I think this week, you should change your team name again to Nit Pik. The nag thing is boring. if you change your name to "I Tell Lies", i might consider changing mine.

Gordon, you are the one who said "aspire to mediocrity, you won't be disappointed" for a conversation about the NFFC. It is clearly you who have the problem with this event.

You are saying the current setup is mediocre. furthermore; you have been crying all over the boards about unfairness and how the event is broken and flawed. So you have been crapping all over the NFFC. You argue it until you're red in the face. Do I need to go through the 4538 posts you made saying how everything is wrong with the NFFC?

Now I see you are reverting discussions to grammer. Poor GG....

I see you have not addressed my sarcastic post which shows that Greg DID take into account total points and simple common sense of competition. Everyone knows my feelings about the NFFC, it is a good event and well thought out. I like the structure. Greg did a great job and applaud him for what he has done for the industry.

Sorry my grammer is not up to your level, but here is something you might understand........

YOU ARE WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!! NEXT.........

LOL... typical of you to remember nit pik.

Do you carry a recording device with you at all times?

I did say the program said we all drafted well. BFD.

That doesn't mean that I think you drafted well. It's the FB guys program, and I really like it, but I didn't even have Holmes on my list.

My list was LT, SA, EJ, WM, JJ, Brian Westbrook. FB guys had Westbrook #3 for NFFC.

The top 5 were 3-5-7-10-14. (that's not the order) I just dusted off the lap top and looked. Also, the differences from 1-5 were minute.

The standings now are 3-9-1-7-14.

I do remember several guys asking me about the rankings after the draft. With these programs in FB and baseball, I always say the same thing... My team comes out #1 because it has my projections. So I don't take them too seriously. I have never seen anyone cash a check at the draft table.

I also don't take them seriously because the draft is only one step of many. My last two W's are a result of FAAB pickups.

I also like them because they don't let you nominate players already selected. Ring a bell? LOL.

LOL again the the $$ thing. I've cashed $15k in checks this past month. 8k for NFBC mid baseball, and 7k for repeat in local AL.

One year does not make anyone a great player.

The way I see it, Greg has about 250 REAL GOOD players here. Anyone of them can win at anytime with the right amount of everything falling his/her way. Things certainly haven't fallen your way this year. I had that at the beginning of last year, but came on strong at the end. This year, my guys have all been decent, but not the "Gallowayesque" you need to win something like this.

Nice to see how you skirted the wifey question above. Thanks for not answering the question.

I did say the program said we all drafted well. BFD. you told me this two or three times. too bad we don't have a recording of me saying how i wasn't going to take priest at the ESPNZone and you could have replayed it to me before i selected him. maybe next year.

Thanks for not answering the question. she has spent a couple hundred of what i won. we are planning on buying a much nicer home in the near future and will use the NFFC and NFBC funds to do that. plus, the 35K figure is nowhere close to what i'll net. much to low. sorry if that disappoints some.

[/QUOTE]GG, I the only topic I talk on these boards is the NFFC. I have given no other pwrsonal opinions outside of that realm. I clearly sided with Greg's setup......

Your response was your quoted post above. You implied I aspire to mediocrity......... yet the only thing you have to base that on is my discussions about the NFFC (and my agreement of Greg's setup). So by reason of congruency, what you say about my opinions translates to others who may think the way I think....

Maybe you should drop this before you put your other foot in your mouth.
