Fantasy Camp

[DOUGHBOYS]

DOUGHBOYS:
Hello!
Hello!
Where did everybody go?
Ah! There's a sign on the door.

'DOUGHBOYS-
We've all gone over to the Dark Side or have other business to attend. Principal Ambrosius has declared late August and early September as 'Dark Side Days'.
See you when we get back-
Campers

Man, I knew the Dark Side was popular this time of year, but this is ridiculous!
What do I do to pass some time?

Look, there's Winston's Empire's desk.
Geez, it's been a long time since I've seen him. I think I'll take a look inside.
What is this bottle?
Hmmm, it says,
'Happy Pills'.
Each fan gaining admittance to todays game at Wrigley Field is required to take two of these before taking their seat'.
NO WONDER CUBS FANS ARE PERFECTLY HAPPY WITH LOSING!

Heck, might as well look through a few more desks. Nothing else to do.

Here's Gekko's desk, this should be interesting.
Hmmm, a receipt for the MLB year long package and a Forecaster.
That Dog!

GlennerationX, hmm, wonder what we'll find in here....
A jets pennant, a Mets program...
Geez, a menagerie of losing NY teams.
Here's a book on etiquette.
Mets, Jets, and etiquette.
E-T-S, ET'S, ET'S, ET'S!

Here's mine.
I wonder if....
YES!
That bag of Doritos is still there!
I thought I had a Ho-Ho too?
Damn.

Here's KJ's....
Hmmm, a form to join the Mike Trout fan club....
Guess I know who KJ is taking number one next year....
He has more pictures of dogs in here than family!
I guess he adhere's to the old adage on why dogs are different than people.
They'll shit on your lawn, but never on you.
People are the other way around.

Here's Quahogs...
A book. Oh, its a trilogy.
'The art of winning'
'How to keep on Winning'
and 'How to make others think they have a chance against you when Winning'.
Wow.
Oh, and here's an autographed picture of Charlie Sheen.
Enscribed, "WINNING. DUH!!!'

Here's CC's Desperadoes-
Holy Cow! Look at all these books!
'The Art of bowling left handed' by Earl Anthony
'The Art of Bowling right handed' by Don Carter
'Baseball Encyclopedia', 'Forecaster', 'Analyzing Analysts'
'My Life Story' by Tim McCarver
Wow.
That is way too many books. When does he have the time to write?
Listening to McCarver or reading McCarver, I wonder which is worse?
Either way, CC is displaying the patience needed to be a fantasy player.

I'll look in ToddZ's desk-
A note-
7298076983320986798234679847598203904764018425
Holy Cow!
All numbers!

I'll look in Bjoak's desk-
There's a note.
DOUGHBOYS.
I'm translating the note in ToddZ's desk , and it goes for me too!

DOUGHBOYS-
STAY OUT OF MY DESK!

[Edwards Kings]

DOUGHBOYS:

Here's mine.
I wonder if....
YES!
That bag of Doritos is still there!
I thought I had a Ho-Ho too?
Damn.

I know you left something out that is in your desk! Your prized possessions: The "Ann-Margret" barbie doll and the coffee table book "Ann-Margret Olsson - My Life if Pictures and the Story of the Man of My Dreams I Never Got to Meet!"

[DOUGHBOYS]

I do have a VHS copy of 'Viva Las Vegas'!

[KJ Duke]

HA !!! You know me well.

Now back to f***ball.

Thanks for the mention Dough! I know, I have been missing in action for sure from the boards and baseball in general! Family & Work have me by the jewels right now to say the least. I hope all my pals in the NFBC family are well and you all finish the season in the $! Go Cubs

[Greg Ambrosius]

Principal Ambrosius has been buried in football the last 4 weeks and spending 12 days in Las Vegas has worn me down. But there are worse places to be than two weeks at the Bellagio!!

Although football is definitely the Dark Side to many of you, it's part of our growing business here. We finished football with over 4,100 teams, including a record total of 1,872 NFFC Online Championship teams, 756 Draft Champions teams (Slow Draft version), and 672 Main Event teams. Every area of our business grew in the NFFC this year and hopefully some of those first-time Dark Siders will be joining our baseball event for the first time in 2013.

