Re: Florida Man ruins 2020 MLB Season (RIP)

While I was holding out hope MLB could successfully pull this off, the first week has been nothing short of a fucking joke. Here we are spending thousands of dollars playing while taking ZEROS in our lineups because a whole MLB team is locked down, and of course the teams they were supposed to be pl...

Game should count, its part of MLB season. There is strategy especially in a short season to plan your last FAAB around possible tiebreaker games and possible pitchers who might pitch them.
THIS. Make it happen, Greg. Thank you

Re: NFBC Sprint Draft Results

Let's start a new thread now that our Sprint drafts are starting and try to keep everyone up to speed. Has the player pool changed so much that players are now going higher or lower in drafts? Are there any new surprises in these drafts? Let's post the results on this thread, starting with Wednesda...

Re: OFFICIAL NFBC STATEMENT ABOUT START OF SEASON

#MLBPA has informed #MLB players will report on July 1st for July 24 Opening Day. 60 Game season in 66 days. They are both still working on finalizing safety and health protocols which quite frankly will be something both parties will continue to improve on going forward.

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

Number of games aside, the fact MLB still doesn't have a plan in place to keep the players as safe as possible is INSANE. THIS. They had months to finalize a plan and backup plans. None of this is new. IF sports are going to happen in 2020 (and in the future), they have to expect players to test po...

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: 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.
