Yes. Dave Gawron is in Chicago, Brian Walton is in New York, Viper is in New York (although technically a free agent writer now) and Scott Zeidman is in Las Vegas. They are represented more than any other industry web site for the second straight year.

We are all also writing weekly columns right now. I suppose they will continue throughout the year but I'm not sure. Each week, we alternate on an NFBC topic of our choice. They come out in the free newsletter each Tuesday but prior ones can be found in the Baseball Articles Archives. I will be the March 1 columnist.

Being in Chicago I guess I better re-read all Daves articles. I was hoping to go Head 2 Head with Viper, as he is a good read. Being a newbie, I was wondering about the amount of chat on the league message boards. Can I expect to see long-winded posts.

No need to confuse me with the facts. My stuff is much more interesting when I make things up.

OK, I imagine that CREATiVESPORTS.com might get mad at me for posting this days before it will be available to the general public, but I am off to Vegas and won't have time to post on Tuesday.



So, here is the latest CS report on the NFBC, as well as a look at some of those who post often.



Don't worry Walla, nothing about you at all.

http://www.creativesports.com/newsmanag ... zoneid=131 Interesting, neither he Mark Srebro or Jason Emma are listed in the roll call. Not that I am really worried about I would actually like to end up in his league.

For what it is worth, my column had nothing to do wtih Todd Zola. Mr. Zola's team was called "Fat, Drunk and Stupid" from day one, and was never "Phoning It in Since June."

"Phoning it in Since June" was in Las Vegas League #4 last year and had the 15th draft slot...for what it is worth.
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.
