Who thought it was a good idea to invite Lindy into the league? Doughboys? :lol: :lol:

Re: “trend setter” drafts

I see we’re having the premature draft this weekend Are we having any other October drafts? I vaguely remember having a few last year The NFBC won't officially host any drafts until the 2020 site is live. We hope to have the draft room ready to go right after the World Series. Pretty sure the Prema...

Re: Is It Time To Discuss IP Minimums Going Forward?

I think 1,000/1,100 is the sweet spot and I would roll the 1,100 to all high stakes leagues

I’m fine with the tradition of wins even though my Cubs’ crappy bullpen cost me 2-3 from Hendricks :lol:

WTF ???

This is horrible! Where can I get accurate live scoring categories stats & standings ? It shouldn't be this hard.

Re: Live Scoring?

The standings in Live scoring need to reflect the live YTD standings. I'm pretty sure no one cares how their stats, stack up against their league on that given day. Amen. I have no idea where to look an what I am looking at. My live “YTD” totals are different from the supposed season total and some...

Re: Set Lineup Changes For 2019

This is an absolute cluster fuck It took me 30 changes to align a DC, mostly because I could not just move Shaw from 2B to CI. To make that happen I had to move Shaw to MI, Tatis from UT to MI, Caratini to CI, Shaw to CI, and finally replace Caratini at UT. Add in the changes needed to order my benc...

Re: MGM Park Las Vegas: Let's Hear The Feedback

Rooms were fine for what I paid. No desk but a good table for homework. No fridge but not a big deal. Loved the proximity to the drafts and getting to/from the Strip was much more convenient. For draft purposes, I much prefer the Park over Bellagio. No problems finding outlets to charge the laptop. ...

Re: NFBC Random Slot Generator BLOWS

There's no problem here. I like getting my draft slot a week prior. The MtM ironhead KDS is alright for a change of pace - What I DON'T like is having to dump my gear in a spot and then having to move it again... I'm with Steve on this...it's painful watching him gather up his 6 clipboards and movi...

Re: My excuse for not cashing in my 5 leagues last year

Haven’t watched for a few seasons but will watch this one. I used to be a hard core Survivor junkie and thought Russell played the best games I’d seen.

Watching MTM would have been a hoot. Thought about applying but timing never worked.

Re: Live Chat With Lord Zola RIGHT NOW!!

Assuming no Bryce in WAS in 2019, Soto in round 3, are you taking the plunge?

Which Reds OF provides the most value vs their ADP, Winker, Puig, Kemp, or Schebler?

Which rookie bat not named Vlad has the most impact?

Hell, if I have to carry people they better be skinny little dudes like Potts or Jecewicz. Sorry, Sack...you're walking, bro!

You know I'm in for the party, MTM. The amusement at hearing your delusions of grandeur every year is worth the price of admission.
