Will there be an NFBC season?

Post by Fourslot40 » Sat Jan 08, 2011 2:53 am

I understand that Greg and Tom may not be able to discuss the plans of a potential break-up however, with only two months away from drafting and with many customers either already involved in drafts or having made plans in other cities for March, I think it's the right thing to do for someone to let us know whether there will be a season or not?



I'm hopeful that there will be a season and like many are waiting this out before deciding which direction to go in.



Greg, Tom and Geoff have been awesome. If this does not work out, I certainly hope that they hop right back on their feet. Either way, thanks guys and I'll remain optimistic like many.

Fourslot, I'm planning as if there will be. Now I don't know if it will be called the NFBC, CFBN, BFNC or what have you, but I've been reading Gregg's posts very carefully since this news broke for any inference that the party's over. I haven't seen any hint that he's ready to abandon the game, business, community, that he developed and nurtured. I take that as a good sign. Opportunities in other area's of the industry may present themselves (Gregg's a pretty marketable guy in my opinion), and he finds an offer to good to pass on. It's possible, but if that happens we will be directed to other viable venue's and the NFBC community will move more or less intact in that direction. That's the worst case scenario. I'm pretty sure that I'm still going to have to manage that crappy SCL team that I just drafted. Bet the over and make your reservations at Bellagio, if Vegas is your destination, because the guaranteed room rate on both weekends expires after tomorrow. Just my opinion

Hope for the best. Plan for the worst. Sounds like we might know a lot more after Monday.



I was looking forward to more slow drafts and/or an auction league this year, but if it doesn't happen there are other options available. Hopefully Greg stays in charge somehow, but if he doesn't, we need the top guys here (DOUGBOYS, Childs, Jupinka, etc) to get their email and phone information at the ready so that people can be contacted to play this game elsewhere.
