Win A 2016 NFBC Main Event Entry Via Fanduel

Post by Tom Kessenich » Mon Apr 27, 2015 5:28 pm

Our next Tuesday Night NFBC/Fanduel.com daily game is already set up and ready to go. Cost is $25 per entry and the first 91 entries will be eligible to compete for $2,000 in prizes, with the top prize being a FREE 2016 NFBC Main Event entry (value = $1,600). Last week we fell a couple of entries short of a sellout, so let's sign up early and often to get this one sold out. Thanks all and everyone from the NFBC is invited and encouraged to compete this week.

Here's the link to the contest:

You have no shot. I ran my line-ups through my newly adjusted All-go-rthyms. You stand no chance. Algoryithms> A Lunatic. ;)

Let's just say I will be dedicating one of my 4 TV's to the Tiger/Twin game and am heavily invested in hitters against Mike Pelfrey. Looking forward to the action. Good luck all.

Thanks, Matt. I thought for sure Guerrero would hit a walk off, but then Mattingly to the rescue.

I originally had Pierzysnki and Jace Peterson and changed it for Zunino and Guerrero. Oops.

Congrats Rob. Kind of nice to have that entry already paid for, right?!! :D

If anyone has the Top 5 finishers from last night please let me know. I don't see the standings on that page right now. Thanks.

Congrats to Rob Giese for winning an entry in the 2016 NFBC Main Event. Here are the final standings and winners:

1 robg 57.41 2016 NFBC Main Event Entry ($1600 Value)
2 mattjb 55.75 $150.00
3 gsjanoff 54.5 $100.00
4 krukster 53 $75.00
5 ryanmax 52.5 $75.00

Winners were:
1. Rob Giese
2. Matt Bannister
3. Gregg Janoff
4. Eric Heberlig
5. ?? (I'm not sure who this is)

Congrats all.

Now we didn't quite fill this one last night with all NFBC owners. I think we had 86 of 91 spots filled. We really want to continue doing these each Tuesday, but obviously from Fanduel's perspective they want all full leagues. Let's try again on Tuesday and see if the interest is still there to continue at this format. We sure hope so. Good job all and congrats.

Winners of 2016 Main Event Entries:
Week 2 - Bryan Sannito
Week 3 - Chris Piper
Week 4 - Rob Giese

Way to go Rob, welcome to the winners circle.

Maybe if we can get this contest to go 15 weeks they'd give us our very own ME league? :roll:


Sorry to hear it didn't fill. I purposely didn't jump in early since I was sure it would fill and wanted to give someone else a chance to finish first.
Is there a way to view the progress of the contest if you aren't one who's entered? From the post Bryan made last week it sounded like you could but I couldn't figure it out.

That may have been a fluke last week when I was able to view the final standings.I was unable to view the final standings this morning.You wont be able to view the contest live unless you have entered it.

As soon as you click on the link you can see how many people are entered that day. That's how I updated it yesterday and I wasn't signed up for the contest.

I don't see a problem with people competing for a second entry. You could use it for NFFC or an NFBC Primetime or anything else you wanted. I think we fill up this contest each week, but last year we lasted only 6 weeks and I really don't want that to happen this year if we can avoid it. Let's hope for a sellout next week.
