private high stakes keeper lge for NFBC players

Post by KJ Duke » Wed Nov 01, 2006 11:33 am

Current owners are NFBC competitors. League started last season; consists of separate NL auction and AL draft. Post or PM me if you're in the NFBC and also would like to join this unique lge.

I am at least interested in the details. How much? How is the draft/auction done? What keepers would I get? How do I know this is legit and not a scam. I don't mean to doubt your credibility, but it unfortunately happens. Who else is in the league?

- auction via chat room or IM

- draft at mock draft central or sportsline

- send me your name via PM or post your email and I can send available rosters/ constitution

- legit? we have several guys that are well-known on these boards and in the NFBC in our lge(CC's Desperados, P Van Hook, etc); I have been here since the beginning, so many people know me as well

Can't believe there is not two players willing to try this league out. You will NOT regret it!

DAK I would love too. For the reasons I gave KJ it just doesn't make sense, at least not for me at this time. Wish I had gotten into it last year.

We filled our last spot with another hardcore NFBC player, so the lge is full for '07. If anyone else who plays the NFBC has interest, you're welcome to P.M. me and I will contact you if another franchise becomes available.

I am curious how results are combined. For example NL should have been ERA/Whip than AL...



Too bad you don't have a normal mixed league I have a strange block against single league format

Results are just combined with points, not actual stats - though combining stats would make strategy even more interesting.

seems like newcomers would be at a distinct disadvantage with no low priced keepers in a high stakes league

WHY would you take SEXSON in the 3rd round , when his avg draft slot is six, i dont get it.Can you pass on Sexson, and i wouldnt want SAntana in the 1st.

Just a question , not trying to be a smart ass, can you get other players for them . eddie g.

Just a question , not trying to be a smart ass, can you get other players for them . eddie g. Two reasons Eddie - #1, the lges are separate. He will have a higher ADP in an AL-only lge because there are only half as many players from which to choose. Secondly, in a keeper lge there is "draft inflation", with many quality players being kept the pool to choose from is even smaller. Given the available player pool excl the keepers, Sexson would likely be a top 10 pick in this league - while Santana would be far and away the #1 available player.
