NFBC Message Boards

Folks, I'm going all out this year, entering both the AL and NL auctions. My partner Mr Emma has assured me he has a strategy that will put us in contention in both leagues. It will be our 3rd consecutive AL Auction title

I have a feeling these leagues will fill up quick. Don't get left out.

ONLY 5 SPOTS LEFT in the NL Auction League with Lord Zola joining both auctions. This could be the first full league of the season. Pretty cool:

You might need that after the latest signup. Heck, we might need two leagues of each this year at this pace. Nice job all:

Now only 1 spot left in the $1300 NL Auction League as NFBC Hall of Famer Steve Jupinka is taking a spot in each one. This is going to be a crazy good league this year. Enjoy and good luck all.

It's starting to look like a party! Maybe we could move it into a suite ... with only 12?

Big welcome to Steve. Classy guy and great player. Wow, whoever wins this league will have proved their worth

Give me Trout for $50

Yeah, once I have a location nailed down we can see what the space looks like. This could work in a location like the Executive Penthouse Suite if we get that again. We'll figure this part out once we have all of that signed, sealed and delivered.

Well, that didn't take long. We have one NL $1300 Auction League SOLD OUT and there are only 3 SPOTS LEFT in the AL Auction League. I'm not sure what was the lure of these private auction leagues this year, but I LIKE IT!! We'll definitely keep things open for a second NL Auction League because I know there are a lot of owners from last season who haven't signed up yet. This took off before I could email everyone, so we'll try for a second league.

Here's the current signup lists for these two private leagues in Las Vegas on Second Weekend:

Clearly, an East Coast conspiracy. I don't know the angle yet. I'd have to guess it's either A) now that the Mets have usurped the Yankees and Sox the EC has switched sides to the winner's league, B) It's a secret meeting to boycott the State of NY's stance of fantasy sports, C) it's a secret meeting to discuss how to screw Joe Money, D), all of the above.

here's a peek into my playbook...
