John, that's a good picture. But what in the hell are you keeping pictures of me and The Foss from 2000 in your family album for? That's insane. You have to admit, the career paths of me and The Foss went in different directions since that picture was taken 4 or 5 years ago.

Thanks for the laugh....and you better sign up for Las Vegas before tomorrow's draft!!! We're at 201 and counting.

When is the last day to sign up? I still can't find a flight to Vegas.

Tom is off today, so we'll hold a chat tomorrow instead. After tonight's magazine league draft, that will give us something to talk about in tomorrow's chat. See you then in a new thread.

Or if you are in GG's league, maybe he will send a limo!

Greg, Tom --

I never received a copy of Fantasy Sports magazine, and I'm wondering about position eligibility for several players. If all the positions listed on the Cheat Sheets section of your website are accurate, I'll just use them. Are they?

Yes, those on the website are the same as those in the magazine. KOQ is correct that we added Josh Willingham to the catcher eligibility list. But we'll definitely get you a magazine soon.

What an ugly mug!!

Greg / Tom:

Is there an excel version of your stat projections available? i see in the magazine you project each player in the last sentence of the description, but I like to look at projects analytically and compare to mine...

Spy

I'm checking with Ted Kasten right now. Hang tight.

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Mon Jan 30, 2006 5:57 am

Tom and I are doing one more experts league draft this afternoon, so there won't be a live chat today. Tom can host one tomorrow. Tom has the first pick today in a 12-team draft and I'm sitting at No. 8. Should be interesting.

Chris Take the (.) off the end of the URL.

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Mon Jan 30, 2006 8:04 am

Yeah, the URL is correct. He will have the baseball software and site ready next week as right now it's focusing on football. Give it one more week and that data will be available through DraftDynamix.com.

Nevadaman · Post by **Nevadaman** » Mon Jan 30, 2006 8:43 am

Hi Greg, Please add my name to the list of current NFBC signups that did not get a magazine and wants one! Thanks

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Mon Jan 30, 2006 9:09 am

Yup, all of the NFBC people who didn't get a magazine with the early mailing are getting them soon. They were being added last week after the subs went out. Apparently there was a mixup internally with adding another year to some people's subscriptions after they signed up early and those were entered AFTER the magazines went out. We're hand sending each out now.

Sorry, but hang tight as they'll be there soon.

my preliminary chat question is

"when will we really actually have a chat session?"

Starting on Monday of next week, I PROMISE that Tom will do daily chats until Draft Day. How does that sound?

Tom Kessenich · Post by **Tom Kessenich** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 10:29 am

I'll have a chat tomorrow if you folks are interested. And then either every Monday or Wednesday or maybe both going forward. How's that sound?
