I felt like Porky Pig on that reply...Only took me three times to get the typos out!!!!!



LOL!

LAS VEGAS 4

How about half a point is the difference between first and third place. Totally nerve wracking!



4th and 5th place are 7 points out.



Craziness!!!



Good luck down the stretch!!! You heading to Vegas for Football??? I am on my on Wednesday!!!

Lance, A great point re drinking. I have been doing auction drafts since 1983 and still get stressed. I always give the competition more credit than they deserve at being well prepared, thus I stress. Since the inception of the NFBC I have also enjoyed the snake draft. Does it make me a disturbed pe...

Oh my god where do I start? This thread is simply outstanding. One thing about baseball is the game is pretty much played the same way whether you are 8 yrs old or 38 yrs old. What the heck is a rookie mistake???? Suddenly a player in the majors forgets how to play baseball??????? Pitchers walks 2 h...

Absolutely great stuff. I've participated in the NFBC every year except the first one and played against the so-called best of the best in LABR (NL)---where I met Greg---it is just so hard to compare the two since they are both so different. I must admit that after a bad NFBC season last year I star...

Thx for info...



I may have jumped the gun, but, alas TQ Stats has been fine so far...



We will see after our first week of FAAB.



Steve

We have used TQ Stats the past 3 years with last year being a disaster...Do STATS.INC offer their services for non NFBC leagues?



Any other suggestions????



thanks,

Steve

ps-TQ Stats looks like another disaster this season...

Poor Henry Tang has to sit next to me in 2 drafts (NL $650 Auction). No worries...I promise to shower at least once next weekend!!!



Steve

Can't wait to draft!!!



See you all at the draft table!!!



Good luck. Looks like quite a league.

Pitchers and catchers reporting soon! Got my first mag in the mail! For my bday my wife got me the latest Ron Shandler's Forecaster. I DIDN'T EVEN ASK FOR IT!!! After 10+ years of marriage she has gone all in!!! Of course I bring her with me to Vegas in March and Sept for baseball and football. Stev...

How great would that be to do this for a living? The rewards for winning just take too long to provide a steady cash flow. Unlike poker where you can win more frequently. BTW: I just love reading the posts on this board! From GG, to Shawn, to Lance, etc etc. I am going to make a better effort to joi...

Can't wait!!!!!



Steve (& Alex) Pletkin

I am such a big fan of having back to back picks. I went #1 first and then 15-14-13 with the next 3.



Always nice to shore up 2 positions at a time.



Can't wait!



Steve Pletkin

Heck tell me the day of the draft! Anytime earlier is just gravy. The draft order doesn't make anyones team win, the owner of the team does that. In my opinion with the # of sharks and pros involved with the NFBC/NFFC you better be extremely prepared or you are just making an expensive donation (tha...

How come the so-called experts always seem to get the easy way out. Why a 12-team draft and not a 14-team draft? 2 less teams makes it so much easier. When I competed in LABR a few years back really the only expert who put up a fight was Greg Ambrosius. I find NFFC and NFBC have far tougher competit...

I either wanted to be near the top or the bottom of the draft to double up picks. Last year I won my league picking #15. KDS worked out ok as I picked #11. But had my top choices as 1,2,3,15,14,13. I try to load up early with as many HR/SB dudes as possible with one stud SP. I wanted Chase Utley at ...

I am in for $250.



Steve Pletkin

I am in for $250.



Does the top 3 win prize money? What is the breakdown etc...



can't wait!



Steve

Greg,



Count me in...After participating in LABR from a few years ago obviously I don't mind having my crappy picks published!



Sounds like fun and yes I am having baseball withdrawals.
