SOLD OUT! The "Midnight Madness" Draft 3/20/20 at the MTM NFBC Party in Vegas!

So once again, it just had to be done. Back by popular demand and a general lack of poor judgement on my part, the now fourth annual installment of "Midnight Madness" will again be hosted at the Friday night MTM NFBC Party as party of the festivities. Darik Buchar will be back in charge of this along with whatever hapless sole he recruits to facilitate this thing. So Darik again gets the unenviable task of dealing with this group of degenerate fanatics into the wee hours of the morning for what will again be a live, $750 Satellite League Event which pays top two ($7000/$1000) just as it was last year. We AGAIN generously donated to Marc Winokur who was the champion of this league for the second consecutive year! We started this thing around 11:30 p.m. or so last year, so I'm shooting to give it a go roughly around the same time again as well. We banged this baby out with no breaks in about two hours, max. Food and drink were enjoyed before, during, and after which will probably be the case again. So if you want in for this special event which will make this awesome night that much more of a blast, post your name to this thread. And P.S. If you don't party with us, you don't draft with us! Which means, initially, only party attendees need apply. But if for some crazy reason I don't fill it with attendees to the party, I may open it up to to guys who only want in for this event. So who else wants a piece of this action? 
The sign-ups that I am aware of so far are as follows:
1. MTM
2. Marc Winokur (2018/2019 Champ)
3. Bryan Vogel
4. CJ "The Siege" Kaltenbach
5. Matt "Doc" Shepherd (2017 Champ)
6. Dusty Wagner
7. Colin Weatherwax
8. Jason Anthony
9. Rob Giese
10. Greg Lathrop
11. Anthony Gialde
12. Scott "Fuck it" Zeidman

NOW JUST SIX SPOTS LEFT! Where else can have a shot at $7000 while competing against such top NFBC talent while half in the bag with all of them?! 
So who else wants in? If you competed in this contest last year and want back in, don't wait on this one this year. Spots will not last.

Let's fill this baby up! There may be a couple of spots available this year, and I'm looking for some top players. Getting sick of just handing Winokur the title every year, and last year to the tune of $7000 for his first place finish. 
So who wants in? And just an FYI, we powered through this draft, booze and all, in under two hours the last couple of years.

The competition for this one is shaping up nicely! NOW JUST FOUR GUARANTEED SPOTS LEFT! Being sober and coherent for this draft is not a requirement, and just the way Winokur likes it.

This just in: Mark Winokur has reviewed the list of competitors lined up this year so far, and told me point blank that he "pisses on all of us". 
See, this is what happens when you get so cocky after winning this league two years in a row. Time for someone else to take home the $7000 and the title. So who wants in and wants to shit on Winokur in the process?

Heard from Winokur again in an early morning text where he referenced his fellow competitors as "dogs not worthy of eating their own shit, let alone his." Sounds like he's really throwing down the gauntlet this year. Anyone else motivated to make him eat his words...or his shit?

NOW DOWN TO JUST THREE GUARANTEED SPOTS LEFT! Let's get this baby locked and loaded...just like we all will be for the draft. All except for Winokur, who'll stroll in in his sports coat with his one limit martini in hand and his usual "fuck you" attitude in tow to take all your money.

NOW DOWN TO JUST TWO GUARANTEED SPOTS LEFT WITH GREG LATHROP DECIDING TO JUMP INTO THESE DRUNKEN SHARK INFESTED WATERS! I can hear Winokur's demonic cackling from here. 
Only two guaranteed spots left, so who wants else wants in? Awesome party experience not to be missed!

Well... when in doubt, just jump in with 2 feet and hope for the best.
I recently made the MISTAKE of joining the MTM "Midnight Madness" draft as my first ever, live, Vegas NFBC draft.
Being the guaranteed ROOKIE of the group, I fully plan on getting my $750 worth of alcohol as I doubt I'll be sniffing any cash prizes.
"Come to Vegas" they said, "It will be fun..." Sorry kids, looks like no birthday presents this year.
Thanks for the invite, Mike!!
Greatly looking forward to it.

We greatly appreciate it, Greg, and we'll have no remorse whatsoever in taking your donation to this league this year. So be sure to drink your money's worth at the party prior to the draft. See you there!

NOW DOWN TO JUST ONE GUARANTEED SPOT LEFT! Johnny "Fourslot" Bosch himself has thrown his name into the ring because, and I quote: "Fuck that cocky scumbug, Winokur! He's going down like a cheap whore when I take him on in this league." So much for JB's anger management classes. It's going to be a blast, so who wants in for the last spot?

This baby is now officially SOLD OUT! Thanks to all the kick-ass owners who took the plunge and were inspired to collectively deliver a beat down to now two-time defending champ, two years running, Marc "Fuck You All' Winokur! When he was informed that we now had a full contingent of highly skilled and extremely motivated drafters locked, loaded, and ready to take his ass down this year, this is all I go back from him in true Winokur fashion:
I guess you can sense the disdain as I do.
So the stage is now set! But everyone can just ignore setting their KDS for draft slot selection. We will be doing this LIVE and "Iron Balls" Style right in the suite just prior to the draft. No MTM draft event would be complete without it. So everyone be sure to come prepared with whatever draft materials, computers, etc. that you would like to bring. There is plenty of secure room space to stow your stuff for the party prior, during, and after the event. Looking forward to it, and thanks all for participating as we are now just shy of four short weeks away from this killer event! 
CAN'T WAIT!

We are now confirmed that all 12 owners of this year's Midnight Madness Draft will once again be there LIVE in attendance as per tradition. I have managed to coerce, cojole, and con NFBC relative newbie, Anthony Gialde, to throw caution to the wind, shirking all familial and work responsibilities to purchase a plane ticket to come to Vegas to join us for the festivities, while once again simultaneously pumping more money into the coffers of the NFBC. Ah, the full story of how this came to pass is yet another MTM classic that needs to be told at some later date...like at the party over as much alcohol as possible. See you in Vegas, Anthony, and safe travels!

URGENT ALERT! It looks like we are now down one for this great event due to a last minute, non-coronavirus related douching! So I'm looking to recruit one more brave soul who will step to the plate and jump into this draft that night at the party. DM, PM, or text me if you can make it happen, and I will do something non-sex related (at least with me ) that will make it worth it for you. Least I could do now here in the 11th hour. So who's game? As I said, we banged this one out in less than two hours last year and everyone had a blast as always. So let's make it happen!

Let's make it happen, party goers! If you're on the fence about taking the plunge, don't be! You won't regret joining us for this blast of a draft to help take back some of Winokur's hoard that he's amassed over the last two years, the filthy miser that he is. I've had a couple of inquiries, but need a commitment...and the ever-expanding personal MTM secret prize package for the one who sells us out will be yours!

Just added a set of MTM Steak Knives to the prize package. The remainder I will keep a mystery until we have our winner for the last sign-up to again close this thing out. Who wants in for the last spot? Just 15 days away from today at the Bellagio and the highlight of the evening!

Guess the steak knives put it over the top as long time NFBC veteran, Scott Zeidman, will be joining us for this awesome draft event to close it out once again! All I can say is, He da man! Now let's get ready to party!
