2011 Draft Las Vegas Hotel thoughts

So I try to keep my costs as low as possible. Here are some suggestions. 1. Rent a 4-5 bedroom house in Las Vegas for ab...

Can we PLEASE get an update?

Greg, Not even sure you'll be able to read this message. I'm really sorry for what happened. I know NFBC/NFFC is your baby and you take great pride in your work. But business is business. As a long time supporter of NFBC it's a drag to have an opening day start like this. I don't think the client sh...

Ultimate Auction League Is All Set

Thanks Greg,

For for the April 9th deadline... This will give owners a chance to think about KDS and get their payment in..I'm sure it was a mistake.

Here comes Motte ...

His 1st pitch I thought was going to be caught but it went for a double. Then he had to face 5 lefthand batters in a row. 0-2 pitch to Wilson was a killer to Motte owners. He was just 1 pitch away from his 1st save. I think being 26 and being nothing short of fantastic the last 2 yrs plus he throws ...

Great auction. Lots of great moments. 1. FUDD being my partner. He brought a lot of knowledge to the table. Early in the auction, he told me that I wasn't bidding on players that I didn't want.
