), has informed me that he has been following this entertaining little thread of ours, and really wishes he could participate to show us that he's not just all talk and no action, but he's committed to Tout Wars that night. So unlike Lowy, whose most legitimate reason for not joining to date has been his unwillingness to potentially lose to people who are clearly out of his league, Cory at least clarified that he fears nothing and would man up if he could. He did say that there may be a possibility that all of us fanatical idiots and this event may be the feature of something he does with Mike Siano on their show. So that means unfortunately perhaps all of you may have to bathe for that night and keep the drinking to a manageable level at least while you're on camera. That, and Roy Ericson will have to keep his pants on... but don't fret, Roy, there are other drafts for that. 
! Another top-notch NFBC competitor representing the Empire State, Nelson is known for his prowess in the NFFC, and once I confirmed that this was a PPR league, we had him. Nelson is a convicted felon in the off-season and is sure to lead the league in most offensive categories including nose hair (a little homage to Mr. Bob Uecker). And in a little perfect twist of fate, Nelson also claims that he is "good friends" with our official thread whipping boy, Mr. Glenn W. Lowy ( the "W" stands for Waffle). I will let him do the honors in welcoming Glenn to the league as official competitor #15.
Absolutely Masstto, Nelson and I are buds. A job well done getting someone like him into this draft as a tank full of sharks like this certainly needs a little chum. Please though, go easy on him. He's got a family.Baseball Furies wrote:And in a little perfect twist of fate, Nelson also claims that he is "good friends" with our official thread whipping boy, Mr. Glenn W.

Yup. Principal Ambrosius told me to man up and then put me in detention.Sack wrote:Glenn actually went crying for help to Principal Ambrosius
Well said as always, Ken. I am going to arrange it so that when Greg draws the draft order for this one, that it's rigged so I end up between you and my other favorite competitor who would just love to be sitting next to me for this draft: Stephen Jupinka.Sack wrote:Welcome aboard Nelson! #14 means we can surely go forward now in finalizing this League!
Gotta continue the Lowy barrage:
"Glenn has actually told me in confidence that he is scared of this league."
You can't really believe him. He says this about every league, but down deep he is a shark! No man registering for a $5,000
and $10,000 draft doesn't believe he can win each and every draft he takes part in. It is all smoke and mirrors! He isn't afraid
of anybody! ( Cept maybe MTM )
Glenn actually went crying for help to Principal Ambrosius ( Doughy - I'm expecting you'll address this in the next Fantasy Camp when you welcome in "the lobbyist" ) about this thread where Greg is welcoming in the new signups.
OK Glenn, time for you to cut the suspense and Man-Up. We all want a piece of you big boy. Do the right thing!
Glenn, your problem isn't the lack of X's, it's the O's...as in zeroes for commitment, participation, reliability, and the number of league titles and the amount of money you're going to win this season.Glenneration X wrote:Too funny Masstto.... but if that were truly me, you'd need a few more X's.
You still have a chance to redeem yourself with a shred of credibility intact should you get permission from your owner to let you off the leash for an extra night 
THIS LEAGUE WANTS YOU IN! So cut the whiny, faux fear routine and round us out at 15 today!

) part, the one I took the time to quote is unfortunately a real concern. With my having made so many huge commitments to NFBC fantasy leagues already this season, I'm tapped out. I even had to sell my Baseball Fury baseball card collection just to afford to register in that $150 slow draft last week (the E-Bay sale got me the last 32 cents I needed to pay the fee ). So you can imagine putting together the funds for a Super I have no chance at cashing in seemed an impossible feat. You read correct my friend.

Glenn - welcome aboard big fella. Just got a whole lot tougher, but it will be a blast. All kidding aside,

What a HOOT this draft is going to be...
whoa, hold up Glenn. Why you gotta diss peoples w/ 2 1st names ?Glenneration X wrote:

Sorry Rockit, while I apologize to Two-1st Name Challenged individuals everywhere, I don't see how it applies to you. While some in 3rd world cultures may use Rockit as a first name, Sauce is pretty much universally considered a last name.rockitsauce wrote:whoa, hold up Glenn.
