Everyone,
First of all, a big THANK YOU to everyone who supported the NFBC Main Event this year. We had a comeback that hasn't been seen since Rocky II as we SOLD OUT the 2022 NFBC Main Event!!!
This is the 18th straight year that we've sold out the Main Event as we finished with 45 leagues and 675 teams. Since March 10th when the new CBA was signed, we got 425 Main Event sign-ups in less than 24 days. Rocky didn't even hit that hard in Rocky II.
I decided to shut off the Main Event on Saturday morning when we sold out because we had finished 2 leagues ahead of 2021 and 1 league ahead of budget. I didn't feel there was a reason to keep it open since we still had a 15-Team Super League available on Tuesday and a $1500 Auction Championship league available on Monday. Plus, we're still under water with the Rotowire Online Championship and the Cutline Championship, so those are the contests that need the most help.
But, of course, the Super SOLD OUT and the Auction Championship SOLD OUT today. And the Rotowire OC is making an epic comeback as well.
So after hearing from several people who either a) wanted one more team; or b) still wanted to get into the Main Event for the first time this year; or c) decided to return to the NFBC after finally forgiving MLB on the lockout; I've decided to open the Main Event again.
We are only offering two more Main Event Online leagues and then I PROMISE we are done for the Main Event in 2022. Once these are full we are done and prize money will be added to the overall from 2nd place on down. And if we don't fill them, then no harm, no foul.
Here's the two openings:
Wednesday, April 6, 9 pm ET
Thursday, April 7, 9 am ET
That would put us at 47 leagues and 705 teams. If you sign up for these last two leagues, realize that draft spots will arrive 1 hour after the league fills, so set your KDS preferences after signing up and be ready to rock 'n roll on Wednesday and Thursday. This is it. Last two Main Event leagues of the season.
Thanks all and best of luck in all your leagues. This has been a very stressful but rewarding NFBC season and you all have come through once again. It's the best community in all of fantasy sports and I think this year we all realize how lucky we are to have baseball again and to have this strong, vibrant community of like-minded people. It's the best. You all are the best.
Okay, first-come, first-served on these last 30 spots. Good luck.
