SOLD OUT: NFBC $150 Draft Champions 5

We have just posted the Rules & Prizes for the 2015 NFBC Draft Champions National Championship. Once again, we will offer $150, $400 and $1,000 price points and we'll offer the 8-hour per pick leagues right now and eventually post draft dates for the DC Express Leagues, which have 1 minute per pick. We are looking forward to another record year for this contest. Good luck all and thanks.

We'll start out with the NFBC $150 Draft Champions League when the site goes live next week. Our goal is to have Registration live later next week and to have drafts going by Nov. 14th or 15th. If you want to be part of the first DC drafts, feel free to post your intentions here or email me at [email protected] and we'll create these leagues in advance and then get everyone signed up accordingly right away next week. That will allow us to start these drafts the day after we go live and to get this season rolling right away. Let's do it.

League prizes are the same as last year and the grand prize starts at $25,000. Let's see if demand exceeds expectations once again. You folks never cease to amaze me in this format. Here we go:

Okay, a progress report: We should have Registration live on Thursday and the goal is to get the first 15 owners in this Draft Champions league signed up and ready to go. I will sign each of you up once Registration is live and then you'll have all day to set your KDS preferences. KDS deadline will be midnight CT and you'll get an email with draft positions before you wake up. The first DC will start at 1 pm ET on Friday if all holds to plan.

Thanks for your patience all and we're glad to get the drafting season started earlier than ever before. Here we go!!!

Yes, this is going live this morning. Tom and I will sign up the first 15 owners and email the group to let them know they need to set their KDS preferences tonight. Then we can start the draft at 1 pm ET tomorrow and keep signups rolling in. The 2015 NFBC Draft Season is about to begin!!! :D

It's not ready yet but we're close.

We're asking that no one sign up for a Draft Champions league until we sign up the first 15 people on the list above so they can get into the first league. We'll post here once everyone has been signed up so hang tight a bit longer. Thanks. :)
