Our first official signup for New York of 2007 is none other than Billy Wasosky of Richmond, Virginia, who returns to the Big Apple after a two year absence. Billy competed in New York during our debut season of 2004, but then went to the Windy City the last two years. His magical mystery tour is headed to New York this year as he's currently signed up for the NFFC's main event, the $650 Auction League and the $650 Draft Champions League. Last year, B-Wazz led his BillwayWaz Beasts team to a second place finish in Chicago League 2 and $2,500 as it finished 8-5, while finishing 13th overall with 1,784.95 points. The Beasts then finished 14th overall in the Championship Round with 553.46 points. Bill also led his Draft Champions League to a title as it won the Chicago $650 DC league with 2,675.35 points. Great job Billy last year and best of luck this year in the hunt for the $100,000 grand prize, the $5,000 league prize, the $4,250 Draft Champions League prize and the $4,000+ in auction league prizes.

Next up for New York is our Lifetime Standings leader, Glenn Schroter of Whitestone, New York. Glenn is currently signed up for the NFFC's main event at the New York Hilton on Saturday, Sept. 1st and for the Ultimate League on Sunday, Sept. 2nd. After three years of competition, Glenn leads our Lifetime Standings in the main event as his teams have averaged more than 130 points per week. Last year his Svengali team finished 7-6 in New York League 7 of the main event, placing 67th overall with 1,656.85 points. His Svengali team won the regular season title and $5,000 in the Ultimate League as it tied an NFFC record with a 12-1 mark. Svengali added another $7,500 in the consolation round after losing a first round playoff game. Glenn's King of Queens teams finished out of the money in the New York Draft Champions League and the New York Auction League, but I trust he will be back for more of each league soon enough!

As always, it's good to have you back Glenn and we wish you best of luck in the hunt for the $100,000 grand prize, $5,000 league prize and the $37,500 Ultimate League prize.
