Re: ROI

I'm reading a lot of smack talk for someone who went 0-for-5 in the DC's last year.

Re: Let's See Some Cool NFBC Team Names

This topic jogged a funny memory. Back in the late 90s I did the CDM leagues and I used a team name that a friend of mine used once in his football league: The Fingerless Proctologists. Needless to say about two weeks into the season someone complained and CDM called me to change it. Staying on that...

Well now that explains it. :roll: Hope to have you in next year. Thought I saw you down for NY this year as well. Definitely. The Hilton in midtown has done me well. Passed Level 1 and 2 of the CFA there and won the $2500 Auction last year. Fun fact... they filmed the last scene of Michael Clayton ...

Mike just to let you know... The guy who I've referred to (I will not name names) has very, very serious issues. After about a week-plus of this crap we've had to deal with, on a dime he recanted and apologized to the league earlier this evening and will now use autopick. I honestly have no idea if ...

You guys passed us. We are on round 42 and the sociopath refuses to make a pick. We are six hours into his choice and he continues to argue in the chat room.

Re: FAST Draft Champions Leagues Now On Registration

Great to see this in motion, Greg! From a programming sense I still suggest for 2016 that all DC's go to four hours except for an 8 hour window where each owner can choose if they wish to have the larger window when they go to sleep. I love faster DC's but I'd like to go to sleep at night knowing my...

Ok I will usually not post too much about such things but this one deserves it. I can understand if somebody's at work or driving and can't check for awhile.

Re: Let's Look At 2014 NFBC League Champion Rosters

Success in fantasy baseball typically comes down to two factors: how you do in your draft/auction (primarily a "skill" skillset) and the performance of the players you've taken (more luck). Yes, trades and free agents factor into this but by-and-large it's those two factors. Based on my time in the ...

Re: Signs you could have a sociopath in your DC league

LOL. Bingo. Love the guy who's all business and "not there to make any friends"-types. They never chat, never acknowledge their slowness, never apologize for lengthy delays, and always have a quirky drafting system to prove how much smarter they are than everyone else. It's the cold-blooded, I'm-ju...

Signs you could have a sociopath in your DC league

1. Announces early on in the chat room he's "not there to make friends" 2. Gets into juvenile arguments with multiple owners... 2b. ...to the point where the administrator (presumably Tom) has to step in 3. Purposely does not use auto-pick 4. Announces to everyone - on more than one occasion - he wi...

Re: FREE Insurance For Mains If You Pay By Check

As a revenue stream, STATS should think about expanding this.

I'd be willing to pay for what is in essence a CDS contract on baseball players so I can hedge if I so chose.

Although I'm not in NYC that weekend in the future it would be great if the MTM Super and the $2500 Auction be scheduled at different times as I'd like to be in both. Just an FYI for 2016.

Re: Good Luck This Week All On The East Coast

I was driving on the NJ Turnpike right around when the game ended last year. Within minutes of the Super Bowl ending last year it started snowing but we only got an inch or two.
