Well Greg & Tom, I guess now that FF has ended I can sign up for baseball, count me in for The Main in Vegas. I'm thinking about doing an auction this time too, just not sure which...I'll let you know. Sounds good Jules. Yeah, I think the folks who haven't checked our site since football started will be surprised to see how full things are here already for baseball. Grab an auction league on Friday in Vegas and join us for two days of fun. I'll pay you again if you want to work one of them on Friday as well. Thanks Jules and congrats on a great, great football season.

We now have 15 signed up for the $1,250 Mixed Auction League in Las Vegas on Friday, March 16th at 4 p.m. We'll continue to take signups as I have a feeling we'll be able to fill a second one with 2 1/2 months of time remaining before signups end. Thanks everyone.

We now have our first full league for the main event in Chicago thanks to the return of Jason Aberli of Louisville, Kentucky. We are now working on our 10th league overall for the main event and should get plenty of signups this week. I expect us to begin taking signups for our second main event league in Chicago tomorrow with the arrival of Sandi Kleemann. George, I look forward to that phone call and the discussion of the Bears-Packers game of last night!

We now have 12 teams for the NFBC Ultimate Auction League, thanks to the arrival of the tag team of Todd Zola and Perry Van Hook. That's a pretty formidable team to an already pretty formidable lineup of teams. Awesome and welcome aboard guys. We now have three guaranteed spots left in the Ultimate Auction League in Las Vegas, so don't delay if you're serious about joining this one. Thanks everyone.

We now have 28 signups for the NFBC Ultimate Draft League and 13 for the NFBC Ultimate Auction League. Spots are going fast and we just turned the calendar for 2007. Should be a fun, fun Sunday in March. Welcome aboard Lewis Lipsey and Chris Plouffe as our latest Ultimate League participants.

Greg, I'll be donating again this year...just trying to finalize whether or not I have a partner, and what city...Vegas or Chicago. I should know by the 15th.

It looks like Norm Kent of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida will be joining us for the NFBC Ultimate Auction League in Las Vegas on Sunday, March 18th, which brings us to 14 owners for that live auction at the Flamingo. ONE SPOT LEFT before we close that event out. Wow, what a great group of owners for a solid, solid event. Thanks everyone and welcome aboard Norm.

Ten full leagues for the main event -- 150 teams. Let's get 14 more leagues and we'll be good to go. Thanks everyone.

Looks like the list of signups is missing from this thread. It used to be at the beginning of thread, but it seems to have vanished????

Latham · Post by **Latham** » Sun Jan 07, 2007 5:07 pm

Nevermind, it has re-appeared. That was strange.

We now have 14 Ultimate Draft League members in New York, so there's a good chance that the Big Apple will have its own full Ultimate Draft League this year without a phone!!

Awesome job everyone.

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Thu Jan 11, 2007 11:10 am

We almost have 11 full leagues for the main event. Keep 'em coming everyone.

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Tue Jan 16, 2007 2:59 pm

We now have 15 Las Vegas owners in the NFBC Ultimate Auction League on Sunday, March 18th, the first time we've accomplished that all in one city. William Tyrer of Beverly Hills, California -- an original member of the NFBC -- has signed up to compete in that event to fill it out. It's a great list of owners and that should be a great, great day. Brady Tinker will definitely be the auctioneer for that one, so be prepared as he will keep that auction moving.

We still have two more months until Draft Day, so obviously we'll keep taking signups, but this league looks pretty set. We currently have 45 owners in the Ultimate Leagues as we also have 30 for the Ultimate Draft Leagues in all four cities. Pretty amazing, huh?

Great job everyone and let's keep the signups rolling in as we definitely could get one more Ultimate Draft League before it's all said and done.

We're exactly two months away from Draft Day. Bring it on!!! I'm pumped for baseball RIGHT NOW!!!

Greg,

What is the timing of the Auction Leagues in NYC? Any chance of me being able to do a $1250 and a $650 on Friday? I would be exaughsted but it would be fun!

Chris

We now have six full leagues for the main event in Las Vegas and are on pace to equal or top last year's total of nine out there. Keep the signups coming as we're nearing 13 full leagues among the four cities. Thanks everyone.

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 12:46 pm

We're working on our 14th main event league now and approaching 200 signups (at 198 as of now). Let's keep it going everyone and fill this baby up. Thanks.

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 4:32 pm

We're officially over 200 for the main event as of tonight. Keep 'em coming. Thanks everyone.

If we get to 360 early will you stop and draw leagues and kds right away or go for more than 360 if it's only March 1 or something?

The goal is to have full leagues in each city, so it's possible we'd stop in some cities (Tampa, for instance, if we reached exactly 45) while still taking signups in other leagues. I think we can sell out and fill leagues perfectly and still get everyone draft spots in a timely fashion this year. We'll see if it works that way or not, but folks shouldn't wait until the very end if they know they are coming this year.
