NFBC Message Boards

The tag team of Jim Christie and Ken Magner couldn't resist the lure of Atlantic City and I'm talking fantasy baseball not horse racing!! The CDM pair and NFBC veterans are going to partner up for one team in the Atlantic City main event, bringing us ONE SPOT AWAY from a third full league in AC on Saturday, March 20th. Who wants to help us fill out that third league as we go forward on a 28th full league overall?



We have one spot left there and a minimum of three spots between Las Vegas and St. Louis. I already have a couple of folks inquiring about the Bellagio on the 20th, so don't delay if you want to get into any of these first weekend live events. Here's the current signup list for March 20th, so don't delay:

[/QUOTE]Now that's convenient. So when October rolls around, you can say, "I didn't do well in the AC Main Event because I didn't want to give away my draft secrets for week two"

Can't wait for this...Sink or swim with the sharks!! I love it!!

Hey Mark

You had to mention my name,thought I could fly under the radar like some of my picks. Anyway to quote a famous wrestler whose wife just beat him up. Ric Flair "To be the man,you got to beat the man" Will be tough in AC but would rather compete against the best

See you in AC than at Citi

Marty

Rich, I'll bring the shark suits and underwater air tanks. Should keep us afloat for a few hours!

[/QUOTE]Yeah, I can't understand why you wouldn't spend $200 on a plane ticket and come to Chicago. Considering all the easy money you think is here and the money you expect to win, the investment would pay off many, many times over. I thought Gordon Gekko was a prudent financial man?

Okay, we now have three full main event leagues for Saturday, March 20th in Atlantic City and we've taken this one off the signup page. All 45 owners are asked to set their KDS preferences by Tuesday, March 9th at 1 pm ET and we'll pick the draft slots shortly after that. Good luck all and thanks for making our first season in Atlantic City such a big success.

[/QUOTE]This Gordon Gekko is also a family man. We had plans to go to Vegas, but the price tag was too much, so AC is next. Had to arrange vacation days amongst 4 people and find someone to watch our children. Sorry, but Chicago doesn't do it for the rest of the family.



Hopefully if some AC owners need to draft via phone with Chicago, Greg will put me in that group. would LOVE it.
