Any game Borowski is in the Red Sox will win, so unless the Indians are ahead by 4 or more runs in the 9th, I can't see them winning a single game....so Boston in 4.....the Rockies and D-Backs are a toss up for me....I'll take Colorado in 7....Colorado will win their games at home, but lose in 6 to ...

Greg/Tom, I would imagine that you likely draw a large # of the players from North Jersey/Long Island/NYC up through Connecticut/Rhode Island/Massachusetts. By moving the event to A.C. you will be adding 2 hours to the commute for this group. I am always looking for a reason to go to A.C. so it does...

I bet it's because he used to be a pitcher and they do not get credit for offense...have them check that Greg

Lance, I have never played in that event and am not aware, what happened?

Greg, just so you know, I printed out the stats for my league yesterday and the stats that showed up this morning were not those, they were actually lower in totals in some cases and the ratios were actually somehow accurate. So it was not just a matter of running last nights games, the stats were j...

I am very concerned now.....my ratio stats accurately changed from yesterday, but all of my counting stats have dropped! The standings in the league reflect this and it is all WRONG. with this kind of $ on the line they better get their act together over at Stats.

Don't worry about it Greg, I was hoping to have STATS hold off on processing the bids until it was fixed and I could bid myself, but no choice no problem at this point......nydownunder, why even post at this point if you were able to secure your free agents. I wouldn't be wasting my Sunday night pos...

nydownunder, maybe you had no problems, but I assure you, Greg, I was not able to do anything between 6:30 and 7pm. The whole system was jammed up.

The live scoring is screwed up as well....It has stats for some players and not others right now

I, unfortunately, have no choice but to place my bids between 6:30 and 7pm each Sunday because of my work schedule..I've been doing it this way for years and have never had an issue yet. The bottom line is the deadline is 7pm and whether we put bids in on Saturday or at 6:59pm on Sunday the site sho...

I have been trying to access the free agents since 6:30pm and at first it would not turn up the page and then when it did, it had all the players as available to be bid on, but when I clicked on a player it would not show anyone from my roster to drop and then it just jammed up again. For the entire...

It's a total mess, it won't let me do anything....

actaully I am in now, but it has rostered players as able to be bid on.....Greg can you look into this

I cannot get in, is it just me?

I think anything that offers more options to players is a great idea. It's ironic because after years of playing several leagues per season I am seriously considering playing only one team next year because of one thing: free agent bidding. For me personally, I am getting tired of spending my Sunday...

I also saw 9pm on the link...7 would cause a conflict for me.

try the ferry out of weehawken, NJ it drops you within walking distance of the Javits, @7 minute trip and 5 bucks each way.

Moving the time up will be a problem for me, I don't get home from work until 6:30pm. I have no problem at all with changing the amount of time for each pick, maybe do 1 minute per pick for the first 30 rounds or so and then go to 1:30 for the back end if it becomes harder....regardless, I am open t...

count me in too...I like anything that doesn't add to more free agency lists....Scott Fleming.

Greg, I registered for the ultimate draft online...I'll do $7,500 if we get enough people.

Sorry Eric, I have been traveling on business and have not had the time to respond to your email. Nonetheless, I am very much in favor of bidding on my draft slot for next years Ultimate....On a side note, nice job on the reliever strategy, it sorta hurts that I failed with it last year and you succ...

I have never understood the statement "not playing the game the way it was intended." The intention of these contests is to win money, why else would we put the time, money and effort that we do. The bottom line is that we have a set of rules and if someone wants to use a strategy within those rules...

I noticed that too Glenn...I remember him walking into the draft and thinking to myself, there's your winner....Nice job thus far David. Same goes for Peden by the way. Do you ever finish out of the money?

Greg, Before any others sign up, can we change the entry fee for this league to $1,000? I posted to see if anyone was adverse to it and 3 of the 5 signed up already have said ok. We just have to check with the other 2 guys. What are your thoughts here, is it cool with you as long as they both agree ...
