped and bid on for $601 faab then reversed).



I think it would help everyone to know which players will not be available via FAAB bids.
