Now for the details about the insurance. Here's the link on the site under Learn More:

Fantasy Sports Insurance

A Fantasy Sports Insurance policy for one player is available FREE to each team owner who pays by check for the NFBC Main Event, the NFBC Auction Championship and the NFBC Primetime Championship provided that your payment is received by the due date. This insurance policy is courtesy of the NFBC and FantasySportsInsurance.com.

Here's how Fantasy Sports Insurance (FSI) works:

Designate one player who is on your team and on the Top 100 list provided by FantasySportsInsurance.com for your insurance policy. If that player spends at least 60 days on the disabled list due to an injury in 2014, you will receive payment from FantasySportsInsurance.com for:
League Insurance Amount
NFBC Main Event $320
NFBC Primetime $300
NFBC Auction Championship $240

Last year when this offer was in place for the NFBC, team owners were able to cash in their insurance policies for the following players:

Matt Kemp
Jose Reyes
Roy Halladay
Johnny Cueto
Josh Johnson
Jason Motte

After you have selected the player who you want to insure, FSI will send out a Certificate of Insurance with details of the insurance policy and the associated coverage. Claims will be paid within 30 days of the end of the MLB regular season.

"We are excited to have the opportunity to work alongside NFBC to offer Fantasy Sports Insurance (FSI) for the 2014 MLB fantasy season," said Henry Olszewski, sales, executive at Fantasy Sports Insurance. "Offering FSI to NFBC participants is a fantastic opportunity for us to provide financial peace of mind against that unforeseen, season changing injury. Lessen the blow of losing your key player. Plan...Protect...Play"

NFBC team owners also will have the opportunity to purchase additional insurance for their teams' players through FantasySportsInsurance.com if they draft more than just one injury-riddled player. For those owners, there is a policy for two players who spend a total of 90 days on the DL list and even a policy for three players who spend a total of 115 days on the DL.

Greg, just emailed you my list. You forgot a name on the list from last year. I cashed in on Brandon Morrow.

Yeah, that was just a partial list. There were more players who qualified last year. Trust me, the insurance company lost money on this deal last year, but kudos to them for continuing to do this with us. Take advantage of this deal everyone because a check for $300 or $320 sure eases the pain of a top star going on the 60-day DL.

Greg,

Am I missing something but if you wrote a check for the high dollar leagues you don't get this for free?

Greg,

This is not applicable for Platinum, Diamond, Ultimate and Super. We pushed those prizes higher years ago if everyone agreed to pay via check or cash rather than do this insurance program.

If you paid by check or money order for your Main Event, Primetime or Auction Championship teams, please email me the player you want insurance on by Sunday. We are honoring your insured players through Sunday, as long as they don't suffer a new injury before we get your email. I'm going to send the list to Fantasy Sports Insurance on Monday, so email me ASAP.

Thanks all and good luck.
