Has the NFBC/NFFC ever done a "double". Get 14-16 owners, do a combined baseball/football contest? FAAB leagues, non DC, 30 round BB, 20 round FB. Buy in maybe $1K, draft BB in March, FB in August. Pay $2K to each league/sport winner, divide the remaining $$ amongst the top 3 in the overall. Maybe Greg will give us a break on the servicecharge. 8-) The overall champ is simple, the higher you place in each league, more points..one point per place. I can think of a lot that play both sports...If there's concerns about a specific date, get a partner...could be fun

Here's the latest update on the new Draft Room: Darik, Tom and I tested it again today and we are very close to having this perfect. They added a new feature that allows you to move a player to a new qualified position on your Roster during the draft, which I thought was pretty cool. So if the computer moves Marwin Gonzalez to 3B and you later want to move him to OF or 2B, you can do that. Just a little added touch to help you during slow drafts and even regular drafts.

Anyway, that got me to thinking. We fine-tuned the Position Eligibility today and I think we have this right. However, let me know if there were any September callups of question. I know Francisco Mejia was one questionable callup and unfortunately he is UT-only to start the season because he played 4 games at DH and 2 games at Catcher with the Indians. Now the Indians are talking about moving him to third base.

Anyway, if there are any other players who may have played 2 games at 2B and 2 games at SS in September who I need to make a ruling on for eligibility? If so, post here and we'll get it done. Thanks all.

We want to make sure we have every player correctly listed before drafting begins. Thanks.
