2010 NFBC Satellite League Schedule

We have always kicked off our NFBC Satellite League schedule in mid-February and have plans to do that again in 2010. But I'll definitely say right now that if there is interest to do any league earlier than that, we'll run them for you.



Heck, right now we already have full $325 and $125 NFBC Slow Draft, Draft Champions leagues. In NOVEMBER!! We will continue to offer those over the next three months to whet your appetites and in February we'll get busy with drafts each week. We can always add more, but this is the list I put together for our web site based on past years' performances.



This year we are adding more 9 ET satellite leagues as we certainly learned through the NFBC Online Championship season how popular the later times were. We have the same payout structure as last year the game format is basically the same.



Our new web site also really simplifies when we are offering each price format and when those available dates are. I really like that about the new site. Below is a jumble of everything we are offering, but trust me it will be much clearer on the new web site as each price level and format has separate listings with each available draft date.



So don't get mad at me, but at least this is a tentative listing that you can pick through and target certain leagues once the REgistration page is live. Thanks all.

Any chance of some higher value auction leagues? $500 or $1000?

The $1,000 leagues you refer to are snake draft aren't they?

[/QUOTE]Yes, all of the satellites listed above are snake drafts. I don't feel comfortable enough with the auction software to offer anything online higher than $250. Maybe in time we will, but last year we relied on ESPN's auction software to host two pay auction leagues and I'm not sure if we can still do that or not this year. Going higher on someone else's technology isn't feasible to me right now.
