NFBC Message Boards

Welcome to a new season for the NFBC.

Our goal is to get the site live this week and begin our first NFBC $150 Draft Champions League before the weekend. No guarantees that will happen, but that's the goal. The grand prize for this contest is $28,000 and once again we'll have $150, $400 and $1,000 entry points. Let's kick off the baseball season this week with our first $150 DC of the season.

Anyone who would like to jump into this first draft, either post here or email me at greg.ambrosius@sportshubtech.com. We will sign everyone up as soon as the site goes live and get this draft started the day after. Sound good?

Thanks for your patience everyone. Now let's get drafting.

This baseball season will still use the STATS back-end, including the draft rooms and in-season software. A new online draft room and other added features to our contests will begin with football 2017. There just isn't enough time to make wholesale changes before baseball, so we will continue to work with STATS for this season. Hope that helps.

Okay, let's get the drafting season underway. Contact me if you want to jump into this first DC of the season and be ready to draft soon. Thanks all and good luck.

Contact me at greg.ambrosius@sportshubtech.com or post here if you want in. I can no longer read by gambrosius@stats.com emails, so please don't send those to that address. If you have in the last day please forward to my new account. Thanks.

Oh, and lesson learned the hard way: Don't try to edit the list on your phone while driving home!! I deleted the whole first post and had to rewrite it. It's back now, so hopefully people can see what we're doing here. Sorry about that. Never again from my phone will I edit a Message Board post!!

We need to switch out to our credit card processor first and then we can go live. That's the only holdup now. Once we get that done we'll be good to go. I should know more shortly. Sorry for the delay, but we need the money coming to the new owners!!

Got it Dave. NOW ONLY 6 SPOTS LEFT in our first draft of the season, NFBC $150 Draft Champions League 2. We're just waiting to load in our new payment processor and then we'll be good to go. We have to get the money going to the right bank before starting the season, but hopefully that happens soon. Be ready all.

Here's a look at our second league, which should fill shortly:

Email me at greg@sportshubtech.com or post here and we'll save you a spot. Once the site is live, Tom and I will sign everyone up and get these leagues set up as we have here. Let us do that part. Thanks all and good luck.

Question - is it not doable/prohibitive to do DC mocks on the software?


I think you'd get a lot of turnout from us hardcore folks, sure some may not want to give strategy away and all but just a thought. I am sure a lot wouldn't even be drafting their ideal team but testing strategies. Thx
