The Latest NFBC Main Event Update
Posted: Fri Mar 11, 2005 5:01 am
Okay, we're still working to get those final signups to fill our main event at 300 teams. We officially have 293 right now and two more teams that definitely will get in. I have five other teams on the fence, but I feel good about all seven teams. We are very close to wrapping this up, but obviously I can't pick the leagues until all seven have paid and the credit cards have cleared. Once we have that done, we'll announce the leagues and the draft spots for each team.
When will that be? It could be before the end of the day, but more likely it will be over the weekend or even Monday morning. I'll say with confidence now that it will be Monday morning at the latest as Tom and I will work this weekend and pick the leagues whenever that 300 has been reached. We're almost ready to go that way right now, so hang tight.
I know everyone is eager to know their draft spots and learn which leagues they are in, but let's get the right 300 owners first. It's been a slower week than expected, but I guess a lot of our guys made their travel plans ahead of time and signed up accordingly. That's great. I hope that happens every year. Unfortunately, it's delayed the announcement of our draft spots for everyone by a few days, but life goes on.
Hang tight a little longer and I'll e-mail everyone an update once I know when we'll have the announcement of the leagues. With any luck, it will be before Sunday's midnight deadline. If you're still looking to get into the main event, contact me at 715-445-4612, ext. 284 or via e-mail at [email protected]. I'll be in the office most of this weekend, so contact me at anytime.
See ya all in another week and thanks again for making 2005 a historic year for the NFBC. The only question I have is: ARE YOU READY FOR SOME BASEBALL? Good luck on Draft Day and be prepared!
