NFBC Message Boards

Originally posted by Glenneration X: No reason to fix what isn't broken. Greg, are there plans to revisit the $1300 NYC Auction this year? I agree; you can always start your own Fantasy Baseball League and put whatever rules in you want. This setup is exactly how it should be; I jumped from page 1 t...

Lindy, Amazing accomplishment; you are truly an all time great and it has been my pleasure knowing you. Missed you this year since I drafted in NYC but looking forward to meeting up next March. Again, congratulations!!! Now I can continue to watch the Rangers getting their ass kicked in Game #3 :-(

I know #11 was not our top choice but ran with it. When Cargo fell to be at #11 I was ecstatic. Coming back we took Ryan Zimmerman, wanting a solid, young and talented 3B. (didn't turn out well). Took Cliff Lee in the 3rd and Marmol in 6th. We took Pence and Victorino in between. At the table we wer...

I like the idea of a 12-team Main Event. We had Double Play live for $550 and I don't recall how many owners drafted LIVE at a venue. I never liked the idea of mixing it with the $350 Online Championship. I don't think it would hurt the 15 team format; that said, I would make it $1000 entry fee and ...

One final comment from me in regards to the Anonymous thread; Until I saw this thread I never knew anyone was playing under "anonymous" I personally don't care. As Dan Semsel stated, I prepare my team and draft as I see fit, not based on what others are doing. I have enough trouble arguing with McCa...

Originally posted by Gekko: quote:Originally posted by Glenneration X: The reason is that I'd bet not too many players will sign up for a league that includes one or more of these players.

BTW, here is another psychiatric diagnosis you fit, it is part of Axis II disorders under the Cluster A classification: Paranoid personality disorder (DSM-IV code 301.0): characterized by irrational suspicions and mistrust of others. Now the other, Narcissism falls under Cluster B: Narcissistic pers...

I believe players who draft using an alias for fear of having their picks copied/stolen, should use a huge pin to deflate their inflated egos. If you're going to draft just use your damn real name. Lets get REAL here.

Originally posted by MGBMARTY:

Matt Kemp legit 1st rounder If Dodgers can get a decent lead off hitter and if Sands can hit in 2 spot, legit 1st rounder and most likely top 10 pick

Marty I have the top 3 picks being something like, Kemp, Braun, Ellsbury

Emmett and Pat all I can do is echo what has been said here. Great job and as we all at CDM know, you guys are talented roto guru's. Congrats.



Lindy, what can I say, nothing but another great year.



Kenny, what can I say to you, the Chipper must have kept you sane

wow, political correctness on the NFBC MB; I didn't realize there was a difference between Hong Kong and Taiwan........ ooppss, was that bad taste?

Originally posted by Gekko: why don't postponed games simply resume wherever they stop? Because the rules of baseball say so.... :D :D An official game in baseball, also sometimes called a regulation game, is a game that has progressed beyond the point at which it can be considered complete if neces...

Originally posted by Gekko: glad i tuned in to watch the last 2 innings of this game (for research purposes). was well worth it. I am sure glad you specified you tuned in for research purposes; we know you let us all know you don't watch baseball. How many times a week do you tune in for the last 2 ...

greg - i'd play in a second chance 50 round "slow draft" done in one night. maybe $250 entry fee 50 rounds in one night? good luck

I don't play NFBBC, but don't they have their own Message Board.



I have a feeling you posting the standings is because you want everyone to see your name on the leader board. Just an FYI Craig, I am an expert in psychology

Way to go Lindy and Gabe

Yes, Sam Fuld with a HR wrapped around the Pesky Pole hit off a Single A pitcher; he is the REAL DEAL

Originally posted by Gekko: $$RED ALERT$$ Bloomer is leading off again and has 3 hits AND ANOTHER SB (and a CS), so HE has the green light to run AND RUN AND RUN. PICKUP OF THE YEAR!!!
