NFBC Message Boards

Same.

I think one of the bigger reasons more Pluses didn't fill was the schedule. If I remember correctly the vast majority, if not all of these, were scheduled during the live weeks when the Main Event and the high dollar ancillary leagues were being held. I think it's been proven that when the given the...

Dan, I think it's only natural to have those thoughts this time of year, even for a Diehard like yourself. The baseball season is a long one, and fantasy baseball by the end of the season can sometimes feel like a grind. I often feel the same way after 26 weeks of games & boxscores, lineups & FAAB, ...

No surprise. Year after year Jon proves to be one of the best players in the NFBC no matter the format. Figures he'd do great in this one as well. Congrats Stadts, see you next year in Sin City.

Just wait 'til he gets hot.

Anything less than 1000 is giving him away.

It's unfortunate is that these runs are being charges as earned.

They all looked like clean rips to me.

Dear God!! An Astros and Bieber fan??? I don't know which is worse. :shock: All I do know is it appears that psychiatric services have recently been offered elsewhere on these boards for much less psychotic behavior. Seek help my friend, seek help. :mrgreen: All kidding aside, I'm glad you're doing ...

Don't you mean Chris Shelton?

Glen you wondered how some owners could be naive enough to assume that the FAAB pool locks for Cutline at a different time than FAAB in other nfbc leagues. In my case it's because Cutline is the only nfbc league I play that has FAAB. I play in several DC's every year here, but none of the other FAA...

For a second, I had to re-look who was writing this blog, almost thought it was Lowry. How can a Brave fan take so many METS?!?!?! Blasphemy! Great to see you Wayne, this HAS to be the year one of the bloggers wins it all! LOL.... anyone who was trying to win was taking so many METS! :mrgreen: Glad...

Thanks Glenneration x for your response. It's an odd situation. Unlike Gekko's Venable example, Mazara's ineligibility was discovered by the NFBC before the FAAB was run. I can't believe the computer deemed him ineligible on its own without some manual intervention. So that leaves the question why ...

Glenneration X, if you don't mind sharing. Did you bid on Mazara in the Cutline. If not, was it based solely on your interpretation of the rules? Thanks. I don't mind sharing at all lrr. I actually did bid on Mazara when I saw him in the pool, and I believe it was a competitive bid. However when th...

Calling on NFBC veterans. In years past, if a player was wrongly in the FAAB pool, the ruling was he shouldn't have been in there but everyone got the same chance to bid on him so no harm no foul. Do you ever remember FAAB results being released which said a player was ineligible? Incorrect. In yea...

Mazara was ineligible as per the rules in place for the contest and it's clearly stated in the rules. Copied and pasted from the rules page: The player pool is deemed closed of new free agents each Sunday of the weekly FAAB deadline at 7 AM ET and a player must have played at least 1 MLB game to be ...

Why wasn't bids on Mazara processed .. I don't get it, I guess we just make u the rules as we go Not eligible because he didnt play his first MLB game until after Sunday at 7am. That is the rule for all FAAB. It was a bit confusing since he was in the FAAB pools. It's actually right in the rules. C...

Well Greg, looks like you'd have about a half a league filled already if you just counted everyone who's posted in this thread with interest in a Las Vegas draft on Friday night. Unfortunately, it appears it would have to be a $500 Main Super Auction Cutline 12-teamer Bare Knuckles event to appease ...

I personally was thinking about another Main or Auction that night if available and we could get it filled.
I'd be up for almost anything though.

You're starting to figure this out all out, Philly. Glenn will smile widely on his Saturday morning. No doubt Matt! Philly, Wayne, and Russ are doing an absolutely great job running with this thread this year. It feels good to be able to sit back and just enjoy it this season instead of having to p...

I believe she has multi-position eligibility.

I love when someone just gets it.

The guest list has been updated once again, and I am happy to announce that Mario Maglieri himself will be joining us for the festivities that evening. Who is Mario Maglieri you may ask? I haven't the slightest fucking idea. He's just a newbie who jumped into one or two of my fast DC's and fell in ...

Great stuff!! My favorite part..... Mia - "Number 9 is Roger Martin" Rog - "AKA?"

Mikey, this sounds like a blast. Nice job setting this all up for the rest of us. A few minor requests though..... 1 - Any chance of getting Eddie Van Halen and Dave Potts together for a dueling guitars version of Eruption? 2 - Please tell me that KJ's hot tub will NOT be part of the festivities (un...
