You can't have NFBC message boards without conspiracy theories. That would be like lemonade without water.

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

COZ, I assume all Treasury debt will be cancelled, gold confiscated and the new global digital currency gets dropped into place overnight as the cabal is shut down? Will the NFBC automatically convert account balances to the new currency? Also assuming new health protocols will include MLB players t...

FYI -cancelled online MLB.TV package today. In spite of what I've seen posted online, refunded with no pushback from customer service and took about 2 minutes. I'll buy back in at 100% prorated. Maybe. I just did the same. Extraordinarily annoyed at MLB and the only thing I know to do is to vote wi...

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

I’m seeing these debates and I agree with the idea that we don’t know whose going to get TJ and we don’t know whose not going to play so there was no advantage. The only fair argument I see is people didn’t sign up for 60 game season, ok so whatever let’s say that’s the case then those same people ...

Re: Option Three

Including playoff games would be fun and finally make them relevant for fantasy, and if you said undrafted leagues would do this I wouldn't argue.

But I wouldn't go so far to include already drafted lges.

One of many reasons to not play these out We also don't know who will go down with TJ or pull a lat. KJ these are two completely different things and you know it Sorta, but not really.

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

You can have a season or not, and you can have an NFBC to come back to or not. I know which side I'm on. so, if MLB announced the season was only going to be 12 games, should leagues already drafted proceed? Hell, no. that means there is a line in the sand for each of us. I'd like to be around 100 ...

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

Would you really draft differently for each of these scenarios? I would, YES. Personally, I would go as low as 80 games (half the season) before it starts becoming too much of a joke. NFFC rules for 2020 also sets half the season as theIr threshold for having a fantasy season and prize vesting. Mos...

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

Honestly what are we waiting for? Are we really going to play out already drafted leagues with a 65 game schedule at most? In 3 private high stakes leagues I'm in, a large majority was on board with cancelling if under 1/2 a season. But in the past couple days 42 of 45 teams in those leagues decide...

Looking more and more like there will be no Baseball season. It is Time to consider refunding money or figuring out a way to allow us players to get our money back or leaving it on account for next year. Even a shortened season of 70-80 games is not what we signed up for or paid for, let alone what...

Time to discuss the elephant in the room that is early drafts before the ChinaVirus took hold of our lives. The fact is all early-drafters drafted according to a set of rules based upon a 163-game season with minimum IP & position eligibility requirements set accordingly. Further, a 162 game MLB sc...

Well hotel rates in Vegas thru at least April are now about what they were in year one for the NFBC, if not lower. The hotel industry is getting crushed.
