Ahhh…



Yes, Gordon. That is me (embarrassingly) running my draft selection process on YouTube so all the other 14 members of my “NFBC Style” league could see why the selection was made in the order it was. Please view the first 2 seconds of the video where I clearly point out it is an NFBC style league and that the video is my drafts selection process.



If you must know, in preparation for this years main event, I found it helpful to convert one of my existing 3 CBS Sportsline leagues over to an NFBC formatted league. This would introduce a new style of play to 14 other members while at the same time give me some live drafting experience in a league considering I don’t personally put a lot of value in Mock Drafts (even though they are kinda fun too).



What is the purpose of such a “public” post? If you were genuinely concerned one of the NFBC members was out to try and setup a new league and compete, wouldn’t that be more appropriate of a private message to Greg? A post like this smells of something a school aged child attempting to rat out another publically in order to gain the preference of a teacher. I’m sorry if that sounds harsh, and I certainly recognize you as an extremely competent fantasy guy, but this post is just bazaar.

Ok, well now I feel like an idiot...



I was pretty sure your post had something to do with another post I made just the day or so prior and if you read it on it's own, it could have been viewed either way...



Sorry I took offense to a post that was not intended to do any harm.

Jon It takes a lot of guts to put yourself out there where other could bash the hell out of you. Kudos for taking the jump. I plan to do some next week while my kid is at camp.

I enjoyed the video and always nice to see the father son combo. I like how you can see the draft order live and think this can be the future of the draft order. Only thing i would do is shake that hat live then have your son pull out the names.
