not picking axford in 6 drafts = WINNING!

While Axford may keep his job, the hit by Brandon Phillips to start the inning was smoked and 1 hopped the wall. Braun had no chance to catch it. Then he walked the next guy to bring the tying run to the plate! Then Axford caught a bit of bad luck as he should have gotten 1 out on the soft Rolen gro...

Attie,



I will put 100 on the under for Halladay 14 wins at 20-1. Let me know if you are really putting your money where your mouth is on that one.

Has anyone had this problem?

Thanks Rog, It is all well and good but I didn't get to read that on the message board. I guess I foolishly used common sense that also happened to be the rules supplied by the website. Also the adjustment to re-rank according to dollar value bid in April still has not come to fruition. There is no ...

I have read thru this post: http://nfbcboards.fanball.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=004984;p=1 and still come away terribly confused. The closest explanation was a post from Greg that states: "I have asked the IT team to make sure we have conditional bids now ranked by dollar value,...

Has anyone had this problem?

Well, This could end up costing me money and with the rule as written I should have gotten my target player.



I don't know how to rectify this but obviously if this keeps me from making money it would be a huge era.



This is significant and I am concerned.

Urgent! Last Chance For Honesty and Common sense to prevail!!!

I am OK with that. I was just told that I misread the tone of a certain post. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't mistaken.



Also the overwhelming feel of this post is positive.

Urgent! Last Chance For Honesty and Common sense to prevail!!!

I had a chance to go back over the post of Grady being pulled out of the mix. It looks like there were 73 posts. In reviewing the post I broke it down by: Posts Supporting his being pulled, Posts against his being pulled and benign. Benign were posts offering solutions, making jokes or on the fence ...

Urgent! Last Chance For Honesty and Common sense to prevail!!!

Greg, I am unsure why you are so defensive. My feeling is that if one was to take decision making out of the drops it would lead to no debate.(Unless there is collusion where a case for a player dropped not on the list to be pulled would be OK, however supporting evidence must be presented. In this ...

I would advocate for it because then it would not be a case by case basis judgement call. I think by taking the decision making out of it there would be less scrutiny. Anyway collusion is a monster allegation. I think it is nonsense in this situation and I would have a bone to pick if I was that own...

Urgent! Last Chance For Honesty and Common sense to prevail!!!

Just a quick aside. I agree with Scott Boras that the Grady-Gate is what prompts posts like these. I believe Tom and Greg were wrong to remove him for various reasons given by myself and many many other owners. I agree with Tom that in no way was there any collusion here. We are talking about Marlon...

As we all know there have been serious discussions about issues during the year. I have been out on the front for a couple of them. For issues good and bad I will voice my opinion. In my opinion, and in all fairness this is a non issue. Marlon Byrd is not an elite player. It seems other teams could ...

Craig's reply is on the money. We are not blaming our poor season on it, but we did indentify Stanton as someone to safe our money for to help out putrid HR and RBI numbers.

He was never listed as drafted in the draft results. When teams like myself searched the draft results for his name and the free agents and he didn't appear. It is logical to assume he was not drafted and we would all wait for the FA bidding to begin. My team and perhaps many others saved FA dollars...

While I am glad this saga is over the declaration that he has now been made available does nothing for me.
