Saving You Time On Sunday With FAAB

forgot to mention. This second screen would obviously not have any stats attached, just the players names.

Saving You Time On Sunday With FAAB

Great news Greg. Anything that speeds up FAAB is worth its weight in gold for me. I have a request. Can you set up a screen that shows all available free agents by position in "one" viewable screen. This way there is no scrolling up and down one position at a time. I know people may want to keep tha...

Live Chat With Greg Ambrosius Friday At 3 ET

Greg, since you guys have worked so hard these past years to build your brand in this space, combined with the resources of Fanball now, has there been any thoughts of doing something creative (dream job) to counter the competition and stop them from gaining traction?

$$Gekko Saturday_Chat!!

Hey Mark. - with two main event teams, first 10 rounds, will you try to get two different rosters in case injuries strike your key guys? Or will you go after the same guys in both, if available, because you value having certain players? - along the same lines...do you employ the same approach in bot...

This is great! Having the top industry guys play turns it up a notch. Ron and Mark in the same league would be something to watch for sure. Make it happen Greg!

Don't beat yourself up Greg. You're in a tough spot because you're running a business that in order for growth requires change and you will never make everyone happy. I'm really excited by what has leaked thus far and I must say that you are on a level by yourself when it comes to customer service. ...

Possible NFBC Main Event-Online Championship Incentive

Greg, any thoughts on increasing the combined standings prize in lieu of the car bonus? Currently, I am not planning on playing the online league because of time issues on Sundays, but if there were more incentive thrown at playing both contests, I would likely change my mind and probably buy multip...

fantasyland I think not!

For what it's worth. I was involved in the Fantasyland project before they selected Jed. And during the entire process I never had to interview with Ron, nor was he ever mentioned by the producers as having anything to do with whom they ended up choosing. I don't think it's right to attack the guy f...

I haven't been this excited to watch a guy pitch in quite some time....no bets, but my call is 6 1/3 ip he k's 11 leaves with a lead and lyon coughs it up, thus starting the scherzer to closer madness ;)

I appreciate the different methods he takes to do things is all...look at the Orlando lgs. he posts that someone will win Scherzer for 5 bucks and he ends up going for 762/772 in those lgs....two of the highest bids in the main event.

I'll give Mark one thing...he's smart in how he approaches things...none of us never know whether the info he pushes is his truthful opinion or purposeful misinformation to get a result he's aiming for. Perfect example was yesterdays FAAB. He set it up IMO to show people 3 hot targets when in realit...

Maybe you're right Mark, I may be a bit too optimistic, but he looked so nasty vs. houston that I just envision the likes of Howard, Burrell, Jenkins, Ruiz, Feliz, Moyer getting wrung up multiple times tonight. It will all depend on how many innings Melvin lets him go I guess.

davis does not stand a prayer of taking back his spot in the rotation after max k's two dozen this week. based on the bid sizes, I assume most of us watched him pitch vs. houston last week. he was unreal, the hous. hitters looked foolish against him. imo, the only way he busts is if he gets hurt. lo...

Davis will get his spot back initially, but there is no way he keeps Scherzer out of the rotation after a few starts. I also agree, he's got closer written all over him. Either way, he's gonna be hugely valuable for the rest of the season.

Will Gekko go Santana_in_the_1st?

I'd say no if he gets traded...the spotlight of playing in a big market, the new contract extension he'd have in place, the run support he'd have would help his win totals but he would be pitching a different game leading 5-0 after 3 innings rather than 1-0 after 6 in Minn.....Conversly, if he stays...

My order is the 2nd one down on the list....I feel pretty much the same as you Perry, in that I would like one of the top 3 players and then if I can't get one of them I like sitting in the middle of each round. I do not like to ever start positional runs, but I don't want to be shut out either, so ...