The next Dark Side is a basketball contest, which will start in October. We skipped a basketball season last year because of the NBA Lockout, but the National Fantasy Basketball Championship will reappear shortly. I can hardly wait to see what the Fantasy Campers think of that?

But more importantly, we have never taken our eyes off of baseball and we look forward to a great, great finish here. Chad has a chance for history -- or Dave Potts -- and we've alerted the insurance company throughout to keep watch of this accomplishment. We're all set for quick payouts this year and an early arrival of the 2013 site. We are already planning for NFBC 2013 -- which will be our 10th anniversary season -- and eager to get you folks drafting online earlier than ever. We're on it!!

Good luck to all the rest of the way and kudos to those of you who excel in multiple sports. We have one more on the way.

[Glenneration X]

Greg, looking forward to seeing what you have planned for Hoops this year.

And Doughy.... have you noticed where the J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets are in the standings right now?
Always a fan of Fantasy Camp and all you bring to the boards. Thanks as always Bud.

[DOUGHBOYS]

Time to look in on the Kiddo's......

Hells Satans:
Today's the day!
D-DAY!

Quahogs:
Dollar Day!

Hells Satans:
For you!
Do you ever lose?

Quahogs:
Billy Nelson beat me in tiddlywinks in second grade.
Pissed me off.
Damn Billy Nelson had my number!

Glennerationx:
Makes me want to join a 'Billy Nelson Fan Club'

Quahogs:
Don't you have enough problems with the Mets and Jets Fan clubs?


NorCalAtlFan:
As soon as the that clock on the wall strikes Five we learn our fates.
But that damned clock has failed all year.

KJ Duke:
I thought we were getting a new clock?
The best clock in the world. It's supposed to give the local time and overall times everywhere!
A Wonder clock!

Money:
Pricipal Ambrosius said that we weren't getting the clock and that this clock is now improved.

KJ Duke:
It sure looks the same!

BK Mets:
Nah!
It has a new face.
It only stops late at night sometimes now.

Rog:
Six months of work and it all comes down to this!

Walla Walla:
I just wanna tell you guys, I love hanging out with you guys.
I don't have a horse in this race, but I'm excited for all of you.

Likewhat17:
Ok, how does this work?

DOUGHBOYS:
We are just seconds away from finding out how we did.
It is all high tech.
As soon as the wall clock strikes five, it signals our results to be read to us electronically.

Likewhat17:
Cool!

Everybody:
10!
9!
8!
7!
6!
5!
4!
3!
2!
WHAT?

NorCalAtlFan:
The freakin' clock stopped!

KJ Duke:
Aaaargh!
It's like dying 899 2/3 deaths!

NorCal AtlFan:
I knew it!
This sucks!

ToddZ:
&#%#%&$#$&$*$%^!

DOUGHBOYS:
WOW!
Cussing in Numerish sounds cool!

BK Mets:
Hey!
There's a secondary clock!
If we all go to this room we can find out how we did!

KJ Duke:
I don't know if I'm more pissed about the clock breaking or now knowing how I did!

Quahogs:
(After hearing his results)
Ahhhh, I love this day.
Second best day of the year!

GlennerationX:
What's the best day?
Draft Day?

Quahogs:
Nah.
Pay Day!

GlennerationX:
Note to self:
Call Billy Nelson.
Find out how to beat Quahogs.

[Quahogs]

Funny dough Don't recall this Nelson guy but I think Lowry has it figured out since he bounced me from a cash spot in the MtM Super last night.

[KJ Duke]

All but 1/3rd of me finds that funny.

[DOUGHBOYS]

Funny dough Don't recall this Nelson guy but I think Lowry has it figured out since he bounced me from a cash spot in the MtM Super last night.

