Greg, I was hopeful a few weeks ago but now I'm feeling like it's getting too late.

You may want to read between the lines; I will remain patient [/QUOTE]Jim, while I will wait to see how it plays out there are many others who are beginning to move on. I have confidence in playing a game with Charlie running it but if too much time ticks away the horses will be out of the barn.

If something is going to happen it needs to happen quickly. Everybody has to make their own decisions. I think everyone understands that. It's no different than waiting for the NFBC to return. Do what you think is best for you in 2011. Good luck Tim.

Some of the horses will be out of the barn, but not all. There's a lot of time left.

I suggest playing the challenge game that Larry doesn't play. They only pay first place once most of the time.

If the Charlie everyone is referencing is the Charlie I met at last year's Atlantic City drafts, I'm rooting for him to succeed here. I only met him the one weekend, but he impressed me as a very nice guy who's passionate about this sport and game. From what I also understand, he pretty much invented this game. I wish him well.



I'm not playing the Diamond Challenge this year (in any of it's forms), but I did try it the last two years. The first year I finished 3rd in my league, the 2nd year not nearly as well. Both years, I thought it was a fun game.



Good luck to everyone who is passionate about this game. Great games can and should survive difficult circumstances, look at the NFBC.

No one sees the barn,

They are taking pictures of taking pictures

Whatever is going on with the remnants of DC, I'll wait it out. If it's Charlie or anybody I'd trust, they've got at least one team from me...
