We have:

If we can't fill Chicago perfectly, the last signups would be hooked up with the Windy City participants, unless someone volunteered to be hooked up that way. There are a couple of owners who may want to do that, so don't despair. But if you want a spot in our signature event for a shot at the $125,000 grand prize and $6,500 league prizes, then you better jump in soon. We're not waiting much longer to close this out and 405 teams would be another great, great year.

We can always hold out hope that we get one more Main Event Online on March 29th, but we aren't going to wait around if these last leagues fill perfectly. It's time to jump in folks or get left behind.

The same is true for the NFBC Primetime, which is on pace for 240 teams and 20 leagues. That leaves a good ROI for everyone as the overall prizes were based on a handful more leagues. But again, it's still a great, great year for that contest and we look forward to awarding one of our great owners with the $100,000 grand prize.

Thanks all and let's close out these Mains. What a great year thanks to the best baseball minds in the industr

Kenny Enfield grabbed a Main Event Online on Saturday, March 29th, bringing us closer to 27 full leagues. We now have 3 full leagues online and will keep taking signups there as we still need to hook up with those last 3-4 teams in Chicago. Sign up online if you still want a guaranteed spot in this last league. Thanks all and good luck.

Looking at sign ups and trying to figure if the main event is sold out or how many spots left where for this weekend... Anyone know?

I am pretty sure the remaining spots are either in Chicago or online March 29th

Okay, now that all First Weekend live events have been completed, it's time to finalize the Second Weekend events today. We have picked leagues and draft spots for the March 29th Mains already and announced them as we do have 405 teams right now. We just have to finalize one last league there that hasn't had draft picks announced. We do have a couple of extra signups over 27 full leagues and have left Registration open for the Main Online to see if there is continued interest for one last Online league. However, we also have to fill out the final Primetime leagues and will see if we can accommodate everyone live and Online for both events.

We'll get all of this announced today. Thanks for your patience all and contact me at [email protected] if you have interest yet in the Main Event or Primetime. There's an outside shot at spots yet. Thanks.

[Greg Ambrosius]

We have received a handful of signups today for the March 29th Main Event Online. We are still a ways away from filling up a 28th league, but there is potential here. We're going to keep this open for a possible final league. I'd say we have 7 owners right now and still some interest from others. If you are considering a shot at the $125,000 and can do this Online, let me know. We may just have one more league for a 10th straight sellout. How cool would that be?

[Greg Ambrosius]

Okay, we officially have 7 owners signed up for the NFBC Main Event Online League that could still form before Saturday. We also have 3 other owners who are very interested. We'll try to finalize this as much as possible today, but here's the current signup list if you have interest in this one. We're happy to add one more and sell this one out at 420 teams. Thanks all.

Greg - I'm still bitter about having josh johnson on a slew of teams. Maybe this league could be for people who have buyer's remorse

Please put me down as tentative. Since I won't have a laptop with me, I'm not sure how I would draft effectively. Any chance of having any help in that depRtment? Thanks

Steeves - looks like we can do battle again. U got me in football last year with the Peyton manning pick. I'll try to return serve in this league!

[Greg Ambrosius]

We got a little more interest today, but we're still at 9 teams, 6 SPOTS LEFT!!!

Give us another day to make phone calls and we'll try to sell out this last Main Event league. That would put us at 420 teams and 28 full leagues. We think we can still do it, but give us a little time. Thanks all.

6 SPOTS LEFT!!!

Chris King of Austin, Texas drafted a Main Event Online on Saturday, but he just booked a trip to Las Vegas and wants to join us live at the Bellagio. We want him too, so he just signed up for the Main Event that we're filling now. That gives us three here in Vegas. Stay tuned, but this is working out.

Here's the list of extras for one more league. We're going to fill it up now, so jump in soon if you want one final crack at the $125,000 grand prize. Thanks all and good luck.

THE NFBC MAIN EVENT IS SOLD OUT!!!

For the 10th straight season, the NFBC Main Event has SOLD OUT!! Prizes were based on 420 teams this year and we have hit the mark with the sellout of our last Online League. Sorry about being out of touch last night, but we were monitoring five Main Events Online, a dozen-plus Online leagues and Tom was flying solo on our STATS Fantasy Advantage radio show. It was a crazy, crazy night.

By the time all was said and done, we had SOLD OUT the NFBC Primetime League we still had open and we SOLD OUT this last Main Event League. In fact, we have three extras for the Main, so folks are on stand-by. We definitely are not going past 420, so Registration for the Main Event has been shut off. We need to finalize KDS with everyone here and then we'll post draft spots for this last league by early afternoon.

Thanks so much everyone for another record year. It's great to see the Main Event at 400+ teams for the fourth straight season. Just an amazing season together everyone. This is without a doubt the greatest bunch of fantasy baseball players on the planet. Good luck all.

Here's the lineup card for that last league with draft results coming shortly:
