NFBC Message Boards

I would argue that everyone does not have the same ability to win. For one thing, you have the same players going to every team as in any other draft in the world. It's not like some people get super players on the top teams. Though you will get more teams in the middle, rather than top or bottom, t...

Walla:



The keywork about Yahoo was "standard." You can customize a league to any specifications, including those of nfbc. Anyway, it sounds like it would be pointless to do if the stats are updated live.

I vote A. Or at least don't attach names to the other bids.

It does help. Thanks. As for viper's comment, I must confess that I know who goes when. Last year, I think I got all my favored picks except one. It's not that hard if you put a little research into it. I concede that it probably helps if you think many of the 5th round picks are better than 2nd rou...

Oh, wow, so I can count on getting my draft position, what, e-mailed to me about a week before the draft? It's important because I'll build my team based on which player I can get in the first round.



Thanks for all the help, btw.

1) How is draft order and who is in each league determined? Is it random and I'll find out the day of the draft? Does it depend on when I signed up? 2) Should I already have a user name and password to get into the site? I do not have one. 3) How big is the big board? My eyes are neither perfect nor...

I certainly don't feel like I don't have the time to put into a daily transaction league--I'll be hanging on every move my team makes--but weekly transactions work far better. In daily transaction leagues, you have to keep on putting in and taking out pitchers to maximize your starts. This means you...

Is there any way you can show last year's draft results for one of the leagues? I've certainly never been in a 15 person 5 OF league before so I'm trying to figure what is left after 22 rounds.

We're not in the business of being GM's. Okay, maybe GM's of a fantasy team but it's a different sport altogether. You'd be starting a slippery slope where we decide we have to include defense and take away stolen bases and wins and saves. I wouldn't choose the same players as a real GM as I do as a...

Thanks for all the help guys. I'm sure I'll sign up before long.

Thank you. That's extremely helpful. Can anyone give me the numbers on the overall winner?

I am seriously considering playing next year but a litlle info would be very helpful. How many homeruns did the overall winner have on the year and how many did winners of individual leagues typically have? Also, similar info about the other stat categories would be very helpful.
