Lindy:
This should place you into the NFBC Hall of Fame! First person to log weekly titles in the same season under both formats. Keep the pedal to the floor my friend, great job!
As our friend from Colorado has stated to you in the past..."Stay thirsty my friend!"

Lindy,
Congrats on another weekly title. "Mrs. Bob" must be excited. By the way, Stephen Drew was worth every FAAB dollar. I hope he continues his hot-hitting ways and I am not just saying that because I own him as well.

Congrats again, Lindy!
Your team is on FIRE...zoomed right by everyone the last few weeks!
Two MLB jerseys would have been icing on the cake!
Damn recession.

Damn recession. We're still working with FansEdge.com to get our weekly winners in the NFBC main event MLB Replica jerseys. We just haven't been able to nail down the terms, but the main event winners will get something for their efforts. In 2010, we'll see if we can budget something for the Online Championship weekly winners. But we will get something for the main event winners; we just have to get the right person there to sign off on our agreement.

Lindy Hinkelman Is Week 10 NFBC Winner
This season is quickly turning into one Lindy Hinkelman may never forget.
Already the proud owner of two weekly wins in the Online Championship, Hinkelman added a third to his season total last week as his Bob Enzyte team in Las Vegas League 8 led the way in the NFBC last week with 3,614.5 points.
Big weeks from Torii Hunter (.368-4-8), Troy Tulowitzki (.421-3-5-3), Pedro Feliz (.400-1-6) and Stephen Drew (.286-2-7) led the way at the plate. Chad Billingsley, Josh Johnson and Josh Outman combined for four wins and 30 strikeouts while Huston Street had five saves to lead the pitching staff.
“While live auctions are my favorite fantasy game, going into the Main Event on Saturday morning with 150 other teams (in Las Vegas) is quite the rush,” Hinkelman said. “Greg does a fantastic job in making sure everything is in order.”
After that, it’s all about the owner’s prowess. So far this season, Hinkelman has proven his skills are among the best the NFBC has to offer.
His Draft Day work began with the selection of Albert Pujols with the fourth overall pick. After that, he began working on his specific plan.
“I went for power speed players the next two rounds and grabbed Matt Kemp and Alex Rios,” he said. “I targeted Chad Billingsley, Josh Johnson and Justin Verlander for my starting pitching base and nabbed them in rounds 5, 9 and 11. Closers went early in the draft and I ended up with Kerry Wood in the 7th and Huston Street in the 13th. Other key picks were Torii Hunter (6th), Denard Span (14th), Billy Butler (18th) and Rod Barajas (27th).
Hinkelman’s team has stayed relatively injury free this season and that has played a big part in his team’s success thus far. The Waiver Wire has also been his good friend.
“FAAB has been huge for me so far, as I have acquired Marco Scutaro, Pedro Feliz, Ben Zobrist, Steven Drew and Josh Outman,” he said. “League 8 is a very tough league, as I'm battling Terry Haney and Todd Zola for the top spot. There are also some past league winners and a BP Idol in the league that will be heard from yet.”
