Shouldn't Champions also get free entry into the event they won for life? I know the cash and trophy are nice but that would also be a nice touch. (Just thinking out loud here ;) )

Gekko is living fast and hard, so I'm not worried about him.

Josh left the NFFC last year, but hopefully will pay on his own dime next time around.

Welch is only 26 and he's an Army recruiter. No go for him. He's fit enough to live to 126.

You, I'm not sure of. ;) The spirit is there, but I'm not sure if the body is willing. ;)

I think I have another 40-50 years of fantasy football left. I would set the official over/under at 31 more years. Who is going to hold the "action" until I croke?

As far as those teams with partners, only one free entry per Champion. Let's not get crazy here.

I still think it is a good idea and another way to seperate the NFFC/NFBC from the pack. I consider it more like a lifetime exemption from having to pay. ;)

It doesn't even have to be a lifetime exemption. 5 years or 10 years would be appealing.

This sounds like another great incentive and would further your innovative lead on the industry!

As someone mentioned earlier, I am sure that 100k can go pretty fast especially when taxes are invloved, moving you into another tax bracket, etc...

Yep, that 85K gap between 1st OA and 2nd OA needs to get even bigger. :eek:
