I'll donate $1000 to Greg's favorite charity to have his honest to God's take on this. Unreal how so many blow this guy.

Go ahead and kick me off for that comment. My honest to God's take is that only every one of you 800+ people who emailed me between 1 pm and 10 pm on Monday during those hectic hours know who you wanted to start. You and John Dean who are calling me out as if I watched each move have no idea how hard Monday was last week. I forwarded each email to the proper people to get starting lineups correct because the system took every starting lineup back to where they were before FAAB run.

So pay $1,000 to the NFBC. That is my favorite charity.

I hope everyone started the players they had before FAAB run. I believe everyone did and if not, that's between them and God. I'm not high enough to make that karma go away.

I'm trying to improve everything now. I'm working on today and hopefully you guys will to with your own teams.

I'm a newbie with NFBC and don't know the person involved here, but it seems to me that the wrong decision was made that Monday.

For a business to put it's product "integrity" back on the customers is totally unfair to the customer base. If the lottery system went down after the numbers were picked, would they ask everyone to email them what lottery numbers they had?

I understand and applaud the quick thinking under the circumstances, but the reality is that whatever decision was made should have put the full responsibility of integrity on the company and not the customer.

I was miffed when I was told that I couldn't plug in a computer at my live draft in AC (rules not clear IMO), only to see another life drafter plugged in and sitting against the outlet wall for half the draft.

whatever rules are established, they need to be clear and consistent (and applied fairly to everyone).

Gekko -- I'd really like to let this go, but as long as you keep posting inaccurate or stupid stuff, I feel compelled to respond.

I for one, and most--if not all--of everyone else who has been questioning your motives, do not have an "axe to grind" or an "agenda."

Your comment once again is just an attempt to deflect attention from the facts.

Making a bigger ass of himself by the post. He had a chance to eliminate two of the three things, between poor ethics, a liar, and a coward. He opted to remain all three. Says a lot about his character. We all make mistakes from time to time. Most of us deal with them like a man and try to grow.

I think everyone has said their peace in this thread. As Greg said, it's time to move forward. Hopefully everyone will enjoy the rest of the season but I think it's time bring this thread to a close.