Billy Nelson is no longer with us.
Billy Nelson went rogue.
While Quahogs has spread terror near and far with flawless fantasy play, Billy Nelson spread his terror with guns.
The victims were to numerous to count.
In the end, surrounded by police, Billy (Baby Face) Nelson was gunned down.
In his pocket, was found an old news story about Quahogs being inducted into the NFBC Hall of Fame.
And a tiddlywinks chip.
That victory meant more to him then most would ever know.

Quahogs has no memory of that loss.
But Billy Nelson remembered.
Oh, Billy remembers.
And while Billy Nelson quietly followed Quahogs winning fantasy ways, he knows that it is he, he and his tiddlywinks chip who were the last to get the better of Quahogs.

[Glenneration X]

KJ Duke:
Aaaargh!
It's like dying 899 2/3 deaths!

LOL Doughy, this line was classic!

By the way.....ummm, that Billy Nelson contact info you promised me.....send it to me via PM please.

[DOUGHBOYS]

It's been a long time, let's check in on the kids....

KJ Duke:
What is that noise?

King of Queens:
I don't know. It sounds like it's coming from the other classroom.

Sack:
I know what it is.

GlennerationX:
Yep, me too (smiling)

Quahogs:
Is that you know who?

Sack:
Yep, let's open the door and let them see!

(The door opens and a voice is booming)

MTM:
AND BY DRAFTING 15TH, I BELIEVE A BIG STRATEGICAL ADVANTAGE COMES MY WAY. SURE, THERE ARE THOSE THAT DON'T THINK DRAFTING 15TH IS COOL AND ELIMINATES THE CREAM OF THE CROP OF PLAYERS, BUT BY DRAFTING 15TH, I GUARANTEE MYSELF OF GETTING TWO PLAYERS EVERY TIME I PICK!
THAT IS TWICE AS MANY AS EVERYBODY ELSE....
WELL, EXCEPT FOR NUMBER ONE, BUT HE ONLY GETS ONE PLAYER TO BEGIN THE DRAFT.
THAT WOULD SUCK TO BE ON A CORNER AND ONLY GET ONE PLAYER!
I INTEND TO.....

(Sack closes the door)

headhunters:
he's loud.

Sack:
That is Mike The Mouth. He talks loud.

Quahogs:
And a lot.

DOUGHBOYS:
Does he know that nobody else is in the room with him?

Sack:
He doesn't care!
He's happy just talking!
If anybody starts listening to him, he'll just talk more.


Winston's Empire:
Yeah, we left 20 minutes ago and he hasn't noticed!

CC's Desperadoes:
It was a close week for whitemencantjump as he needed three points from Kick Novak to win the contest. It is amazing that these games come down to a kicker!

Gekko:
What's up with CC?

Ando:
He hangs out on the other side of Camp and has a hard time adjusting over here.
He'll be back to his old self in four weeks!

Money:
Did you say four weeks or twelve?
Cuz I like 12!

poopytooth:
Hey, the noise stopped!

Sack:
Nah, MTM just moved out of that room. That noise really never stops!

(The speakers crack)

MTM:
HEY EVERYBODY! I WAS WALKING DOWN THE HALL AND I NOTICED THAT PRINCIPAL AMBROSIUS IS TWO MINUTES LATE WITH THE AFTERNOON ANNOUNCEMENTS SO HERE THEY ARE!
FIRST, PLAY BALL!!!!
DID YOU SEE HOW I DID THAT PRINCIPAL AMBROSIUS?
YOU REALLY SHOULD BE MORE OPEN TO MY IDEAS!
PLAY BALL IS A GREAT WAY TO GREET US AT fANTASY CAMP!
YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND USE THAT IF YOU WANT AND I'LL EXPECT NO ROYALTIES.
NOW, ON TO TODAY'S ANNOUNCE....

Principal Ambrosius:
Uh, thank you, Mike. I'll continue the announcements....
The Diamond League has filled. If still interested, we can start another one.
In other news....

Money:
Did he say if there were 12 teams in that Diamond League?
Didja hear?
Cuz, I really like 12!

