Slow Draft Team Not Showing Up?
Drafted a team awhile ago, but it doesn't show up on my team page...any ideas? I emailed Greg about this but never got a response.

For what it's worth, I agree 100% with all these suggestions.

Hanley OVER Pujols??
Hanley/Butler vs Pujols/Escobar? I too would rather have a 1st rounder and 5th rounder than a 1st rounder and 13th rounder! ;) Pujols/Reyes vs Hanley/AGon might be a more fair comparison though there's really no reason to "have" to grab a MI at the two pick if you draft Pujols first overall. It's al...

The Perfect Draft
Every year I participate in several NFBC Satellites and every year I feel that the last team I draft before opening day ends up looking the best. Probably because I grow more familiar with how I REALLY want my team to look as April grows near. Strategy: Simple - don't reach for anyone and don't punt...

Same problem. Multiple players were bid on and not processed for us. How and when will this be fixed?

Originally posted by FSeibel: My interpretation would be since the NFBC is renting the room out for the day, that if their were outlets they would make sure no one would use them.

Thoughts on my satellite team?
SUPERFLY: Thanks for the comments. I do realize I was fudging a bit with how I was coming up with the numbers, but there really aren't any clear cut ways to look at a team with injured players from last year. And even without the steals from the the Scutaro/Rolen substitutes that team would have sti...

It's just that it doesn't seem to really be against the rules. In the rules it states, "There will be NO Internet connections or electrical outlets, so participants bringing laptops will have to supply their own power." This indicates that there WILL NOT BE OUTLETS. Once outlets are actually present...

Thoughts on my satellite team?
I enjoy the criticism and it will definitely make me look at revamping my strategy but a few key points in regards to my team if only because I think the term "dead in the water" is far from accurate. Hitting: This team last year hit 267 HR with a .289 BA (inserting Rolen and Scutaro for Reyes and G...

Thoughts on my satellite team?
You know, I didn't really care for my pitching either, but it seemed as though every time I went to grab someone they'd get taken right before my pick so I'd have to grab the next guy on my list. But, in my pitching staff's defense, even if you include Chris Young and Latos I would have had a 3.48 E...

Thoughts on my satellite team?
Any thoughts on this team? Mine went like this during the draft, "Crap, I don't have enough power". And that thought ran through my head every single round of the draft from the moment I took Mauer first. I think my power ended up OK at the end, but what do you think? Too many risks? Too few risks? ...

Probably should have ditched one of your MI's and grabbed a CI.

March 4th $250 9PM Satellite League Draft Order
I feel your pain Craig. I'm beating the odds! 15, 10, 11, 5, 3, 12, 7,14, 13 Those are my last 9 draft slots including '08, '09, and '10 seasons. The average is 10 with 6 out of the 9 slots being 10 or lower. I was curious how often a string like this should happen (rather than just gripe about it a...

does clement qualify as a C?
ash: This exact same thing happened to me during my rookie year being involved in the NFBC back in 2006. I drafted Craig Biggio in a mid-season league in the 21st round thinking that he qualified at the position indicated by MDC only to later find out that he did not. The mid-season draft was on a w...

March 4th $250 9PM Satellite League Draft Order
Historically weren't the draft orders usually posted about a week before the drafts took place? Just curious because the last satellite I was in only got the draft order posted two days beforehand. Is there any hope for future satellite league draft orders being posted any sooner than two days befor...

Yeah, 3rd Base was a big problem for us. And I'm always thinking to myself, "Man, if only I didn't draft that lame closer I could have had a real 3rd Baseman!"
Thanks for the comments.
