SOLD OUT: We filled the NFBC 15-Team Super League on Saturday, March 25th at 7 pm ET, but we are keeping that one open for now. There are a couple of owners in Las Vegas who would prefer to do the Sunday, March 26th Las Vegas/Online Super League and would move if we get momentum for that one in the next 10 days.

We have 17 owners between the two of them and the March 26th Super League is the last available one of the season. If you have interest in joining that one, sign up online or contact me and we'll keep the hope alive!! Again, there's a chance to still get in the Saturday Super League if we can also fill the Sunday one, so let's see what the next week brings. Thanks all and good luck.

Just a heads up that the next available Main Event Online league is Sunday at 10 pm ET and Monday at 8 pm ET. Those draft spots will be announced 1 hour after the leagues are full. Then there's nothing available until Wednesday, March 22nd. Jump in early if you want one of those Main Event Online leagues before we get to the Las Vegas live events.

Thanks all and good luck.

Okay, just a heads up for the Las Vegas Main Event drafters on Thursday, March 23rd, we are a day late in providing the league configurations and draft spots, but we hope to get that done today. Hang tight for a bit.

We currently have 25 people live in Las Vegas for the Thursday, March 23rd, 4 pm PT Main Event. We waited an extra day to see if we could find 5 more to join in Las Vegas, but now it's time to move onto Plan B. We do have Online signups for that night and I will reach out to those owners to see if they are okay joining our live leagues. Once we get five more to agree, we'll have configurations of 13 live/2 Online and 12/3. It will work fine and both leagues will be solid and run smoothly.

If anyone wants one of these live spots speak now or forever hold your peace. We're picking draft spots today. Thanks all and here we go.

It's hard to believe, but every single league in Las Vegas for this weekend is sold out. There's not a single spot available for NFBC live events at the Mirage this weekend!! WOW!! :D

Safe travels everyone and we'll see you at the Mirage, where the NFBC will dominate the sports book, bars and Grand Ballroom of the Convention Center. See you there.

Now, we still have a lot of work to do Online, including the Main Event. We enter today with 623 teams and 25 created leagues. We still have openings Online tonight, this week, this weekend and into early next week. We want to create those leagues 5 days in advance and give out draft spots 5 days in advance, but if we get within that timeframe we will announce picks within the hour after the league has sold out. Plan accordingly.

I know we can sell out the Main Event for a 19th straight season. We just have to get busy over the next 10 days. Here we go. :D

We had a record 31 -- yes, THIRTY ONE -- Main Event signups yesterday, a new single-day record in the NFBC. At least eight of them came during the epic WBC Final last night and three more came in right after the game. I feel a buzz for baseball again!!! :D

We are at 674 Main Event teams as of this morning with a goal of hitting 750 teams. We still have a lot of work to do, but I think you can see where this trend is heading. We're predicting a 19th straight sellout season for the Main Event, so jump and secure your teams soon if you want to compete for that record $200,000 grand prize.

All Main Event leagues are updated and correct for the last eight days of drafts. Check out the list if you still want to get in and see who you might be competing against. Thanks all and good luck.
