NFBC Message Boards

With the daily games taking over the fantasy world, you have a great opportunity to fight off the take over by the Evil Empire. Your thinking is too much in the NFBC box and there are only so many dollars you can bleed off your current cast of characters. It's almost like your stealing from one game...

Enjoying the read here. Shawn, we should set up a new historical draft, maybe for after this season ends. But adjust the starting year to keep it interesting. How about a draft starting in the year of 1980 to present. And maybe hold it to 12 teams. What do you think? We should do something again. I...

This seems a bit shALLOw.

Anyone have a link to the original draft? Are looking for the draft stats or just the pick by pick recap? I placed the whole draft on Facebook - Hall of Fame Fantasy Baseball Draft. Every pick was posted with standings at the end of each round. I have a tough time seeing all the picks when I go the...

I'm still plugging away at this draft recap as I battle the 2015 NFL research. I'm almost as the end of round of four.

Here's an updated link

All-Time Draft - http://fantasy.scout.com/forums/5397-fa ... 532&page=3

This is absolutely fascinating Shawn. In this era of DFS where it is all about today, I so appreciate the historical context that defines baseball for me. Your analysis of the picks relative to categorical balance and positional advantages is a primer in how to play Rotisserie baseball, especially ...

I hated what Yahoo did last year as well.

Day games

Still following. Great read so far. I like how individual seasons by some of baseball's all-time greats are interspersed with incredible seasons by players that I confess to not knowing much, if anything, about. Also cool to see some of the numbers guys put up while I was a big baseball fan but, du...

Up to round three in the recap of this draft if anyone is still interested in following.

8 days in and my Diamond team is down Rios, Yan Gomes, and Coco Crisp.

Crisp didn't even make the ride home from Vegas.

I'm back to live action on this draft for those that were following.

Will the NFBC be suspending MTM for 80 games? Clearly has ties to Balco....

Nice video, maybe a beer sponsor or Coke/Pepsi deal down the road!

The baseball season has kicked off this week and the Masters will be played next week. Over the last week in Vegas in between the two weekends, I did the research on the whole player pool for the Masters due a chance to be Dave Potts for a day. If you are interest in golf and a chance at the million...

Shawn, this is Dan Wydick. I was partnered with Dave Shovein for the All-Time Draft and he kept track of the standings I believe. If you need to have a look at them for your write up I'd bet he still has all that. I'm looking forward to reliving the rest of that draft. I remember in particular the ...

Nice to meet you as well and good luck this season. Maybe next year, you can sell the keys to the Quahogs franchise on E-bay as a draft kit as his information fort is heavily guarded.

I talked to KJ about this earlier. I thought it would be interesting to post maybe a profile of each team by their owner to help possibly show possible buyers your outlook on your auction. I know my post will be much longer than most as I wrote about this auction the next day. Here's my plan and ide...

Thanks...it will be a couple of days before doing the next player. I'm trying to recreate the standings to help fantasy owners see the progression of teams. I'll have the first round recap done soon.

Interesting to see Butler at first, but the power looks in range. The pitching staff looks to have a ton of risk upfront, but enough talent to have winning upside if healthy. Not sure if it went, Wainwright/Kimbrel or the reverse, but one of the picks seemed to be a value. I guess you'll be a Giants...

It's been a few years since we did the Hall of Fame draft. My sentence over at scout.com is to post on the message board 90 times a month during the baseball season. Over the last couple of years, I'vee been think about this draft. I thought it would be interesting to reflect on the draft plus add s...

Maybe his gun is empty....Our Vegas stick HER girl!

Lowy is listed as day to day with elbow soreness after throwing his remote at the TV at a high velocity.

This should really be an auction. $100 for each team with a max bid of $97.

I started calling him Melvin last year. Maybe he got the memo that B.J. sucks.

Well, I guess this is my Q to jump into the fray. I attempted to ask that we put this behind us and the responses were of vindication for the sanctity of those involved and the game itself. Glenn thanks Mr. Childs for his analysis and taking the time that the "Accuser" did not. I take exception to ...
