Leaderboard vs. WORLD Challenge

vs.

LeaderboardSports formally invites you to play in a challenge league format as an Official NFFC Satellite league.

Essentially, this will be a 7 on 7 challenge. LeaderboardSports vs. "The World"

7 of us
7 of you

TWO different leagues, so we need 14 WORLD gamers to step up and try.

These will be $100 entry fee leagues, winner take all for a free main event entry in next year's NFBC or NFFC.

We will use FAAB Bidding for draft spots (details to come with examples and a worksheet to fill out)

The draft dates are tbd and will be announced on Friday, 8/19.

The "Challenge" format works in that we all play for ourselves for league cash. BUT, the top 5 Leaderboard and top 5 "World" scores in each league will be added together to determine if Leaderboard can beat the World or if the World can bring Leaderboard to humility.

There is a rumor, just a rumor, mind you - that Greg and Tom may suit up for this challenge.

If the WORLD teams beat Leaderboard's finest then we will pay out swag to reward the champions. Hats or Shirts or Tote Bags - we'll put together a prize kit for the top 5 World Finishers if they can beat Leaderboard's top 5 in each league.

Is Leaderboard really 'all that'? Come find out.

The gauntlet is thrown. Pick it up.

Count Team Thompson in if "The World" needs a player.

Thanks,

Unbelievable theft of a great idea. I remember suggesting this around baseball's AllStar Break.

Royalties, Dyv. Royalties!

My slate is full Dyv, but I whipped one of your boys (or girls) in the Fantasy Jungle last year, so my money (since I can't do it) is on the world!

I like it, I like it. Rumor has it that Dyv has lined up 12-14 Leaderboard Sports guys already. Now it's time to fill out the World team. We're shooting for the draft next Friday, Saturday or Sunday, whichever works best for everyone. Tom and I will participate if needed and throw down the cash for this to help the World (or LBS). I'll even see if I can find some memorabilia lying around the office to give to the opposing side should they defeat our team!

Let the games begin!

I'm interested as well depending on the draft date.

We'll firm up the dates/timse here later today, just post an interest for now and then we'll fill it up.

Dave has suggested two separate draft dates to get everyone in. I'm shooting for Friday, Aug. 26th and Sunday, Aug. 28th. Sound good? If you can make either one and want in at $100 per, post here and we'll tackle payments after we've filled it up. Thanks guys.
