Win A Free Main Event Entry Friday Night On Fanduel

Post by Greg Ambrosius » Thu May 22, 2014 10:20 am

Okay, we'll try this again this week at $25 per team, 72 spots available with a winner-take-all prize of a 2015 NFBC Main Event entry. Geoff at Fanduel.com promises a quicker return with the URL tonight, so look for it during tonight's games. I'll post it as soon as I get it and hopefully we can sell this one out tonight with only NFBC members. Thanks all and good luck.

Here is the link for this week's contest:

https://www.fanduel.com/e/Game/MLB_Sala ... e1132c8bf9

Past winners of a free NFBC Main Event entry in 2015 include:

1. Bryan Sannito
2. Todd Zola
3. Jonathan Kent
4. Anthony Palavis/Eric Burd
5. Michael Leone

Good luck to all this Friday night.

:?
FanDuel has a different $25 game open for Friday already so any delays shouldn't relate to salaries as they appear to have been locked in already.

Just sayin'

Sure, we could. All teams play on Tuesdays and Fridays, most at night. As long as we can fill a league up, I'll offer it any night.

Only 17 entries -- let's keep this NFBC only and fill it up!

Something you can do to make sure you are entered before it fills is enter a quick lineup now - don't worry if it's any good, just lock in your team.

Then later, you can go back and edit it with the players you want.

Of course, only do this if you KNOW you'll have the time to come back and edit it.

I am in. Let's fill it up....
Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.

Yikes. Hopefully we'll get enough interest to fill this or it will be tough to keep offering these going forward. Thanks all and good luck tonight.

I have no idea why this doesn't fill up in a few hours. $25 to save $1600, and all you hafta do is beat about 70 other teams....certainly not impossible. Guys you don't hafta be condia, headchopper, or primetime420 to win in daily action and since this competition is all your fellow NFBC it's not like a huge FD tourney (like say the $25 Strikeout) filled w/ multi-wiseguy entries. YOU HAVE A GREAT SHOT AT THIS.

As Todd mentioned you have until the very last SECOND before the game starts to edit your l/u's...believe me I have been there..many times.

Here is my advice on DFS -

1. bare minimum - go to rotogrinders dot com, good strategy articles, injuries, weather, lineups...all you need really.

2. twitter - i follow a List of MLB beat writers to make sure i'm the 1st to know of late scratches (about 30 min's ago I swapped out Jaso b/c he's out tonight)

3. weather - you can just avoid any place that looks like weather may be a problem, but in the past I've benefited from doing my own research.

4. HR's & K's - get those get $

Only 57 entries with 25 mins to go...

I'm thinking of starting Kyle Blanks tonight.
Can anyone beat me and 55 others to take home the prize?

Here's the lineup YOU gotta beat:

VMart
Brandon Moss
Josh Harrison
Matt Carpenter
Everth Cabrera
Allen Craig
Nelson Cruz
Yasiel Puig

and

Tom Koehler

See you in the top-10 again, guys!

Congrats to David Anthony for winning this week's Fanduel contest and the 2015 NFBC Main Event entry. It's great to see so many different NFBC owners earning Main Event entries through this weekly contest. Thanks all for filling this one up at the last minute. We'll do this again on Friday night. Thanks again all and congrats David.

Thanks Dan & Russ. Too funny Steve...if I was a DFS pro you'd DEFINITELY see me in Vegas next yr. But I'm just a ham n egg'r dealing w/ the mcjesters of the world....certainly no Trent Steele 8-)

everyone wants to see the rockit in person again, I get it :lol: , but this one was for Joe. If we win about 3 or 4 more of these maybe I'll meet him there :twisted:
