NFBC Message Boards

I think allowing hitter only moves on Friday would be simplest to implement. It would also allow managers to replace players who lost their jobs earlier in the week. I know there is a large vocal contingent who don't want to do anything with their teams but once a week, but there are also many who w...

Greg,

Do you have a block of rooms for us at a cheaper price? What is the code? Current rates for the Stardust for that weekend are $250 to $300 a night.

I would have liked Tampa but not after Greg said no Auction drafts there.

Fantasy baseball was never meant to be like real baseball or we wouldn't have 2 catchers, CI's, MI's, 5 outfielders, and we would be making daily roster moves. I don't understand people wanting to change the rules to make it more like real baseball and then cry bloody murder if someone suggests dail...

I have to agree with Greg and Dyv on this one. Owners should be allowed to make any roster dumps they wish for whatever hunches they wish to play, but those dumped players that most owners would love to have should not be available to be added to an already strong team in that league, it would be an...

We're talking about free agent bids Dyv, you've got to keep up. We can't keep waiting on you. Don't make me stop this car and come back there and smack you.



Did Herges get traded to the AL??

I guess LV 9 wasn't so dumb after all for only bidding $17 on him.

Originally posted by Dyv: Actually, bi-weekly moves would be very stupid. That's moves every 2 weeks as opposed to moves every week as it is now. I think you're all arguing the merits of semi-weekly transactions. For the record - any system which allows for the swap out of injured players (thereby r...

I think the time has come (2006) for at least Twice-weekly roster moves. The lame excuse of "some of us have lives and can't check our team but once a week" is ridiculous. Anyone who doesn't check their team more than twice a week is wasting their money anyway and we'd be doing them a favor by runni...

If it includes the auctions it's true because some don't have enough well bodies to field a team.

What a pal that Dyv is

You will get a log in name and an invite to the mock draft site. Greg has been on the other message board all day in a chat session.

Very generous of you Jim. I'm sure you'll get some takers from some of the late signups once they see how high the few available rooms are going for that weekend.



Hey Greg, any chance we could go a week later next year to get away from the conventions and high rates in Vegas?

Here is a website that will give you random orders for any number league members.

While Greg is running around like a cockroach when the lights come on to find more space for Las Vegas, the smart money players dreaming of the neon lights in Vegas will be claiming one of the last 22 spots in the 8 leagues guaranteed.



Better not delay any longer.

Just remember I told you so.

Every variation of every strategy will be used multiple times. The secret to winning is simple. Every year there are middle round picks who perform like first rounders, see Adrian Beltre, Johan Santana and Ben Sheets, late round picks who perform like middle rounders, see Mark Lorretta, Jake Peavy, ...

Someone evidently tried to dominate the pitching stats and tried to fill in with hitting later thinking it easier to find hitters later. Just the opposite of what the overall winner did in the same league where he concentrated on hitting and filled in with pitching. It worked very much to the advant...

I've done the WCOFB draft which was set up exactly the same as the NFBC with three managers and it was no advantage. It just created more questioning of decisions,"Who should we take here this guy, no I like this guy, yea but we need this guy", the old too many cooks cliche. It can be bad with two b...

Greg, Try the Swan and Dolphin Hotels at Epcot Center in Disney World. They were built for conventions and are not owned by Disney. Also the Disney owned Coronado Springs resort was built for conventions and room rates are less than we're paying at the Rio. There are also several large non Disney ho...

It will never happen. When you get to $500,000 Walla Walla will kidnap you, get all your money in ransom, and then dump your body in the river. Where you will be swimmin' wit da fishes while I take home the check to pass 1 million in earnings.

Too many numbers, too complicated :rolleyes: War is Bad Killing is Bad The MidEast has been at war for 3000 years and will be for the next 3000 years. They live in the dirt and there's nothing else to do. I am convinced if George had it to do all over we would not be there now. There is no way we ca...

Wow Wala why don't you just tell us how you really feel.



You sail along for awhile then bang out of the blue you go postal on us.



Frankly you scare me.
