Re: Nfbc app

The live scoring and standings tabs seem to work on Android but no set lineup as mentioned.

Re: Drafting 14 and 15

I was that fellow and certainly meant no offense to the drafter who took Harvey at 15. I was commenting on how I think the Met starters are being overdrafted some this year. I don't mind going SP there, but like Scherzer much better in that spot, although that is personal preference. As for picking ...

Re: A New DC Draft- SOLD OUT

Love this format Dough. In Florida with the fam for spring break this week, but would jump into another if you could squeeze one in b4 the season. If not, definitely next year!

Re: 2016 NFBC Early Draft Results

Wait till you see the Bottom of the first in the Main Events. Any player that has an adp of 15 to 40 is fair game. Knowing that if that selection is not made then, they won't see them coming back. I get it Dan. If you like a guy, draft him when you can. No one likes the Mets starters more than me, ...

Re: SOLD OUT: 1st 4 HOUR Draft Champions League

We've definitely hit a few rough spots and had some frustrations, but we've also had great chat, great picks (not by me), and a bunch of really great guys. Now, I know that 23 rounds in 4 days is barely half-MTM speed, but it's also not chopped liver as my grandmother used to say. While it's been ug...

Thanks Greg, Tom, and IT for the lightning quick turnaround! We auctioned last night and are reserve round drafting today.

Re: New Years 4 Hour Draft

As Tom said, set your KDS preferences tonight, look for draft spots tomorrow and at 1:00 tomorrow Tom will pause this league. Hopefully he can set it up early on New Year's Day for you to start at 11 am ET. That's a wee bit early post NYE for us mountain folk :shock: , but I'll be ready and raring ...

Re: Prizes To Go Out On Friday

The eagle has finally landed in Fort Collins! Our mailmen out here must be high or something. Anyway, given we have the same first name, I was hoping my check would be mixed up with Gekko's, but no such luck. :P It's OK though, I'll take my (much) smaller check and look forward to drafting with you ...

Re: They can meet me 60' 6" away

Putting aside the game last night and whether the Mets end up coming from behind and winning the world series, Noah Syndergaard did something last night that is very rare. He owned up to throwing high and inside to Escobar on the first pitch, backing him off the plate. He didnt say the ball slipped...

Re: LET'S GO METS!

What a special night. Had the chance to watch a Mets playoff game with my parents for the first time (left for college in September of 86). My mom and I both woke up and asked each other if it was a dream. It's real and it's spectacular. DeGrom was gutsy, Familia was nasty, and Murphy was sublime. C...

Re: Chaseing Wussification

Some are calling Chase Utley 'dirty'. To me, 'dirty' could be defined as the act of going out of one's way to cause harm to another. Sorry Dan, but Utley did just that. He clearly went out of his way (i.e., making no attempt to touch the base and starting his slide after passing the base) with an a...

Re: MLB Wildcard

Similar to KJ's idea, how about a best 2 of 3, all played at the WC team with the best record? They could play it on Monday-Wednesday and still keep the rest of the playoff schedule. This would save the need for an extra day of travel and give the team with the better record a bigger advantage than ...

Re: Wilmer Flores, the Mets, and my Grumpiness

Dough, I'm as cynical as you about baseball, have been since Doc was suspended for coke in 87. However, I was happy for the kid, a kid who wants to be a Met. The Mets are owned by a bunch of clowns, so my joy was not for them, but for the team that I've been rooting for since I was a kid. In the cra...
