Re: My First Live Auction

I would like to invite you to switch your auction time on the 23rd from the afternoon to the morning. I will be in that one and I want to get even with you from the beat down you gave me in the main event last year. As a further incentive for you to switch, I will give you 50 bucks towards your entr...

A Tale of 2 Different Drafts

I am currently in 2 drafts. One that started on November 17th, and we are in the 20th day of that draft. The other started this past Sunday, December 3rd, and it is the 4th day of that draft. The crazy thing is we are in the 43rd round of both drafts. I am sure we will finish the Dec. 3 draft someti...

Re: Welcome To Our New NFBC Online Draft Room

In the online draft room, I have a gray bar on the top line where it should be showing who is up and who is up next and the general order of the draft. It has shown up correctly there a couple of times so I wonder if it is an issue on my end. I can't seem to get it to show up correctly.

Re: How About A $100,000 Grand Prize In The NFBC Cutline?

I had 29 cutline teams this last year. I love the format. I think once most people try the game they will play again. Faab...........the red-headed step child. What do you do with it? You have to have it. Too big of a difference between January and March without it. The problem with only 2 faabs and...

Re: Rian Lange Wins 2017 NFBC Cutline And $50,000

Congrats to Rian on the win and total dominance in the final weeks. He took the drama out of the final few days as I think he clinched the thing with 4 days to go. The battle at the end was for 2nd. Way to go.

Congrats Potts. I second the request of Zolas for a song at the enshrinement. I have never seen the live performance of 'If I broke the Record.' He is a great guy and a great competitor. He is not an extremely talkative guy but when he does talk, is extremely witty and funny. He is a great ambassado...

Re: Jon Stadtmueller Wins Debut NFBC Cutline Title

Thanks all for the kind words. For those that didn't play this year.....I challenge you to enter just one league. It's kind of like trying to eat one potato chip. It was really addictive. Just find a 2 hour window to draft and look for a league without Robert Sargent or KJ Duke and you have a chance...

Re: Yulieski Gurriel

Apologies to anyone in my leagues. Just noticed my Yulieski Gurriel has not been receiving any stats on at least 4 of my teams that I could find. I have emailed Greg and I assume all the stats will be rerun at some point.

Re: The Fine Arts and Baseball

Dan, Love the posts. All seem like good stories. I was going to guess the wrong answer of Charlie just because it seemed like he was acting from an early age. I will now go with the Redford-Drysdale one. Also, one of my biggest regrets was not answering the call for extras for a movie shot in Dyersv...

Wow Greg that was awesome. Sounds like they could rename the town. I bet nobody ever issued him a parking or speeding ticket in that town. That should be read at his funeral.
