It only takes 2-3 owners to kill a draft. i have a feeling the 2 hour drafts will solve this problem and be a big hit. 8-) In a 2 hour draft we have a couple of guys who time out constantly. The rest go through a break neck pace to keep it moving and it will finish in a reasonable amount of time. T...

P.S. And to anyone reading this who is on the guest list for the party, my PayPal account has been strangely silent tonight. [/quote]

I tried sending to at stats-driven and got Mager. Maybe I will try at MTM-driven.

Excited for this boys. Good news is I think I've mastered the Mayberry Method/Lima Plan hybrid and plan on dominating this league as result. May have more good news to report later this week or even tonight. RotoBaby ETA November 2018. Whoa! Congrats. Missed that chapter of the Mayberry Method.

Dave Vander? Jay Lyons? Satellite Coz? Radio celeb Modica? Rain Main? Stadts?

Mia - just like last year except mouth-a-sotto for spot 15!

I understand I can load up my queue and put auto for two rounds, but it will take them in order that is in my queue, so I could actually end up with (2) QB's with both picks instead of (1) QB and (1) OF...does this not make sense? Aw crap! I forgot to take any QBs in my DC that just finished. Anoth...

I’m ready to destroy all competitors tonight. Sign up and find out what players you should be keying on as draft season rolls along. Simply look at my roster :lol: I am looking forward to it. Already have you penciled in for Greg Bird in the 7th or 8th. I see Todd just added his name to the mix as ...

Congrats. Good to be aligned with the company that is growing / acquiring. Couple questions: * What is the relative size in terms of $ for MFL 10 compared to NFFC or NFBC? * Will the Feb 1 MFL launch date affect the resources dedicated to the current NFBC product? There seems like so much work to do...

Great news! Thank you. Even Mikey will like this one. Wait....winnings.....never mind.

Congrats on the purchase or whatever that was. I just want the old tool of "auto one" back. Is it a real hard thing from a programming perspective to add that back? I think you are missing the boat by not getting that added pronto. it is such a basic and needed tool for these drafts. It increases th...

Ok. I thought you were listing all of the players that qualified from the list.

Back to the timing question - when are the checks going out? Season ended October 1.

Okay, it looks like Fantasy Sports Insurance has finalized the MLB players who missed at least 60 games last year and will be sending out the "winning" checks soon for those owners who paid by check/cash last year and took free insurance on one player. Here is the list of players who qualified: Mad...

My advice - get the Rotoboy Auction DVD series. If you order soon you get the Mikey / Rotoboy bonus Christmas compilation - Prancing Pectorals.

The best part of a MTM FAST DC - 24 hours between his posts.

I remember three from a bit ago but not sure what order these are: 1) St Louis - met Dan Kenyon for the first time - met Kay Adams - the fact that I listed those in that order - something wrong - event was at a place called Pujols 5 or something like that - crammed quarters but quite memorable 2) Ch...

I ask you...... Stewart or Sheraton? Honking taxis or suburban serenity? New York deli or Chicago Deep Dish Pie? Yuengling or Goose Island 312? Shark infested waters or regular Joe home league? MtM and his entourage or a pair of Morgans, a bellowing Coz, a pair of Brinkmans (with own 50" screen), an...

4 hour clock with the proposed 8 hour stoppage is a thing of beauty and was the result of lots of discussion and debate. New software. New company. Let's start this contest with the 4 plus 8 stoppage being the norm! I think even those that want "slow" will see that this is great and perhaps is less ...

Wow. Nice work! Congrats. Thanks for posting in April and again now. I will admit I was one of those that read your initial post in April and said "that team has no chance"....I mean....."good luck". I'm also a fellow Pham dropper.

I like 15. Love Blackmon and Ramirez. Going two stud closers - I like that too. I am starting to think that the best strategy in these stand alone leagues is either to go this route or just punt saves.

Greg - Have to agree with Dan and a few others on this one. I am OK with counting the stats from a 163rd game, but disagree that owners should get to make lineup changes just for that game. If the regular season ended on a Saturday, then presumably there would be no opportunity to change lineups fo...

Five category goodness on the turn.

I love that start! Interested to see what you get at next turn.

Great win Chris. Congrats! Its so awesome to look back at the winning drafts. Roster construction is what makes baseball so different and special. Amazing job.

At this point, the rule will not change for 2018. We have a month to finalize all rules, Schedule of Events and contests and our thinking hasn't changed that an added game is part of the regular season. Hitting titles, home run titles, every individual honor in MLB is also affected by a 163rd game,...

See.....Zola was right. Someone dropped Blackmon's name and look what happens!

A player with the nickname of 'Scooter' hit four in one game You reminded me of a cool little "Scooter" story.... He used to play second base for the Brewers but for fans of the team, Ryan Gennett is not a player’s name they would recognize. That’s because the playful 23-year-old has been going by ...