Edwards Kings:
Wow, do my eyes deceive me?
Walla Walla, what are you doing here?

Walla Walla:
I came back to tell all you guys that I was wrong and I was right.

Joe Sambito:
What do you mean?

Walla Walla:
Well, I was wrong about all the doom and gloom stuff about the NFBC.
If anything, the NFBC is as strong as its ever been!

Navel Lint:
So, what were you right about?

Walla Walla:
I quit about a dozen times and you guys just laughed!
Well, I told you I'd quit for good!

Money:
A dozen?
That's 12, you know!
I like 12

Raskol:
And how's that working out for you, Walla?

Walla Walla:
Ok, so I was wrong, and right, and wrong.
I miss you guys.

Principal Ambrosius:
You're welcome back anytime, Walla.
We haven't had anybody 'quit' since you left.

Walla Walla:
Cool!
And they say nobody loves a quitter.....

Why am I not surprised in the least? The minute this popped up on my BB as an alert that a post had been made in this thread, Doughy, I was like, "Oh crap, I think I'm roasted." And sure enough...Honored to have made the big time. Great stuff as always!

[DOUGHBOYS]

I knew you'd take it well.
All in fun!

[Money]

The 12 days of Christmas is upon us. What's wrong with the 12 days of "Fantasy Camp"?

[DOUGHBOYS]

The 12 days of Christmas is upon us. What's wrong with the 12 days of "Fantasy Camp"?

[Winston's Empire]

SO GOOD to be back in Fantasy Camp! I am just about to start my first draft with MTM and I can already say he is talking to much!!!! Good stuff as always Dough!

[DOUGHBOYS]

Let's check in on the kids once again.....

Winston's Empire:
Have you seen Greg Doyle?

smoking gun:
No, why?

Winston's Empire:
I don't know. It just seems like everybody's looking for him, so I thought I'd ask.


Principal Ambrosius:
Alright fellas, your gym teacher, Mr. Youkilis, called in sick today....again, so I'll be leading your class today.
Physical fitness is needed in being the best fantasy student that you can be....
DOUGHBOYS, PUT THOSE DORITOS AWAY!!!

DOUGHBOYS:
Sorry, Mr. Ambrosius, only had three sandwiches for lunch.

Principal Ambrosius:
Ok, Mr. Youkilis left me in his notes that we were to have 100 yard dashes today.

Mike The Mouth:
Mr. Ambrosius, can we do the 1500 today, I'm ready!

Principal Ambrosius:
Ok, first up is Marcel. Marcel, please get in your blocks.
Ok, ready! Set! Go!
Um,,,go, Marcel.

Ando:
He is, Mr. Ambrosius. Mr. Youkilis never has him go first because he'll take the whole hour to 'race' the 100 yards.
He has an hour of gym time and feels he should have that whole hour is his.

Mike The Mouth:
Oh good! Let's do the 1500 then!

Principal Ambrosius:
Mikey, I understand your exuberance, but the other boys may not be ready for the 1500. They may need time to prepare.

Mike The Mouth:
That's nonsense! Everybody who wants to run the 1500 put your hands up!

(7 or 8 hands are raised)

Mike The Mouth:
See! Let's do it!

Principal Ambrosius:
Not everybody raised their hand, Mike.

Mike the Mouth:
I'll talk to 'em.

KJ Duke:
I love watching Marcel 'run'. It's sorta like watching that scene in 'Chariots of Fire'.

Anonymous: (whispering)
Mr Ambrosius, I don't want to run the 1500 meters today. I'm not ready.
But, I don't want to disappoint Mikey.

Principal Ambrosius:
No problem, kid. It won't be happening today. Mr. Youkilis left me dates for each event and those events will not be changed.

Rockitsauce:
Hey Money, I didn't know you were a Cubs fan!

Money:
I'm not. I like the Tigers.

Rockitsauce:
What gives with the Soriano uniform?

Money:
Oh, he wears my favorite number. I love 12
I KDS 12.
Dozen donuts.
When I turned 13, I cried.

