I already announced that we filled one Auction League in Las Vegas and we'll continue to take applications for another one, with Joseph Jefferson already leading off that league with a signup last night. Here's the list of 14 owners we have right now and they would comprise this league if we don't fill another. If we do get 14 more Auction League signups for Las Vegas, we'll put all 28 names in a hat and randomly select the two leagues. Best of luck everyone and keep those signups coming as there's still time to get this done.

Just curious, which of these guys are Leaderboard Sports guys. I know Cush is. Where are all the others?

That's it. Dave is still recruiting, but the turnout is lower for football than baseball. Maybe you guys just bashed them too much in baseball. Dyv can explain, but I have a feeling a few more will arrive before all is said and done.

I noticed a few "Leaderboard Sports" team names listed in the top 50 or so overall in the NFBC. I don't remember seeing too many Leaderboard names in the bottom 100 or so. I wonder if they change their team name to LeaderboardSports.com only if they are doing well? I'm not saying that's wrong, only curious.

Not intentionally - my team was 11th overall, I changed the name to Leaderboardsports, we fell 3 spots... I changed it back... we're now up to 9th overall. I think we'll stay Dyv & Espo. Call me superstitious.

We'll probably only have 3-4 teams in football. Two main reasons - timing is getting a lot of people and we just laid out some bones for our website that put people's discretionary cash out for a couple of months

Keep in mind we're just a 'club' - I don't control any of these guys - they all make their own decisions. Matter of fact, we kick each other around so much in our own leagues that it's refreshing to go out and sample some new contests at times... ;)

I'll try to find that full list of Leaderboard teams later today and re-post status. I don't believe anyone has changed their name all season except me over a week ago and now back to original.
