NFBC Message Boards

Just wondering, will the podcast be available for download from Itunes?....I won't be available for the live version.

I think one of your shows regular segments should be called "Bulls and Bears" (players on the rise and those on the way down).

According to the game log on Yahoo, he left tonight in the 3rd inning with a dislocated shoulder......

no problem here....although waiver report seems a little delayed, usually out by 8:30 EST.

The Yankees have just given up 14 runs in the 2nd inning, Welcome to your new ballpark!!

-fortunately I only have him in 1 of my 5 NFBC leagues, unfortunately that 1 league is the main.



make me feel better.....The owners in the other 4 leagues all started him (2 start pitcher this week).

Girardi can you please stop the madness isn't 7 runs enough in 2nd innning?????

what I hate is when a pitcher has gone out and given me 6 strong innings, his team is up 5-0, I'm saying to myself bring in a reliever for the 7th and I'll take my zero earned runs and a good shot for a win. Of course that's not what happens, he ends up staying out there for the 7th and gives up 3 e...

Greg......Is it possible for STATS to have gotten the information on Nady in time for the deadline and because of some sort of "glitch" it's not showing up as him being one the DL? Or do you know for a fact in Nady's case STATS didn't receive any information on Nady in time for the deadline?.....I d...

This is from the Yankees website: 4/16/2009 | More tests scheduled for Nady's elbow Yankees outfielder Xavier Nady met with team doctors prior to Thursday's game, and though the Yankees did not confirm the prognosis that he may need surgery to repair damage in his sore right elbow, they did place hi...

Tom/Greg, acknowledge this issue in another post and they will be taking care of the issue shortly (I believe).

If you start a player for the week, and he ends up going on the DL (officially), before the Friday deadline you can replace him in your lineup for the final 3 days of the week. That's why you see the breakdown in days. Keep in mind you can only swap out players officially on the DL.

anyone else having issues with MLB.com TV?..I've been having choppy/sparadic picture. It works well for 10 min. or so then goes out for a minute or two then comes back. Maybe it's because I'ts opening day and they can't handle the demand.

I don't think you will be seeing these going to 15 teamers. Greg I believe wants to attract some of the more mainstream players who are used to the 12 team structure. Plus with the popularity of the event this year, why change?....you just attracted 600 teams, when you actually thought you would be ...

Blackshirts are you going with the assumption he already has a MDC account?....I was thinking he may not have one.

80% payout I believe $500 payout is.... 1st-4k 2nd-$1500 3rd-$500.

After the draft has been created (look for the announcement on the forum under your date/time) you should be able to access the draft page on MDC and create your rankings list.

Usually with any of the online drafts after you log into the draft, and before the draft starts the moderator will give out a contact phone#.

My understanding is that there will be money for the combined points winner of the two events, plus possibly money for some of the other top combined finishers... My question is when the online event was first introduced it had an estimated turnout of 400 entries. Which would of weighted both events...

The target for saves is 89-94. If you have two top closers you can make it, otherwise you may need 3. Any more then that and you start to give up wins and k's.

Draft day Heroes and Zeroes will be made today, which one are you going to be?......My guess is after today 20% of the Owners will already be out $1300. That's before a regular season game has even been played. I hope I'm not one of them, Good Luck to everyone!!
