Originally posted by Gekko: this year really does remind me of my first couple years in the nfbc. no matter how much i tried to improve my team during the year, it was like running in quicksand. the motto (at least for me) seems, shrik the offseason prep, pay the price. tough pill to swallow. the is...

Was just thinking that today, Rob!



It would probably be a big enough worm to hook me back next year.

Originally posted by Big Fish: As a Zimmerman owner, I am troubled by what I saw today. All 3 runs should have been unearned. Ankiel is awful in center and I can't see how he is going to last. Morse in left is as well. Espinosa is going to make a lot of TWIB highlights, you know, the funny highlight...

Originally posted by RoundTrippers: thanks god defensive stats dont count...the kid can rake! :D If he keeps fielding like today, I don't think they can justify him playing, even if he was hitting .400. I really don't know about his hitting abilities, just saw him in the field, and it reminded me of...

If you have him, he could be on borrowed time.



He is absoutely ATROCIOUS in the field.



1 error

2 botched balls



They might bring in one of those cartoon presidents to play 2nd.....can't be worse.

Nothing but FANTASTIC comments coming out about the NFBC.



The new sheriffs (Greg and Tom) are definitely back running things THEIR WAY, and with the backing of STATS, the sky is the limit!



I can't wait for football season!

Although I am not playing baseball this year, I have been reading the boards and have heard nothing but great feedback to how well the live events were. It got me thinking.....what makes a contest so great?? This is what I came up with.... 1) THE LEAD DOGS Obviously your event is going to flourish i...

Very cool stuff.....I'm not even in baseball and I liked it!



The new shirts make up for the Tom/Kay switch, and the move from Fanball to STATS is INVALUABLE!!!!



Can't wait for football! :

Congratulations to both Steve and Shawn.



When I started playing fantasy baseball 3 years ago, these were the two names that most everyone talked about when it came to "fantasy baseball success".



Good to see them both getting their "due".

Not doing any baseball this year, but since the football boards are dead awaiting the switchover, I was trolling around here. There are a couple ironic items here with you Greg. 1) My stepson just got his license about a week ago, and yes.....our car insurance went up about 2x. Unlike your daughter,...

That is one hell of a season, Mark!!!



Congratulations!



PS. Why would I EVER play baseball again when I have ZERO chance against you, Jupinka, etc.??

Congratulations Steve!



In my limited stint in baseball, you have proven to be one of (if not) the best players each year!!!



Don't spend it all in one place, and tell your wife you only won 50K!!
