Position Eligibility

Greg - What are the rules this year for position elig? I saw in the rules 20 games last yr/10 this. Will you be publishing a list again of all the players and the positions that you think they will play or will you just be going by the 20/10 rule? Thanks!

Yup, the eligibility lists are compiled already and we'll post them online very soon. Tom is getting all of that information to STATS right now. If you pick up the latest issue of Fantasy Sports Magazine you can see where we have each player listed, but we'll put it on the NFBC home page free of charge this week as well.

Yes, it's 20/10, except for September callups, who qualify at the position they played the most while in the majors.

Excellent greg! I can't wait to see the lists

Thanks Greg. I don't see it yet on the site, so I guess you have not gotten around to posting. Can you just post a reply when that list is available? The 20/10 rule is very straight forward, it's the Sept call-up elig that is a bit difficult to get info on. I am looking forward to seeing the master list. Thanks.

Tom did forward these last week and they should have been posted by now. I'll crack the whip tomorrow and make sure these get posted. You guys need to know the NFBC position eligibility lists. Our bad for the delay.

These are now on the NFBC site on the "Fantasy Content" Section on the right side of the front page.

Tom, the graphic to the left of it looks like..

"KDSP", not KDS ?" bad font I'd say...

What graphic are you talking about John?

KDSP does look odd. I would suggest a space between the "S" and the "?" [which really looks like a P]

I must be blind but where are you guys seeing KDSP?

took me a while to see what they are talking about. The yellow bar that says "what is kds" The ? looks like a P. I think a space would solve the problem.

Looks fine to me. Maybe it's a PC thing? I'm on a Mac and while I'm of the belief that 99.9% of the time Macs suck the line looks perfectly clear to me on my computer.

If I was new, it would be confusing...

Another vote for KDSP!

It still looks fine to me but I've contacted STATS to have them take a look at it and make sure it's clear and legible for everyone.

tom- trust an old guy. it is a question mark, however, just like an eyesite test- people that need glasses will see a p because their eyes are going. actually you are saving these guys a trip to the eye doctor. if they see a p- time for reading glasses. i see a p without my glasses- a question mark with them on.

Tom Kessenich · Post by **Tom Kessenich** » Tue Jan 30, 2007 4:12 am

I trust you guys. I still think it might be a PC thing because it looks fine on my Mac.

But again, Macs suck.

viper · Post by **viper** » Tue Jan 30, 2007 4:21 am

I see that Stats has embedded a space. The "KDS" is distinct. The problem seems to be the odd font they are using for those letters. The "?" looks a bit odd but it is legible.

Back to the subject of this thread ....

Is it safe to assume that the position eligibility list as presented is the offical list? If a player shows as SS eligibile, that eligibility will not be taken away?

Is it safe to assume that additional eligibilities will be added to the link AND posted on an appropriate link on this board? It would be nice if additional eligibilities are highlighted on the list in some manner.