Mike The Mouth:
Ok Mr. Ambrosius, all the kids want to do the 1500 meters.

Principal Ambrosius:
Has anybody seen Greg Doyle? Hmmm, can't find him anywhere.

Mike the Mouth:
Did you hear me, Mr. Ambro....

Principal Ambrosius:
Yes Mikey. First what did Greg Doyle have to say?

Mike The Mouth:
Who's Greg Doyle?

Principal Ambrosius:
Exactly! That means not all kids are ready to race!
We'll do it according to Mr. Youkilis' plan. Got it?

Mike The Mouth:
Oh, I got it.
Hot out here, isn't it?

Principal Ambrosius:
And quit wiping your brow with your middle finger!
Look Mikey, maybe I come off as the bad guy here, but I have to take all the kids feelings into account here.
You may not know everything that is going on. If you want to make me the bad guy, go ahead. I've got big shoulders.

Mike The Mouth:
It's ok. I'll just have to wait to kick their asses, that's all.

Sack:
Mikey, why do you want to move up the race anyway?
It's like asking to be executed two weeks early!

Glennerationx:
Mikey, I've got pictures of you in your last 1500, they ain't pretty.
Here's one of you barfing after the race.

Mike The Mouth:
Real funny, fellas.

(The bell rings)

Mike The Mouth:
Race you guys to the locker room!

Anonymous:
Thanks Mr. Ambrosius.

Principal Ambrosius:
Next time Anon...(lowering his voice)
Grow a pair and tell Mikey yourself, ok?

Anonymous:
Yes, Sir.

Mr. Ambrosius
OK! EVERYBODY HIT THE SHOWERS!

(Five minutes later)

Greg Doyle:
I wonder where everybody went?

[Winston's Empire]

Thanks for putting the 1000 slow circus into its place Dough, we needed it!

[Lunatic]

You can't make this stuff up

[DOUGHBOYS]

Thanks for putting the 1000 slow circus into its place Dough, we needed it!

Thank you, Max.
Sometimes we just need to be reminded that a mole hill should always remain, a mole hill

[DOUGHBOYS]

Let's check in on the Kids....

Principal Ambrosius:
Alright Kids! Next week is our biggest assembly EVER!
We're going to have caps, shirts, drinks. Almost anything you want, we'll have it!
Some of you kids have been here for 10 years! You'd of thought you'd learn something by now!
Sack, Quahogs, DOUGHBOYS, KJ Duke, and Gekko, please show these new students around so they can get used to how things work around here, please.

DOUGHBOYS:
Kids, come down this way. We'll show you this hall first.

Quahogs:
This is the Slow Draft or Championship Draft wing.

KJ Duke:
Go ahead. Open that door.

(Opening the door reveals one lone kid, sitting at a desk in the middle of the room)
(The door is then closed)

A New Kid:
What was that?

KJ Duke:
That was a Slow Draft testing room. Originally, it had 15 drafters in there. Live, to do a slow draft. An experiment to see if a live slow draft would follow that of an online slow draft.They were each given draft numbers and told they had eight hours to make a pick.
14 kids made their pick. The 15th, Pitch 12, said, 'It is a Slow Draft' and will sit at that desk for another seven hours.
It's HIS time.

A New Kid:
Where are the other drafters?


Gekko:
They're all doing fun things. Getting on with their lives. They'll be paged when it is their turn.
We like to say that those that emphasize that 'this IS a slow draft' are indeed, a little slow themselves!

Sack:
Let's head down another wing.
Go ahead, open that door.

(The door opens)

Kid in class:
Kazmir will be great this year!


Another Kid in class:
So will Jay Bruce!

(The door closes)

New Kid:
And what was that?!

Gekko:
That is my favorite class. That class is pure art!

Sack:
Yeah, the art of deception!

DOUGHBOYS:
It's not everybody's favorite class.

New Kid:
How does it work?

Gekko:
Tell me who you like in the first round.

New Kid:
I like Robinson Cano. I hope I get fourth pick so I can take him.

