I can't wait to draft Turner! I hear he's been working out really hard.

One more new this year: Draft Champions Leagues will start 30 minutes after the league fills and draft spots will be announced 15 minutes after the league fills. 4. Draft Drafts will take place online at playnfbc.com from November through March. Participants can enter as many Draft Champions league...

Okay, you're in! Just confirm your name for the list. Thanks!

Hey Mike. I am Captain Crunch (Dorian Kinman)
Actually tried to change that to my initials or something but couldn't find where I could change username. (I'll put that out there in case somebody knows )

I guess I should say that I'm not interested in leaving any baseball conversation or draft times. But I would even get there a day early or stay late...whatever.

Dough's yearly grief has finally got to me and I plan to participate in the main this year. While Chicago would be much more convenient, a trip to Vegas doesn't sound too bad. I was curious if there is a group that gets out to play golf?

To me, the biggest surprises of the draft were by the same drafter. Mondesi in round two was a major surprise. He showed well in his time up in the Bigs, but man, that is a large leap of faith! The other was Marquez in the fourth round. I know, I know, he has the strike out appeal and looked great,...

Thanks Dan,

You always make a draft more fun. Yes, I will set some of this aside for the Main. Hope you are in the running for 2nd

Yes, I am whining. I hope not, but I could lose over $25,000 that would have been mine yesterday. But I was wondering if NFBC even checked into matters once this kind of thing became legislated. I'm no lawyer and perhaps naive to gambling in general but I would think games of chance under legislatio...

ahhh...thanks

Maybe this changes later but I just went in the draft room to set a queue and it looks like it's set to take off at 4 am ET

Sorry I missed it...love these. However,I may have been a holdup with my schedule this week so couldn't pull the trigger. Look forward to the future ones.

I started a queue via html on my iPhone yesterday. This is the first time I've created a queue on the phone. Last night when I logged onto my laptop and got on via flash I was surprised that the queue didn't cross over (I thought they communicated, somehow...the queues I create on flash always show ...

I'm fine with Mike's suggestion, as well. In fact, that is probably the best solution...until somebody doesn't play nice. Whatever you think is best Greg.

I'll start this off. One question...does the clock stop for sleeping hours or is it 4 hours continual? Dorian Kinman It stays on. If folks wanted us to extend the clock to 8 hours overnite to accomplish the same thing we could do that. Just a thought. Okay, I'll add you to the list. Thanks If you'r...

The hope is that this will be appealing to the vast majority (and I believe it will). So that, in the end, the fast/slows are nearly the same makeup as they are now. When the majority switches over to this more enjoyable format the fast/slows won't consistently consist of "the old guard." But we wo...

After considering this I believe Doughboy is right. That should be no surprise...I've never known him to be wrong ;) Eight hour and four hour distinctions are fine but won't change people's nature. This may even provide more attraction to those who like to use 'others frustration' as a strategy. If ...

I am for one hour as an option (with the clock turned off for sleeping hours). The 48 hour draft was extreme but this last one took 4 days and was quite reasonable. Those involved still worked and we only exceeded an hour a few times (illness, firemen on calls...quite understandable). A one hour clo...

Having suffered through some painfully slow drafts, if fast/slows were offered I would commit to them 100%. The recently completed fast/slow was the most enjoyable NFBC draft I have taken part in (was not in the mentioned 48 hour draft, but it sounds awesome). Offering both Fast/slow and leisurely/s...

I have emailed Greg and Tom replacing KJ with Mark. This may mean getting a late start tomorrow and getting into full swing on Tuesday. But there was already a Monday afternoon issue anyway. I'm sure everybody understands. This thing will still fly.
Dorian

Hey Dorian, nice work on this. I have nine cell numbers for this group already. Need yours and the others to ensure the best facilitation possible if you're interested in my unique services. :mrgreen: Dan sent you my number. I'm not used to the PM thing. I will email and text. We can exchange what ...
