Might as well add another crusty guy to the mix. I'll take the last spot (so long as we don't start before Monday). Marc P

You got it, Marc, you asshole. Great having you on board! 8-) Greg/Tom, can we set this league up to go by Monday? What do we need to do?

No worries, the hurtin' Asshole, Robert Zidonik will take your spot. Still waiting on instructions and a Monday start time.

Greg/Tom - I want to second Mike's request. Will one of you guys have a chance to register this league so we can start drafting tomorrow afternoon? Alternatively, do we need to sign-up for this one? Thanks.

Just to let everybody know...
Tom wants to start this league tomorrow too.
He needs Steve Saunders to e-mail him or sign up as he is not registered with the NFBC.
Bryan has gotten in touch with Mr. Saunders with that info.
So far, Tom has not heard from Mr. Saunders and he has not registered....

No worries. Always a pleasure. Looking forward to drafting with such a fine bunch of Assholes. :mrgreen:

Final count from yesterday's NFBC League of Extraordinary Assholes Fast DC: 12.5 rounds in 11.5 hours with very little facilitation on my part. :D Now this is the way to do it! 8-) These assholes sure can fast draft. :mrgreen:

Your reputation is enough to keep the troops jumping, Mike.

This is going to ruin me for conventional DC drafts. :)

Another great day in the books. 11.5 more rounds in a day with a great group of committed assholes making it all work to near perfection. And this was a "slow" day as compared to yesterday. :mrgreen: 8-) This is the way they should all go down. Nothing else like it. :D

This sounds like a fantastic league. When you get through 24 rounds in 2 days, that's cruising. Not everyone can go at that pace, but it's great to know there are dozens of NFBC owners who want to do that.

Again, we can set up a league like this at any time. Obviously it helps to have one facilitator like Mikey or KJ pushing things along, but if anyone wants to form a faster DC league just let us know and we'll help. We have the 4-Hour DC on Registration for just this reason, but if they form on the Message Board and need a special signup just let us know. We'll jump in and help.

Good job all and enjoy.

The Draft Champions Express Leagues can be found here:

http://nfbc.stats.com/baseball/contest/ ... sp?id=1526

We don't have any DC Express Leagues planned for December and our first scheduled one isn't until Jan. 22nd. We've never started them earlier than that, but if folks want one on the books earlier than that we can easily add one. Adding draft dates is very simple, but the key is filling them. Hope that helps.

Day Two and half in the books and wrapped up for the evening at 35.5 rounds. 8-) Great draft with great guys and some damn good newbies as well. May polish this one off tomorrow with a strong day! :D