Gekko:
Did you know it's rumored that Cano is taking PED's? His best friends are doing it. Yep, it's just a matter of time before he gets suspended.

New Kid:
Really? I hadn't heard that!

Gekko:
Is he still your favorite first round pick?

New Kid:
I don't know now!

Gekko (smiling):
And that's how it works!

New Kid:
I don't get it.

Gekko:
And I hope you never will.

Quahogs:
Are you kids drafting in the Main Event next Saturday?

New Kid:
Yeah, first time

Quahogs:
Really?
Well, I think you kids should all sit with me at my table. You know, I'm a good luck charm. The winner of my draft is almost always somebody I know.

Gekko:
Yeah, himself!

KJ Duke (Looking at DOUGHBOYS):
Do you new kids have your lists of sleepers, value picks, and projections handy for next Saturday?

DOUGHBOYS:
Oh, you're a real riot, you are!

New Kid:
But I do!
I'm a value drafter and have lots of sleepers.
My projections are the best. You guys ain't seen nothing yet!

DOUGHBOYS:
Kid, Quahogs is right, take a seat next to him.
You are truly deserving of the honor.
Tell me in October how you did with your projected valued sleepers.

[DOUGHBOYS]

Let's check in on the kids......

Outlaw:
MLB should be checking into this. It's an outrage! I hate it when rules are broken!

KJ Duke:
Is he going off about PED's again?

Ando:
No

KJ Duke:
Steroids?

Ando:
Nope

KJ Duke:
What this time?

PGromek:
GEKKO's BEEN KIDNAPPED!

Ando:
That!

King of Queens:
Ok, I get the first Gekko kidnapping joke!

Hells Satans:
Let's hear it.

King of Queens:
Ok, who kidnapped Gekko?

ToddZ:
76238429367

Bjoak:
He says, "I'll Bite, who kidnapped Gekko?

King of Queens:
ANONYMOUS!

(Laughter around)

Outlaw:
You guys shouldn't be laughing! This is serious! Do you know how many laws have been broken?
The police are going to get to the bottom of this and when they do, there'll be 50, or 100 day , or life time bans....er, I mean jail time or a lifetime sentence!

Money:
Gekko likes attention. He probably kidnapped himself!

NorCalAtlFan:
I can't imagine anybody who would want to.
First thing I'd do if I kidnapped him would be to gag him.

Gekko:
Hi guys.

Principal Ambrosius:
Gekko!
Where have you been? We thought you were kidnapped!

Gekko:
If you'd look at my teams, you'd know that I am the only person capable of running so many teams so well!

Navel Lint:
He's back!

Deadheadz:
bniwueuirgvruegw nbwuoren nbwenienbiewibe Cheers

Gekko:
Who's the new kid?

Quahogs:
We still don't know. He says some stuff, that we have no idea how to respond, then says 'Cheers'. A little disturbing, really.

DOUGHBOYS:
I call him 'the rally killer'. Seems like most of his posts end a thread because nobody knows how to respond.

JohnP:
Hey everybody, the votes are in for Class President, Vice president, and Hall monitor...

Principal Ambrosius:
Attention Kids!
For the 10th year in a row, nobody from this class has received a 75 percent vote needed to be class President or Vice President....

(A Groan)

Principal Ambrosius:
HOWEVER, for the third year in a row, and through a unanimous vote, Outlaw has again been named 'Hall Monitor'.

Outlaw:
YES!
Thanks everybody!

GEKKO:
Some hall monitor! PEOPLE THOUGHT I WAS KIDNAPPED!

Rog:
Yeah, but do YOU wanna be hall monitor?

Gekko:
I get it.

Bob Enzyte:
That'll do, Puig.

You have to think it's been a good start to the NFBC season from a game operator's standpoint when there's been only one Fantasy Camp story in three months. I will admit that I didn't enjoy seeing Principal Ambrosius mentioned in weekly updates of Fantasy Camp during the Fanball Year!! But thankfully we've all graduated from that camp.

It looks like we have some new characters at Fantasy Camp. All are welcome.
