I have registered. Thanks for putting together.

Please add me to auction DCs. Thank you

Given the specific time frames in this event, should probably define what happens if there is a postponement of a game in progress.

What if we handle it like an early start in Australia or Japan, but with FAAB. Hold the first FAAB at the end of Week One, but let the players won in FAAB auction count in Week One scoring. Run the scores after FAAB is completed.

The one thing that sticks out to me for this year is the April 5th FAAB date. Many of us will be traveling back home from Vegas or other locations or with family on that Easter weekend. If the goal is to create a game that requires little work, except on a few weekends during the season; this partic...

Got mine from the second batch! Super fast as always. Thank you!

Mike,
I would enjoy the opportunity to participate in the event and discuss the results over the following week! Thanks for organizing the unique event!

I think there a couple of factors that would help Auction Championship going forward. First and foremost, the mass of players have to feel comfortable in the auction format. My first year in the NFBC, the Auction cost was $650 and Greg offered a few $250 online leagues, much like Todd and Dan did th...

What about a bonus for the Auction Championship and Main Event? Two different skills for the 15-teamers.

Dan-
I will jump into Feb 19th. I will also take the 2nd alternate on the first draft, if available. Thanks for organizing. Yeah, I would jump into both on Feb 14/15, but my wife would leave me.

Could not agree more

I have an idea pertaining to the "best ball" format. I am assuming we are using best ball of the weekly total score for the players per position, based upon the original proposal. What about a little twist to make it more interesting... How about taking the best ball on a nightly basis? In this cas...

I really like this idea. My passion is for the 15 team leagues; but to add additional teams and drafts at the spur of the moment this winter scratches an itch that I did not know I had. I like best ball. Can add more teams, without managing the twice a week roster changes. To that end, would it be d...

If I were drafting today, I have to agree that taking Kershaw seems like a strong, consistent 1st round pick. His arm might blowup one day, but I don't think that it will be next year. Given track record, he is the only pitcher I take in round one (Dodger bias or not). I also see Kipnis as a late ro...

Matt Kemp will be a 'value pick'. One of those players that hardly anybody entering a draft intends on taking, but in the third or fourth rounds, his possibilities start measuring up along other outfielders. His drafter will cry "VALUE PICK!" While other drafters are happy that it's not THEIR 'valu...

As a Dodger fan, I am hoping this "brawl" was a team-building event that sparks some fire under their over-paid feet. But then I read this quote, laugh and realize that the Dodgers are running a M*A*S*H unit and not a baseball teaam. But I had to laugh and share... "It got pretty ugly," Montero said...

This will be a fun league. My first order of business will be to go and order Shawn's book to ensure he sticks to his rankings. Everytime he picks out of order, we can yell "shill". :) Second, I will try and get the $1400 KJ "stole" from me in the last inning of last season. Clearly, I am still bitt...

i will jump into a mok if anyone puts one together.

Greg,

Please sign-up Charlie Casey and Neal Moses up for the event.

Greg,

Thanks. SInce this sold out over a week ahead of time, any chance we can set the KDS deadline before this weekend and get the draft order to play with over the weekend?

I would be good for Friday Feb 8th @ 8:00 EST. That time seemed to work well for most that evening.

Based on Greg's note yesterday, it needs to fill by 2:00- 2:30 EST tomorrow. They have to create the league, sign everyone up, and run the KDS.

Looks like we have 7 so far! Jump on everyone, I already have a baby sitter lines up!
