FAAB, should stand for… if you get em’ “Feaking Awesome Addition Baby!”, and if you don’t…. Fu$K Another Absurd Bid!
Anyone else root feverishly against the guys you miss out on?
….struggling owner who missed out on Bellinger and Hicks by over $800 combined!
FAAB-just a bit too low
Re: FAAB-just a bit too low
I paid the high bid of 440 for Bellinger, don't know if it will work out over the next 21 weeks, but i sure would bid that again after last week!!!
Re: FAAB-just a bit too low
My most common occurrence is winning a guy and overbidding him by three times as much as the next highest bidder. Come up with an acronym for that one
Re: FAAB-just a bit too low
No kidding, that guy is a, First Attempt At Bidding?- guy....I think he's my partner!

That is FAABN- Far Above Actual Bid Needed.Bjs2025 wrote:My most common occurrence is winning a guy and overbidding him by three times as much as the next highest bidder. Come up with an acronym for that one
This occurs when we think a lot more of a player than 14 others.
Sometimes resulting in bidding only against ourself....
Three minutes before the deadline-" I better raise my bid 10 more dollars, I really want this guy."
One minute before the deadline-"I'd hate to lose this guy over a couple of dollars, raise it five more."
When the results come in, we find out that even our original bid far exceeded all other bids.
I don't mind FAABN. It's a little like real baseball in beating a team 20-2, knowing we can't use those runs in the next game.
And like real baseball, the losses we take the hardest are when we get beat by one.
On my tombstone-
Wait! I never had the perfect draft!
